Just a bit. I buy 10k fuel and make 30k somedays. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I make 26k. At times on Thursday too. Mondays, Friday's and Saturdays are higher. Remove 10k fuel and 20% commission, then U know how much left.

I'm sorry to ask....cos this isn't the solution/answer to your question, but it will lead to my advice for you! How will you be driving a car till the engine knocked? You don't check oil or what? Do you just wake up in the morning, start car and move?

I didn’t get any sign whatsoever infact the car was moving well till I got to oworo and the car movement began moving sluggishly… before I knew it I heard grounding sounds… d culprit was oil pump not flowing the oil at regular places so one of the metal had grinded… my car was always in top shape and I don’t joke with my maintenance

My own confusion is why will I allow my owner-partner to buy engine for me since the car is on HP and I've been using it for 3 years?
My partner's own is to be receiving his remittance, not to take care of the car for me nahhh.
My own thought sha.

1. The day you signed HP, the car and its problem becomes your property. Your first mistake was to allow the owner buy a new engine.

2. Although you're at fault here but I will advice you look for money like 250 to 450k, go to the police and give them 50k to invite your partner, not for threat or arrest but on the ground of resolution that you should pay the 200 to 400k now and spread the rest on your HP.

3. If luck shines on you, keep your mouth shut on damages and fix things yourself now that you understand whom you're dealing with.

Best of luck!

It won't work if you don't have something to appease the owner. The police will tell you the same thing I'm telling you now.

If it's oil pump, you should have noticed the sign on your dashboard.

It will be blinking oil check and you should have parked the car immediately.


How much was your balance remaining before this sad event happened?

God will see you through this, God will touch your partner's heart where he'd listen and hand over the car back to you.


Your efforts and time will not go in vein, have faith and everything will turn out well for you.


My advice, try meet people close to him to talk to him, let them beg him that you will pay the money he spent on the engine by adding it to your balance...

Sorry for this situation.
3.2m; At 30k weekly u ought to have completed payment of that car by now even if u didn't make any down payment. Still having 800k to balance shows u had alot of defaults.
Not having money to fix your car or to add to what partner has to the extent that partner will come and carry it from your mechanic and buy engine in the car is not good at all.
It shows unseriousness on your part. He is kind to ask you to bring the money he has used to buy the engine, some other partners will activate the default clause in your agreement and the rest is history.
The mistake u made was allow him take possession of the car and he repaired it without an agreement with u.
Milk has been spilled now, my guess is he knows u can't raise that money and u will forfeit the car. But if he really wants you to handle the car again and complete your payment he will come to a compromise, but u must show serious commitment. You have to gather minimum half of that money and give to him and propose a concrete repayment plan of the balance to run side by side with your 30k weekly payments.
I personally will not accept adding the 800k for engine to the 800k left thereby prolonging the payment period without interest or benefit to me.
Come up with a 40/50k weekly payment In addition to the part lump sum for the engine to offset all debts. If he doesn't accept then involve other people,(family friends, church/mosque) and lastly the police because he is being unreasonable. Afteral, u didn't ask him to fix the car for u. But my guess is u didn't make any concrete move before he collected the car and u have defaulted already. So now it's by begging and not by force. Police case should be the last resort. Cos ones u involve Police there is forever bad blood between u both and u don't even know if the matter will sumasault on your head, don't forget u are in Nigeria where Judges and Police work for the highest bidder.

Sir, if this is really true then u haven't been fair by your judgement of ehailing.

You work approx 8hrs and make profit of roughly 15k after fuel and Commission.
Let's not forget you drive a Toyota Camry Muscle with 2.4litre engine, but even at that u make a handsome figure daily with what I call soft work.

I wouldn't say he is unserious tho as I don't know the kind of responsibilities he has on his shoulder but the part he said he has been driving the car for 2years and a month, I really don't know how he hasn't completed the payment yet, normally, paying 30k weekly will only take him roughly 107 weeks to complete the 3.2m, and 107 weeks is approximately 2years and 3weeks so I really don't understand how he still have 800k left to balance...



@Djkayzee231 have you been defaulting in the agreement?
