My anger right now can't be fully understood.

This guy called Ogunvic (Ogunleye Kayode) is the most foolishly proud, arrogant and irresponsible person I have ever met.

I'LL TRY TO EXPLAIN IN DETAILS


Towards the end of last year December I was fortunate to meet the Mech Specialist Mr Gazzuzz who sold me a faultless Tokunbo Toyota Corolla. After negotiations and all documents handed over I decided to meet Ogunvic and try out his over exaggerated Fleet Management.

We scheduled a couple of meetings and a few calls and in all he was very boastful about the system he runs and kept guaranteeing its 'foolproof'. Here's a summary of his terms and conditions:

Partner to handle all maintenance and mechanical faults.
Repairs to be handled by the insurance company will be treated "DULY".
FleetXpert agrees to "Notify" partner of any mechanical problems with the vehicle.
Partner provides "N30, 000 worth of Fuel + Total Card"
Partner to provide driver with
A Brand New Phone
Spectranet 4G Modem
Car Charger

In the event of unfortunate events Fleetexpert pays Partner 60% of whatever driver makes after fuel cost deduction "before the unfortunate event".

After he then added an eye sore that Partner to pay N20,000 Driver Registration Fee which was not included in the contract. I specifically told him that's not possible cuz I see no reason for such from the partner.

As at the time I had no cash on me for all he listed and I asked him to handle the 15k Spectranet, 30k fuel, 1k total card and getting fire extinguisher, car wash and floor carpets and car charger (estimated around 10k) totaling approximately 56k. I told him to deduct 20k off the weekly agreed till its fully paid off and he reluctantly agreed. I went ahead and got his specified phone.

Being concerned about my car and its usage plus stories I read here on Nairaland about car theft and vandalism since most drivers don't have gated parking space. I asked him to search for a driver living around the mainland (preferably any in and around Surulere, Akoka, Anthony, Maryland, Isolo) and for security I asked the car be parked in my office complex which was by the bus stop expressway so it's easy for the driver to come out and pick up. With this I can also keep an eye on the conditions of my car. This offer was obviously turned down. He gave his reasons so I agreed.

I further asked if whenever I needed to use the car for work delivery or outing the driver could assist with discounted payment for service rendered and he agreed.

All doubts crosschecked I made up my mind to entrust him with the car regardless. On Friday 5th of January I handed over the car. He agreed to get a driver and do all necessary arrangements for the car to begin work as soon as possible.

Next day I checked my tracker and saw series of movements between Magboro in ogun state, lekki, ilupeju and ikeja. I called him to ask if he got a driver and didn't let me know but he wasn't picking so I asked Mr reliable Gazzuzz and he explained to me that he lives in magboro, works around ilupeju and has an office in lekki. So I relaxed even with sadness about the car gaining so much miles and no money to show. Kayode later called and with a tone said he wasn't going to continue with me. I called back apologized and explained my concern and we resolved the matter. He said he'll try to get a driver soon.

On Monday 8th he informed me he got a driver (Emmanuel Offikwu) staying at Agege and he's concluding discussions. So with hope work will start. According to the driver he started work on Thursday even though tracker shows lekki movements Wednesday and overnight. I found out later from Driver that the day he collected the car he took it to a mechanic to fix the silencer cuz it was damaged by Ogunvic and he kept it from me (remember the agreement signed). Now I kept silent.

By Tuesday 16th I called Ogunvic Kayode and asked for an update on my pay. He said driver made around 57k and he would make calculations and give me a breakdown. I said ok and waited. 2 days later nothing sent. I called and he said busy and I should remember I owed him. I still said no problem let me just know the breakdown so I know whats left or not. But by weekend kayode still didn't send anything.

Now according to kayode, driver remits monday evenings, he makes calculations and sends money to partners on Tuesdays. So by Tuesday I was hopeful I'll get a call this time.

In the evening around 6pm, I got a call from the driver and the news was he had an accident. While reversing he bashed into another car at lekki. Matters escalated and the car was in the police station. I asked since when he said on Sunday 21st. I asked if kayode was informed he said yes, on Monday. He said he was trying to handle the matter quietly but since it'll involve the insurance company to fix he decided to call me. He also told me he made 80k+ and gave Kayode 60,000 and he bought 7k full tank and 4k extra in keg. After his call I called Kayode and without blaming him for not telling me as per the contract I asked what he was doing to resolve it. He said he would call the other car owner and negotiate for car to leave station for repairs. I said ok no problem. I immediately called the insurance company (Axa Mansard) and with no hesitation the very nice lady (Taiwo who I also got from Mr Reliable Gazzuzz) said no problems, I should provide pictures of both cars, police report and repair estimates and that in a few days it'll be done. I smiled and thanked God for insurance.

Next morning Wednesday around 10am I called Kayode to ask how far, he said he had stuffs to do and will find time later in the afternoon to see the third party and apologize and issue a post dated check and avoid the police. This is a matter already at the Police Station.

He said he just got to know on Tuesday and I told him I didn't care and all I wanted was the car out ASAP. (All this while I was speaking calmly and he's the type that when he's speaking he wants you to take his opinion but when you speak he'll keep interrupting and press his opinion whenever there's a problem.)

He said I was blaming him and he got angry and told me if I don't want to "LISTEN" to him I should go and get the car out myself. I ended the call.

For a car that's been at the police station going to 4 days Kayode still has stuffs to do and my car was not important enough.

I called the driver and asked for the third party number. I called and he said we could meet at the station since he was close and that the police were even asking for the car owner to confirm insurance. I left my office immediately, went home to get all original papers and insurance certificate, I called the driver and asked him to join us so we resolved everything. I took an UBER and after 30mins on trip I called the driver only for him to tell me Kayode asked him not to come. I tried everything to explain to him the importance of him being there to witness any discussion but still he was adamant about coming.

Now my fire was burning very bad.


I got to the Lekki station where the car was and the police woman in charge told me the other guy had waited almost 2 hrs but left minutes before I arrived. The police further asked for the driver and I said he was on his way that we should start processing any thing.

She clearly refused and said all parties involved must be present to confirm who is who. So I was stuck. I tried to call the driver and after very many tries he didn't pick. The police also called and he didn't pick up. I called the third party and he said once the driver comes I should let him know and he'll return.

At this point I had to narrate this story to the police lady who asked for Kayode's number and called him. In my presence she asked kayode to come over so everything can be resolved amicably. Kayode bluntly refused and said whenever he has chance he'll come. According to the police lady she said Kayode was arrogant and rude and I noticed her say kayode should chill since she was the one calling with her own credit he had no right to shout at her or refuse her talking. Kayode kept saying if he's to come it'll be later in the evening that he was busy. The lady was shocked and said is he expecting the 2 car owners to wait all day till evening when he has chance.

She referred me to the case section and the DCO asked an officer to follow us to the Kayode's office there in Lekki. We got there in pretence as clients for the secretary and as expected Kayode wasn't there. I was told by the police to file a different case against him at the ilupeju station close to Kayode's usually location for defrauding. So I left.

On my way I called Mr Reliable Gazzuzz and narrated my situation he asked me to calm down and give him chance to speak to kayode.

Few minutes later Kayode called me and stupidly said the reason he asked the driver to wait was because driver didn't have transport fare and he was to send him money but was busy. That he'll send soon. I said no problem so I faced home. By the time I got home around 5pm the driver called and was apologizing that he didn't have cash and also went to the hospital for treatment and that's why he didn't pick. I said no problem, call the other party and schedule a meeting time and inform me so we all settle the matter.

Next day Thursday I called the driver and he said the other guy agreed to Friday.

Friday morning around 9am I called the driver and he said he was on his way to the station and the other guy said to meet by 11am. I quickly got dressed and called Kayode and he said the driver told him the night before and he'll be leaving home soon that he'll pick me up at my office so we can go together. I told him driver was on his way there so I'll wait. By 10:30, kayode said he's almost at my place. I called the driver and to my surprise he said Kayode asked him to wait at his ilupeju location so we could all go together.

11am I called Kayode and he said he's close. Called driver and he said no sign of kayode. I called the other guy and acted like I didn't know there was a fixed time. He said he was at the station and waiting for the driver who he agreed to meet. So to buy time I said I was coming and he should please wait.

11:30am no sign of kayode so I called an UBER and left. I called the driver and told him to inform kayode I will go ahead amd they should meet me there. Getting close to the station I called Kayode and he said he had to handle certain things but will be leaving soon. When I got to the station I met the Gentleman waiting in the heat. He obviously wasn't happy and asked for the driver. I said they were coming. After a few minutes I called Kayode and he said they were coming, further said he didn't want anything to do with police and I said not a problem. We can speak with the guy outside and the driver and I can go in resolve the issue and be gone. For him coming is just to assist the driver incase he needs to pay money to the police or make negotiations or stand as his guarantor.

After 1 hour no sign of kayode nor the driver and the other guy vexing and me consoling. Driver stopped picking his calls.

I decided to plead with the police and ask if anything else can be done, I wrote a statement and she sent to the DPO. The DPO gave the condition that I first fix the other guys car and mine remains till its done.

Till now, kayode hasn't called, driver hasn't called.

This is someone who claims to run a Fleet Management Company. No regard for Partner, No remorse whatsoever.

My car still seats at the Police Station pending the quote from the other guy who says his car was bought brand new and as it's still under warranty can't give it to any mechanic except the car manufacturer. Who he says will get repair quote out by Monday.

That's the current situation and he's here still advertising for more cars to collect and damage while ripping off partners and favoring drivers.

Note I have call records on the Wednesday and yesterday Friday between kayode and I. I have tried attaching but doesn't seem to load.

A Nigerian man with a big heart, Jude Idada (pictured below) has narrated his encounter with a Masters degree holder who works as a security guard in Ikeja area of Lagos. After paying for his transport fare and buying him food, the good Samaritan, Jude, also gave the man some money to take care of himself.

The interesting part is that the good Samaritan also told his wealthy friend about the man he met on the bus and how he is struggling to take care of his family with two jobs. His friend transferred N250,000 to the man after speaking with him on the phone.

Read what the good Samaritan Jude shared on Facebook;

These things you can't see just by looking at a person.

In the bus from Sabo, Yaba to Obalende, the man sitting by me kept handling his pockets for the extra money the conductor was requesting for.

He had thought it was 100 naira and was surprised it was 200 naira.

I told him not to bother and paid it.

He was efusive with thanks and no sooner called a woman who was standing by the road with a tray of bread and butter.

100 naira bread.

She asked if he wanted some butter.

He answered in the negative.

I looked at him.

He was staring at the woman with such concentration as she packed up the bread.

He noticed my gaze and turned to me.

There was an apologetic smile on his face.

"Sorry bros, but I never eat since morning."

It was 7.45 p.m.

Already dark.

I smiled, turned to the woman and asked her to butter up the bread.

I called out to another hawker who was passing with a pack of cold drinks.

I turned to him and asked what he wanted.

He was looking at me dumbstruck.

The conductor pounded on the roof of the bus. A signal to the driver that it was time to move.

The driver engaged the gear and was about to move, it was as though the slight jerk of the boss awakened the man.

He hollered.

"Duro!"

The driver stopped.

"Kilon shele?"

"Mo fe ra onje."

"Shey kia!"

He turned to me.

"Coke."

I bought two bottles of coke and paid for the bread.

The bus hurtled away towards Obalende.

And he told me a tale of woe.

Masters degree holder but working as a security guard in Ikeja.

Resuming today as a security guard in VI for the night shift.

2 jobs.

A wife and a kid.

I listened.

We got to Obalende.

Gave him some more money.

Stopped him from kneeling down in the bus park in gratitude.

Exchanged numbers and bade him farewell.

From there I headed to the Japanese restaurant Shiro in VI for dinner with my very wealthy friend.

And I told him of my decision to travel Lagos by bus for a week and more to meet the 'real' Lagosians.

He was intrigued.

Then I told him of the man I had just met on my way from Yaba.

And he was moved.

So moved that he had me call him and he spoke with him.

After which he collected his bank details and right in my presence, he transferred 250k to the man.

My eyes are misty.

In this city there are demons and there are angels.

I am happy that my friend proved to be the latter.

And a life was touched.

Lagos.

@pooozeee, let me analyse it in another way if it will further help you or anyone in case of future reoccurence.

The following map originated from your post I am quoting or replying to. I just have to zoom into the map area which is what matter most.
Now, I want you to first forget any grammar that preceeded the map so as to have an open mind.
For the next 10 seconds, please look at the first picture below and try to see if you could identify something that is wrong with it.

Ok. Now let us look at the second picture together.
You will notice 4 additions to the second picture. Namely, 1, 2, Irregular Red Circle and Green Circle respectively.
How did that got there
I added them
The number 1 is where you pick your rider ( i.e 96, Adeniran Ogunsanya St, Surulere.)
The Green Circle on the map confirms that your trip began at Adeniran Ogunsanya St, Surulere. That's cool right? YES!
Number 2 is where your rider drop off. (i.e Adekunle Kuye St., Animashahun, Surulere).
The Red Circle on the map shows that your trip did not end at point number 2, but ended at the beginning of Akerele Street, (beside Alhaji Masha/Adeniran Ogunsanya flyover bridge) as against Adekunle Kuye St, Animashahun.
Did you just ask, 'How is that suppose to be my concern?'

The Orange lines addition to the 3rd picture answer that question.
Can you see that perfect straight line from point 2 to point 3 on the map?
Can you please tell me if you really drive through on that straight line ?
Simply put, Their is no such way to drive through smoothly from point 2 to 3 in that area.

Finally, look at the 4th picture.
Compare the blue highlighted area with the orange highlighted area. What can you deduce?
For me, I can see that your GPS did a very good job from the green to the red points in the blue highlighted area but failed or malfunctioned in the orange shaded area. Gaskiya walahi.

Don't argue sir. Learn.
It's your phone GPS that's faulty.

Observe the trip details, you will notice abnormal linear motion.
That's what the Uber robots detects and flag the account.

Read the community guidelines again. Cheers.

Hello guys. My ratify has been calculating distance wrongly..

The first pic here wasn't up to 4km..from abulegba to within abulegba..

2nd scenario, shoprite Ikeja to oando after lekki elegushi side.. Christ embassy.. The original distance should be around 38km and my ratify app recorded 58km..

Although I use infinix note 2, it's already upgraded to the recommended Android 6 marshmallow..
.any explanations for this, and what's the way out.

chillex8:
That's your problem.
Change device.
Your GPS is faulty and will continue to record false movement.
Sometimes in your favor. Other times, in the riders favor.

Cool4face:
Bros, go and change ur phone, the problem is from ur GPS. I had the same experience last week, they chop more than 7k of my last week earning, I had to stop driving and off to their office. And what they told me was to change my phone which I did and this week is perfect Though, am still waiting for them to refund d shortfall, or I take legal action against them cos they ended up deducting their 25% even after I wasted my fuel for pickup & dropoff and paid me nothing.
