BrabusNG:
It’s 48 hours since allegation was raised against Brabus and the simple request made was that the complainant should tell us how it happened.

I purposely asked so that I can know how to respond to the allegation.

Here’s my account (I do not have all the detailed information on the transaction here but I’ll give a brief account)

- Truly we were engaged to construct a fence in Ibeju Lekki area of Lagos state.

- We moved to site immediately we were mobilized.

- On getting to the site, I realized the land has not been cleared and I requested that it should be cleared so that we can know exactly the area we are working.

- The client engaged people to do that and we commence the fence work.

- We started with the right side (when facing land). However on getting midway, we found another old fence which shows someone has done something around that area before a very long time ago. This created a very useless piece of land in between the land we are working on and the old fence found in the bush.

- When we got to the back, we found another fence.

- I informed the client and we continued our job. We proceed to the frontal part of the land.

- As we were about getting to the point we were shown the land ended, some land urchins (omo onile) came to the site and stopped the work.

- I informed the client and he told me one person will come.

- We will get back to site, the dreary guys will accost us in the bush and send us away again and again.

- This continued for a very long time.

- Accessibility was a major issue on the site as we can’t get heavy truck to get to the main site, so we drop granite some distance away from the site.

- For every time we were stopped and left the site, we will notice our materials has been stolen before we got back to site.

- I used NextHome Dump Truck for the delivery of sand which was gotten at Okun, Ibeju Lekki Lagos. I had to park down the truck for weeks awaiting a permanent resolve.

- Whenever we get to site, a faction will tell us the land is here. Another will come and tell us something different. So completing the last side became almost an impossible mission.

- At a point we started digging a place and they told us the land was beyond the line.

- Sigh!!!

- Eventually we did the blinding and raising of 3rd side and the issue wasn’t resolved. The land wasn’t fully cleared. So we left.

- Months after I got a call from someone on behalf of the client and guess what it was DSS inviting me for fraud.

- I went there and they said the client said I collected his money and didn’t do his work. I smiled.

- My client can use DSS against me but can’t provide ordinary vigilante or police to protect us when we were being disturbed in the thick forest. What an irony!
Well, we are first Nigerian before we travel go obodo oyibo land.

- That I got a contract to construct a fence, does it automatically invested power of attorney in me to act anyhow on the land?

- My question has always been “What should I have done?”

- To continue working on the land when I’m not the land owner, not the surveyor, nor member of the omo onile family?

- To stage a serious fight against the omo oniles because I want to impress my client? If I die, I’d be given a state burial abi?

- To park my granite, sand and other materials in my bag and take them to safety until all issues are resolved?

- When the client asked for refund, I asked myself. Am I supposed to tell the granite supplier that “Sorry o! we didn’t use all the granite because omo onile stopped us so the client need a refund?”

- For anyone who’s familiar with Ibeju Lekki land urchin, you’ll know how dreary they are.


Let me stop here. Let’s hear from the other side.


Can I ask my Oga if all these claims are lies?


______

While we were on this project, my client made a double payment of over a million naira to my account and I called his attention to it and transferred the money back to him.

Part 2: Communication Palava

A lot of people in diaspora do one funny thing I’d like to share. They’d use a line no one can reach them on to call their contractors/family members/friends etc so anytime there’s something urgent and important you have to wait for their call.

It’s the most useless thing I’ve ever seen. Please don’t work with people you don’t trust. Work with your family members or trusted allies and make communication as easy as possible.

Life is not difficult if we chose to live simple.

Isn’t it shocking that I just got to know the userid my client after almost 5 years? In fact, the userid just followed me 2 days ago and we were working together on multi-million naira project.


More updates on this in Part 2.


_______

Part 3 - Photobomb

When you not party to the land transaction in the first place, Its best to have a clear understanding with the client, any omo onile or family matters shall be attended to by him.

Hello, please show more pictures of that skirting board you have there. I like it more than using tiles for skirting. It seems using skirting boards is more expensive than tiles but it brings out finer details and more beautiful than using tiles.

Almost all builds in Nigeria uses same floor tiles for their skirting. I like the white board skirting thing more than tiles.

Here a picture of the installed skirting.

Good day gurus. I have the attached plan for building and have received the quotation below from the brick layer.

NEW QUOTATION

* MATERIALS
1. 3000 BLOCK@200 each _ #600,000

2. 2 double tipper of sharp sand @40,000 - #80,000

3. 1 double tipper of soft sand@32,000 - #32,000

4. 15 tons of granite@80,000 - #80,000

5. 80 bags of cement@2,550 each - #204,000

6. Tank - #45,000

7. Plank - #15,000

8. Water - #30,000

9. Transport - #7,000

TOTAL MATERIALS - #1,093,000

* WORKMANSHIP

1. Digging of foundation - #60,000

2. Casting of foundation - #65,000

3. Settings of blocks - #300,000

4. Casting of lintel - #100,000

TOTAL WORKMANSHIP - #525,000


TOTAL MATERIALS + TOTAL WORKMANSHIP - #1,618,000

Kindly help me scrutinize the area of the workmanship to know if it is reasonable enough and if some of the other items asides cement and block can be gotten cheaper.

Land location is behind Obasanjo farm in Ota ogun state.

First, the workmanship gives awhole lot of over-quoting concerns.

Cost of setting 3000 blocks is #150,000
Foundation excavation is reasonable at #35,000
Lintels, all the lintels on this plan is less than 2 cum of concrete.

I advise you seek the services of a QS or a CM at least, it's going to cost you professional fees but it's going save construction cost amongst other benefits

raymondFirstborn:


You should tell that to young graduates not a professional like me with wealth of experience.
You need to understand the difference between technologist and scientist first, before jumping to conclusion.
As an HND holder, I am a technologist and my job is strictly "hands on" application (applied science) .
All those Chinese (expatriates) you see constructing Nigeria's bridges and roads are technologist with the same diplomas you look down on.

with that same diploma , I would be starting my MS in Construction management next year in UNILAG.

He hasn't undermined the so claimed wealth of experience.
Take take time to read and understand, he has only made comment on your use of word "degree".

Laspotech dont award degree.

cheras:
