n3xt: What is the date on the contract? when was the first payment released to you? You actually believe you are playing games here because its not your sweat involved since you don't have a brand name to protect? And if there was any delay according to you, it was worth stalling for 4 months? 1 Like

Please find attached screenshots of the final valuation containing the details of the refund. This is the main summary of the document. I'll add the breakdown of the items in the valuation in a subsequent post. I want to reattach the documents because I want to blur out the name for security and privacy reasons. The total amount due for refund in this document is 2.45m. Please find attached the valuation for your perusal. 2 Likes

somehow: Can we deal with specifics here sir? What exactly was stalled? >> Is it the raft that was done by May 16th? >> Is it the block walls that we’ve raised 50% as at the 18th of May? I’m sure you remember the reason we couldn’t raise the other side of the wall was because we wanted trucks delivering filling sand to access the site through that part since we’ve blocked the access point to the site. I’m also sure you didn’t forget that all the materials for the raft foundation has been prepared as at May 2021 and we were busy waiting for one thing or the other to happen for us to raise the security house. This includes but not limited to approved design from you because there was no agreed design. I’m sure you are aware that the trucks couldn’t gain access into the site anymore when we wanted to sandfill the frontal part of the land because the estate has commenced digging of drainages and this delayed the construction of the front wall. Then there was omo-onile and suppliers issue that took us off for additional few days. Then logistics issues from the supplier of Sandfilling and the plumbers delay. I must not forget the Lagos State Building Control delay as well. Just in case you forgot. That’s why they marked the kitchen entrance side. 2 Likes 1 Share |

n3xt: Quit beating about the bush. The QS posted the status of the uncompleted SH as at 28th Sept earlier on. Lasbca delayed for how many hours? Omo nile delayed up to 24 hours? I have done all these before, not worth the back and forth. 8 Likes |

For the records, the process of refund started long before the termination of the contract. I already made a refund of N50,000 transferred to me by my client as a support for the broken atrium glass back to the client when issues started manifesting. Till moment, my fund for a replacement glass (paid in August) is still with the glass supplier in Ajah around GTBank Addo road. I can always pick up anytime I have something around the place or give them to friends/colleagues/family who need it. To avoid stories, I offered to make a complete refund for the glass in my submission despite the fact that the cause of the damage wasn’t my fault. I’ve also talked to my client about we resolving major issues first and find a common ground on irreconcilable differences but it seems I’m not doing well enough. Some weeks back I sent a payment for a missing borehole pump to my client to order a new replacement borehole pump because the one we got for the project was missing and we didn’t use it during the project lifetime. We use NextHome water pumps during construction. I didn’t deliberately stall anything. I’m not just ready to pay for what I don’t owe. 2 Likes 1 Share |

QSFemi: Everyone can see what the QSfemi valuated and what N3xt is offering to pay as what he owes. I have receipts of the amount paid to the roofer for both the main building and the security house, the atrium roof cover installer, the casting of most part of the fins and slab, the repairs of the roof trusses that was badly installed, the block work for the security house and other repairs done. These receipts are known to the QS, even down to when they were negotiated. All the above were undone by N3xt, yet he's offering 1.072m that didn't even complete the roofing alone. I want the fair minded people to go through both valuations. God willing, I should resume the finishing stages 1st week of January and I want my refund before then. (And its very obvious 1.072m) wouldn't have done what was left undone. 1 Like |

n3xt: What should I expect to read from you before? Do you even understand what being fair mean when you can be comfortable stalling a project for months with ready-made excuses for everything?. Everyone can see what has been posted and are in a better position to state what is fair. I need my refund by 1st week of January and willing to take 2m from the 2.45m valued. 2 Likes |

somehow: Nothing was ever left undone. The project was still ongoing when you decided to terminate the contract and I’ve never asked you for additional sum on any of the items that we’ve agreed on. So I don’t want you to assume my position. I already made contact with a well known roofer here several months (July 2021) before the termination. He has sent in his installer for measurement ( I paid for his logistics), submitted his quote and was waiting for the date we are going to do the installation. He didn’t bill me up to N1m neither did he change his price months after. 2 Likes 1 Share

At last we have a figured amount to this contractual argument.. The client "Somehow" requesting 2 Million Naira refund... The Contractor "N3xt" willing to refund 1Million 70k Naira... QS Femi... Your job left is to be more specific on the job description and amount the contractor didn't agree to... so he can be compelled to pay or not base on the evidences of picture or video... This case is simple... 2 Likes |

Truth is constant. The truth you said in the morning will be the same thing you’ll hear in the evening. I’ve only submitted one figure but I’ve received 5 different conflicting figures from my client. It tells a lot. It’ll be interesting to share some of these concocted figures. __________ I was once told the valuation of the security house was 43% of the 1,400,000 paid and when asked to explain how these figures were arrived at, I heard stories. 3 Likes 1 Share

Why am I still seeing the cost of woodwork in the valuation? I once again demand an open explanation. Assuming woodwork will be included, “Would anyone have paid a carpenter N150k just to nail N120k noggin woods?” It arexse going to install wood on steel trusses? This is just of the too many errors. 2 Likes 1 Share

As if that wasn’t enough, why are you still pushing the responsibility of fixing the steel trusses on me when you know fully well that it was handled by a subcontractor and we offered to fix it at no cost to you under supervision of whoever is making claims that things weren’t done right. 2 Likes 1 Share

When claims are to be made by my client, the current cost of materials and how inflation has killed almost everything matters.... But when it’s time to value what was done and what was on site, the market price doesn’t count. 2 Likes 1 Share

Philosophies aside, it is very uncommon in today's youth to be accredited for being a marathon runner. For there is no prize for starting small to make it big one day, but only to start big to be the biggest in no time smiley Sadly, we fail to realize, "Its not how good you are, its how good you want to be". The word "potential" is more common in people than the word "succesful" and one doesn't have to dig too deep to figure why? what happen to you is what we see in most of our Nigerian youth today, you collected those money from your client known fully well that its not enough, but you collected it anyway because u have your immediate needs that need to be attended to. with your MONEY MONGER mind set that you can always run back to him and get more as usual. No doubt I was one of your fans and die hard follower I even subscribes to you on facebook. thinking you are real and good biz Minded person. OBVIOUSLY YOU ARE NOT" ruining back to this page now and giving low down on how u run your business do u know good but arm. I pray that your client have it somewhere with in him to forgive you all u put him trough. @Anouhah/Brabus client, You did good brother ! @Spider, pls stay away from those nonsense that came out of your mouth that prices change and all blablab-la! it doesn't sound good coming from you! @AMLONE, You always point blank. you good as always. @PHEEMY, Honestly i don't know what to say , lol (Modify) (Quote) (Report) 1 Share (Un-Share) ABOVE WAS MY SUBMISSION 10 YEARS AGO TODAY about same guy Bosun..

If somehow is the same as the person on this Nland scammers ‘ list with former moniker freshcvvs, then IMO, there’s really nothing more to discuss. There is more than one reference on this site of conduct that is unbecoming. I’m about people that work for their money. If somehow is a scammer, then he deserves what he got.
