The main goal of the paper is to provide a quantitative lower bound greater than $1$ for the relative projection constant $\lambda(Y, X)$, where $X$ is a subspace of $\ell_{ 2p}^m$ space and $Y \subset X$ is an arbitrary hyperplane. As a consequence, we establish that for every integer $n \geq 4$ there exists an $n$-dimensional normed space $X$ such that for an every hyperplane $Y$ and every projection $P:X \to Y$ the inequality $||P|| > 1 + \left (8 \left ( n + 3 \right )^{ 5} \right )^{ -30(n+3)^2}$ holds. This gives a non-trivial lower bound in a variation of problem proposed by Bosznay and Garay in $1986$.
