Good morning,

Please I need your assistance on how to go about this, please it's a long read, but I will try to summarise.

I purchased a car from overseas for a certain NA personnel. I gave him a time frame of arrival and also gave him tracking details, so he can as well know the movement of the vessel bearing his car.

The vessel delayed at the sea, they kept re-routing making the ETA to be extended. This was a situation beyond my control. I kept in touch with my contact who bought and shipped about the delays, he said he kept in touch with the shipping company and they apologised and said it's congestion they're experiencing. I as well contacted the shipping company by email and the told me same thing.

Thankfully after the delays, the container arrived mid April and I told the NA personnel that it will usually take a week to 2 weeks to conclude the clearing process, because of how the system is. But he won't have any of it. He said he wants his car out in maximum of 3days that he's sending someone to come pick it up. I told him it's not my power for the car to be cleared in that space of time and that before it's out i will give him a day or two's notice so the person can come.

My brothers and sisters since that day my life has been constantly threatened by men of the Nigerian Army. I had to go to the port last week Friday as they demanded for their car to come out that day. I showed up at least let them see where the clearing process has reached. The soldier sent down was to molest me coz he didn't want stories and just wanted the car, a certain man who is a supervisor at the longroom intervened and told the soldier that clearing process isn't straightforward and as fast as they are making it seem, that it takes a little time, that it's really not my fault that it's the system of which I've explained this to the buyer who doesn't want to listen.

The supervisor helped in printing out the documents through the information I gave him about the container bearing the car and we saw howfar the clearing process has gone and not that any delay game was been played.

Upon taking a closer look on the custom papers that have been printed out, i realized the NA personnel's car chassis number and year was different from the original year and chassis number of the car. So I called the attention of the agent who is clearing and my contact who shipped the car.

They looked at the bill of laden sent and saw that the error came from the shipping company.
My contact who shipped has contacted the shipping company and the correction is been worked on. But he was advised to let the container come out so it doesn't stay more days at the port as the clearing process has almost been completed. The duty has been paid and only to exit and release was left at that time. It took some more days for the truck to pick it up from the port to be offloaded at a designated location, because of the new call-up number that was introduced by NPA.

The truck was to offload yesterday, but encountered a problem and couldn't get to the location of offload. Infact because I was sure it will be offloaded yesterday I went there with my heavily pregnant wife and baby, with the intention of taking her to the hospital for antenatal since the container was scheduled to be offloaded in the morning.

While we were waiting, the agent told us the truck broke down. The soldier men came around yesterday and picked my family and I to the barracks, that I was a fraudster, no car and all sorts.

Now, the man we met at the port who came to my rescue when I was been molested said he can work on the correction of the custom papers with the sum of 400k Naira and the correction will be out in few hours. But I told him I don't have that kind of money and that he should please hold on as my contact has already start to work on it...

I'll have to stop here to say the reason I need assistance, now it seems the NA personnel has gone beyond my back to pay the 400k to this man and now wants me to pay him back when I've assured him that we've commenced the process. The coerced me to write an undertaking of paying of 100k for their running cost, 400k if my correction isn't genuine and ceased my car.

I wrote that I would only make payment of 400k if the correction I made isn't genuine.
And I also wrote on the undertaking that I will retrieve my car when I give them the car and the corrected custom paper bearing the correct car information.

I'm to pick the car today, but I have a very strong feeling they will come around to pick up the car and intimidate me to pay the 400k before they release my car.

Please what can I do? That wasn't I signed in the undertaking. They may want to intimidate me to pay up the money same way I was coerced to leave my car and sign the undertaking at their office yesterday.

Please lalastica please move this to the front page, for much input. Thanks.

This is the definition of “wahala be like bicycle.”

From one thing to the other. If I were you, I would pray hard and also fast because some things require more than prayer. Silver and gold, I have none but I will say a prayer for you.
