davodyguy: The bolded is the big problem in Nigeria and the world at large. It is not peculiar to any tribe or country. Let's pretend the last name was not intentionally left uncovered from the bank transaction. The picture did not show all the items in the receipts.. did all the individual items purchased add up to 1.3m or was it 1.5m? Your picture did not do justice to that. There have been incidents were people make those mistakes. There have also been incidents were apprentice do this sort of thing so there Oga will not find out or the seller provided multiple receipts from one bank transaction. Regardless, assuming this was a case of fraudulent activities even though we haven't heard from the other party, just believing what you said.. IT IS VERY WRONG TO LABEL A WHOLE TRIBE AS CRIMINALS.!! we have seen lots of individuals here giving out hints on their trade, I know money121 refused to do the same and was castigated but anyways, checkitout do post some write ups about his line of business like people beware kind of thing.. who are those selling granites in Ogun, Lagos, Oyo axis if I might ask ( the granite fraud is not only peculiar to these areas) ? If another tribe was building a house and retained the services of those dishonest granites dealer, would it be plausible for that individual to come online and say,( after learning the tricks of the trade and buyer beware from check it out) and say this tribe are all criminals Are we talking of electric cables , rebagging of cement? At the end of the day, people need to be careful both in Nigeria and outside of Nigeria. Outside of Nigeria, I always ask for a receipt even if I purchased a pack of gum. I even count my money after withdrawing from ATM ( I have caught them twice, whether the bank intended it work like that or not,, I do not know,, what I know is my money was not complete). There have been many instances where people did not give me my correct balance, deny having a conversation with me about something ( that's why I use email and what's app in most communications). It doesn't mean all white people are criminals. There are bad eggs in every race, tribe, nationality. I have paid money at a government agency before headed by someone not from my tribe, I paid 100 naira ( not the exact amount) and was given a receipt of 60 naira. I asked and was told, they don't write a receipt for the other 40 naira, I was furious but was told oga, better come and be going ooh , if our Oga hear about your ranting for the 40 naira, your file will not move. Your post should have been in the line of buyer beware, check your receipt after purchase and count the materials before leaving the shop kind of thing. You were very wrong to condemn a whole tribe because of your bad experience with a handful of individuals from that tribe. 12 Likes |

Nigeria is becoming tragic. A place where the Thief accuses the Victim of not taking proper care of his property, to justify his (thieve's) stealing it. If we cant tell ourselves the truth, then we are leaving it to outsiders to DEFINE us, as they see us. If you have a behaviour, do yourself a BIG FAVOR by Changing it, rather than trying to bully or intimidate others into accepting it or playing the victim anytime you are caught. Apologies should not be made out of fear or intimidation, it must be genuine and sincere. APOLOGISE if you are wrong but never negotiate from a position of weakness. Calling a Mad man, the Groom, does not make him a Groom, he still remains a Mad man and he better know it. After all the huff and puff, this thread will still be what it is about: BUILDING and DIY. PS: Everything l posted was in the 'singular tense', for those that dont know the difference. 9 Likes 1 Share |

I apologize to all Igbo's for the comments made concerning the transaction that went wrong. It may be surprising that the same trader that is called a 'thief' may be the same trader that some people are searching for the best sales and services. Several artisans have defrauded, cheated, plagiarized, threatened and insulted clients here on this thread, but no one has heard of their tribes. Some don't even post comments here again. We have an artisan here that sells granite that was once 'axed' by another artisan for a transaction that went wrong, to the extent that a thread was dedicated to him, yet nobody heard of his tribe, till date I haven't heard and I don't want to hear, that's not my interest. Just went through the last 4 pages of this thread and still can't translate it into a meaningful conversation. Please this is enough. Apologies have been tendered. I follow this thread to learn, not to read about tribe. Since on Saturday there are questions I want to ask about septic tank and block sizes, but I have been holding it because I am fully aware that in a sane community this sort of argument discourages intelligent minds!! Please let's embrace peace. when all this is cleared I will proceed. 7 Likes |

BankeSmalls: Hello madam, To be honest with you as well as everyone here, the comment the young man made was obviously wrong. But: He was 'cheated' and he reacted, but you can easily tell he 'over'-reacted, and may not mean to paint any tribe in a wrong image. I only wish he made the statement without any ethnicity attached. But let's just assume he said it because he was and may be still angry over the huge amount of money he lost through the transaction. The man is aggrieved and so are you. If that's the way he can express his grievances let him be. If you know what he did was wrong don't do the same because it makes you no different from him. Don't even coerce anyone to apologize, it devalues the meaning of apology. If he has decided not to apologize, that doesn't justify what he said was right. Please accept my apologies and let peace reign. 4 Likes |

davodyguy: Oh you could be even open to that but you let this issue span pages ?? You yourself could have stopped all this and made a comment to clarify your stance not necessarily an apology not that the later is out of order. See oo, joke apart, if anyone have lived through "labeling,' having a target on your back just because you are a "Nigerian " it doesn't matter if you are igbo or yoruba, just Nigerian. You will see that experience is not funny, very demoralizing or someone just label you something you are not just because you are black.. Have you been singled out at an airport before just because of your green passport? Even though you are law abiding citizen but was labeled as a bad guy just because of your nationality? Things like your original statement should not be tolerated. So are you insinuating every one of yoruba decent doing business in Lagos is a saint?? There are no scammer , fraudulent people of yoruba decent doing business, scamming people and engaging in fraud in Lagos? Please let's be guided when we make those silly tribal assumptions. 4 Likes |

Rexology: I know, I want peace to reign like the next guy but what is wrong is wrong... frankly I was disappointed by the davodguy guys approach to this but more disappointed in some other people's reaction.. some well known names in this thread.. I think they should have made a comment to pacify this. We've got to stand up for what's right whether it was for or against you. Here's why, you could be on the receiving end of that treatment. Speaking of being singled out at the airport, I was traveling once and the guy sitting beside me was a Nigerian as well, different tribe from me. He was on the position of this tribes are this and that.. guess what, landed to catch our connecting flight, guess who was sent it for a secondary search? Not me, the flight was canceled beuavse of weather and the airline was lodging folks in a hotel, guess who was placed in a nice hotel? Me , the airline refused to put him in a hotel because he had a Nigerian passport. It was just Iike all those folks over heard our conversation. 2 Likes |

BankeSmalls: If you like, you can beat an Apology out of him, that is not my own headache. You and your 'wailing-wailers' have made more tribal insults at other tribes here, that you have lost all moral right to ask anyone to apologise to you When the Poster said ALL TRIBES have Criminals among them (which is a fact), l did not hear the Hausas come here to shout, l did not hear the Yorubas carry Cutlass, l did not hear people of Edo accuse him of tribalism, l did not hear Fulani man say he insulted all of them, l did not hear Idoma people say he must prostrate or they would burn the Lokoja bridge, the only people asking for apology and INSULTING other tribes here, are Igbos like you.[/b] This is not a generalisation on all Igbos but a statement of fact that can be verified in the last few pages. No Yoruba or Hausa or Edo or Ijaw or Igala or Ibibio has insulted any Igbo person, despite all the insults you have thrown at other tribes. Just because the name of THIS particular Fraudster is Ezenwa, does not mean we would shy away from calling him Ezenwa and rather call him Eniola or Eghosa or Mahmoud. or Aniete. Who then owes Who, an Apology? #Plenti-Plenti-Nonsense 8 Likes |

Daboomb: And he had to call the full name of the man online? Like I told you before, I understand that you want to prolong this matter as you are here still justifying tribalism. There was no need for any other tribe to respond to him because it was only Patrick Ebere he mentioned on the post. It's because of people like you Nigeria got to this position, it's also because of comments like this that evil will continue, if good people keep quiet. 1 Like |
