Isaac Eniola Okikioluwa, the owner of Isaac Bolt Engine Technology, has delivered four 250-watt solar panels, a 220 amp-hour (AH) battery, and a power engine to Olabode Oludare, an Oyo-based business analyst.
Speaking to FIJ, Oludare confirmed that Okikioluwa fulfilled the delivery on Thursday, following months of back-and-forth between them after paying N752,000 to him on May 29.
FIJ reported on July 31 how Okikioluwa received N752,000 from Oludare but failed to deliver the solar generator as promised.
“I have collected the generator now. Thank you so much for all your help,” Oludare told FIJ.

However, Oludare pointed out discrepancies between what he ordered and what was delivered. He had initially requested breakers, thunder arrestor gadgets, and panel racks among other accessories.
“What we agreed on included: a 4000-watt engine, two 200AH batteries, four 350-watt solar panels, 14 yards of 6mm cables, breakers, thunder arrestor gadgets, panel racks and clips,” he said.

Okikioluwa explained that the reduced engine, panel capacity, and battery were due to inflation.
“He blamed the reduction on the rise in prices. I accepted the loss to settle the matter,” Oludare added.
When FIJ spoke to Okikioluwa on Monday, he explained that delays were due to the complexity of the job and issues with receiving substandard materials from suppliers.
“I couldn’t deliver immediately because it was a complex job. I also had trouble with suppliers sending me inferior materials,” Okikioluwa told FIJ.
He added that he had to put in a lot of effort to avoid further testing Oludare’s prolonged patience.
