A few days ago, Revolution Plus landed in a serious scandal following some accusations by aggrieved customers of the company.
The main accusation against the company is on the delayed allocation of landed properties to customers despite the fact that money has fully been paid to purchase the landed properties by the customers.
The said customers decided to use the face of their popular celebrity ambassadors, Odunlade Adekola and Toyin Toyin Abraham in the call out.
According to a post by Instagram blogger, Gistlover, some customers claimed to have paid three years ago, and yet they have not been allocated their properties.
In the post, it was also revealed that the company keeps luring innocent customers to pay for properties in order to pay ambassadors of the company.
It was also mentioned that the company no longer has properties to allocate.
“ They no longer have any property to allocate to subscribers, but they kept on collecting money from unsuspected buyers and keep posting them on allocation. Said and aggravated customer”.
However, some customers reportedly approached the company for a refund but they were denied by one Tolulope Onalaja, wife of the GMD who instead of calming them down but started insulting them and calling their hard-earned money a peanut. Also claiming that nobody can get a refund except they are willing to forfeit 40% of what they paid to the company.
Though, in a statement on its Instagram page on Wednesday, the company dismissed the allegations, adding that the firm “was built on integrity and trust.”
The company also claimed to be reviewing the complaints from its customers.
It assured that all its customers would be attended to in due course, adding that allocations are usually done in batches.
The owner of the company, Mr. Bamidele Onalaja, and his arrogant wife have been accused of threatening and calling customers names after they enquire to know when their land can be allocated after the breach of contract.
Meanwhile, in a government aiming at eradicating corruption in a nation, this is indeed a big fraud that urgently seeks the attention of the government and The Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
In a more serious administration, it’s believed that Revolution Plus Property Company is a registered company that has a license to operate, the Nigerian government is expected to have waded into this case of fraud by firstly ceasing the license of operation of the company pending to the time that EFCC will kick off and complete its investigation.
This is because, the complaints are poor Nigerians who couldn’t afford to buy properties in Lagos State at once but decided to join Revolution Plus where installment payment is allowed, three years after payment, the said company is yet to allocate the land to its customers.
Without ceasing the license, the real estate company will still be operating and other innocent Nigerians will become victims again.
As a trustworthy company with integrity, you are expected to have gotten your land ready before rolling out adverts for patronage, the idea of allocations are usually done in batches is obviously not a welcome idea for a company built on integrity as Revolution Plus claimed to be.
The EFCC should live up to its responsibility by investigating and making sure that justice is served for all the people involved to show examples for others who are in similar trade.
