However, the carpenter did neither. In her words:
"This guy has been holding my money for over three months now no refund, no job, nothing. His landlord begged, the person that referred me begged and got tired, his own mother begged and promised me he would pay.
"Even his neighbor begged and assured me he would sort it out. Still, up till today, nothing. This is someone that will confidently tell you, “I’ll pay before 12 noon.” Once 12 reach, he’s suddenly sick. Then we’ll start going back and forth again. Another person will beg on his behalf, promise me again… and on the day of payment, he’ll still disappoint..."
"Honestly, I’ve tried. I’ve been more than patient After I took the furniture guy's machine, they pleaded on his behalf, so l returned it yet he still didn't refund or completed the job."
In the comment section, she disclosed that she later returned to seize his generator because he didn't keep to their agreement.
She wrote on TikTok:
"Him never pay oh! Dem beg for am, I return the machine. On the day him suppose pay again after the 100th time of many promises, cos him believe say I go dey house dey wait for the money, then him go fail as usual, omo I find am go that day.

Lady gives update on incident
Legit.ng reached out to the lady to get an update on the incident, and she narrated:
"About that job, I had to bring out more money and give it to another furniture guy because my client couldn’t wait any longer.
"For the machine, some people, including his landlord begged on his behalf, so I returned it after we agreed on a new payment date.
"On that day, I went there again, even though his usual trick is to give a time and then not pay. His shop is about 45 minutes from mine, and I’ve gone there 5 times already, spending almost ₦30k on fuel each trip.
"That day, some of the people who begged for him were around and saw everything. They were disappointed too. We agreed he should give me something as collateral, so he gave me his generator and promised to pay the next day. It’s been three weeks now, no call, no text, no payment."
