Dave Okorodion, a Lagos-based phone vendor, has refunded N500,000 to Damilola, a Lagos resident who paid him N1.4 million in March for an iPhone 14 Pro Max.

This development occurred only hours after FIJ reported that Okorodion had refused to refund Damilola’s money or provide the iPhone 14 Pro Max she had paid for.

When FIJ contacted Okorodion on Tuesday, he stated that he had been trying to refund the remaining balance and assured that it would be paid in full by the end of the week.

Damilola, expressing her gratitude for FIJ’s intervention, informed FIJ on Wednesday that she was thankful and mentioned that Okorodion had promised to settle the remaining balance two weeks prior.

On September 25, FIJ reported that Damilola had contacted Okorodion in March to purchase an iPhone 14 Pro Max with 256GB of storage for a friend. She paid the N1.4 million price in two tranches without negotiation.

“I couldn’t send the full amount at once, so I transferred the payment to two instalments on the same day. He confirmed receiving the first payment before I sent the second. However, after that, he became unreachable,” Damilola told FIJ.

She added that despite making the full payment, she neither received the phone nor a refund until FIJ intervened.

Your people are doing great work. Keep keeping it up. But we will need your help in lugbe airport road Abuja. The Abuja electricity distribution company is making life unbearable for the residents there. A person staying in a room always pays between 8,000 to 11,000 naira par month, while others , because you know them, some people in 22 rooms apartment are paying 2500 naira par monthly . You people can help us to look into it. And some other even pay because they are informants to the agency.

Thank God you were able to find the vendor despite he blocked his customer after receiving the 1.4m. that is so bad of him, to have behaved in such a dubious manner.
Thanking you for resolving this issues and bringing smile back to the lady’s life, please continue the good work.
