Man thanks Commission for recovering his N5m from estate developer

According to him, the delays in processing the loan prompted the company to write him informing him that he will have to forfeit the house because of his inability to pay up before the stipulated time.

Dr. Mansur then wrote the company demanding for the refund of his money as was promised him in the Terms and Condition but his request was met with excuses. It was at that point that a frustrated Dr. Mansur sought the help of the Commission to assist him recover his money from the Company.

The Commission swung into action and it culminated in their inviting Netconstruct Nigeria Limited to a case conference where they agreed to balance Dr. Mansur's his N5m before 14^th February and even buttressed that point with a letter of undertaking.
