This tenant has crazy nerves. He’s still went ahead to appeal the judgment. Good grief! Over someone’s property? If the house was sold out, am sure there many others out there that he could buy, but seems he’s a troublemaker.

No its his right. Na because Nigeria has no regards to the law that's why you typed this.
If they have entered a contract or he have any evidence he should have easily won this despite it being the woman property.

I'm suspecting ego palava. The tenant and the buyer are both retired officers, the tenant is having a superior rank to the buyer, so likely to be a case of; this small boy to me

Close your mouth. She made him sell his family property how?

Instead of him to use that money to go look for other property buy or sell more family property to add up and buy the property he decided to use the money go do case for court. Rubbish

Ok Mr high mindset.
You Sha wan talk ... And you don talk ...so....?

And yes she made him do it even if he admitted she didn't tell him to sell ... But if you can make some use of your high mindset, you wouldn't need me to clarify on what I meant.

Ok now go and use it ... It's not rocket science!

Continue in your ignorance. I guess you read where it stated the case was thrown out . It means its a useless case like your mind also .

This scenario is called Gazumping and is technically not possible in the US because of the technicalities of house buying so it is not even likely to get to court because it would not have happened in the first place.

In the UK gazumping is totally legal

This kind of case should not even also be legal in Nigeria because personally I see no reason for sueing.

I understand ... But you know he sold the property for the porpose of meeting up with the woman's demand

Nobody sent him to do that. It was his choice.

When he was asked for evidence that he sold two houses, he said that he did not have any. Clearly it meant that the man did not sell any house. He was being sentimental.

As a lawyer, he was asked "show us the account wey you keep the N135m". The man say e no get am. So it was an imaginary N135m or as they say fake N135m.

Abeg Bros, why should I be breaking it down for you like this free of charge?

The woman gave him all the time.

He had the first refusal, but failed.

He could not meet the asking price of N170m. At N135m, he still did not have the money. He had only N90m and would have pushed to lock it in and more time to source the balance

He used military mentality, but it failed.

It's not that easy finding suitable buyers in the property market. The woman took her opportunity.

If he had a signed document with the woman with respect to more time, purchase and sales, the woman would have honored it by the terms of the agreement.

They never had issues as landlady-tenant.
The man felt the pain because he was emotionally attached to the house

He can save the money, if he actually sold two houses, to purchase another property in Dolphin estate.

He was given the option of right to purchase. While he was running around and selling his properties to match the asking price, the landlady pulled the rug under his feet.
Everyone is saying it is her property but forgot how it all started and what went down to this point. The landlady could have been more humane than this. I can't do such things, never!

Wrong. There is no contract here. He didn't accept the offer made by the landlady and she didn't accept his counter offer.

He just wants to be petty and frustrate the new owner that's y he is still there suing. And has even appealed the judgement.

Lawyers can advise if landlady can start eviction proceedings even as his appeal is ongoing

Is it by force? The audacity and boldness was just too much. For me the the tent should be thrown out of the property with immediate alacrity and made to sign undertaking should any happen to the landlady because the said man is so desperate and is capable of killing the landlady

He has appealed.

Now that is his objective. To frustrate them and make them spend money.Meanwhile the new owner cannot take possession.

He will go all the way to Supreme Court..

The man na fraud, he could not even shoe proof if the money he said he sold 2 properties for.

Onitiju admitted that the defendants did not ask him to sell the two family properties, “but they did by conduct when they insisted on the N135 million purchase price”. He also told the court that he does not have evidence of where the N135 million was lodged.

He himself admitted before the court that she did not ask him to sell any of his family property.

A price of 170m which was later reduced to 135m was set for the property. He offered 90m and 100m which is still way below the set price, so she should still go ahead to sell to him and loose 35m in the process?...it's not like there was an agreement for her to wait for him to look for money.

That's the key ... There was no contract whatsoever... The lady did not even collect any part payment from him.. so there's no way the law will be on his side wherever he takes this case to around the world

Well he has no backed evidence. They might be agreements on words, well the case is against the man as he has no evidence. But despite this its still his right to sue her to court if he feels a agriefed. Imagine every Nigerian has this mentality with right court judgment! This country would have been better

How do you substantiate the right to purchase without backing it up with purchasing power?..

The landlady has given him the asking price...How he gets the money to pay, should not be the landlady's problem?...What he should have asked from the landlady was time... Example from Feb 10,- June 10, I will pay in full...(oral contract)
Assuming the landlady agreed on a part payment, And he deposited some money because of the property, Then he would have had a case...

Without being sentimental, he has no case... He can take it anywhere around the world... it will be strike out because there's no reasonable grounds to bring the claim to court..
