"He paid for two months and stopped. He said he doesn't know what I'm talking about. That I bought the machine N80,000. Why am I adding N100,000 to it?
"He paid me only N80,000. It is remaining N100,000. He has refused to pay. He is still using the okada. He said he cannot pay, that he doesn't understand what I am saying."
