Court Orders Tenant To Pay N900,000 Rent Arrears by omobarBlog(m): 3:56pm On Oct 18, 2016
A Wuse Zone 2 Chief Magistrates’ Court, Abuja, on Tuesday ordered one Baba Garba to pay N900,000 rent arrears to Larix Properties Limited.

The Senior Magistrate, Teribo Jim, gave the order after listening to the submissions of Hadiza Zarma, counsel to Larix Properties.

Zarma had told the court that since the beginning of the tenancy year of May, 2014 till date, the defendant had not been paid his annual rent of N450, 000.


She informed the court that the claim before the court was for payment of arrears of rent for the tenancy year of May, 2014 to June 2016.



When asked whether he was liable to the claims or not, Garba admitted the claims as presented.

“I am not denying, but I lost my job and have no money to pay my rent” he said

The magistrate delivered judgment in favour of Larix Properties Ltd.

“Having admitted the claims, I hereby enter judgment in favour of the plaintiff.

“The defendant shall pay N900, 000 as arrears of rent to the plaintiff for the period mentioned,’’ the court ruled.

I remember once when my dad gave me money to pay the electricity bill but instead i bought a lottery ticket for a brand new car. When i got home,i explained to my dad what i did and he beat the crap out of me. But the next day,when my dad woke up and opened the door,outside my house was a brand new car. We all cried especially me,because the car was from the the Nepal company,they were there to cut off the electricity, my dad beat the crap out of me again

Funny Judgment. The tenant admitted to the charge against him. But he says he has no money to pay. Yet the court is still ordering him to pay. Is the court going to give him the money?

*The Other Room*

By www.afrilaugh.com

In the other room
Hardened men become beggars
The queen becomes the king to
The king, just a beggarly page

In the other room
We cry for joy
Beg to be injured
For there, we enjoy pain

In the other room
We beg to suck milkless breasts
Accept every proposal
And promise any thing

In the other room
Fate of nations are decided
Destinies of men are fixed
Death warrants are signed

The other room
What a room! "

You didn't have money, yet you didn't settle out of court.

That tenants' motive was to jump the rent else, why not settle some months off with the money used in paying his lawyer ?

Some Nairalanders think with their așses. I should keep you in my house for 2 years even when you don't have hope of giving me my money. God punish you all

If you don't know anything about the law and you have nothing to say why not just be silent. You think judges are stupid? A man "has no money" and wants to live in a house of 450k and does so for two years with no plan to move? He should go and stay at Nicon Noga and tell them that story. He then comes to court and admits the debt without showing any intention to pay So if I borrow money from the bank all I need to do is just say I have no money and the case is over?
Now the landlord can get bailiffs and start seizing his property. Thankfully we now have BVN so a court order can open up his accounts. After they sell everything he has and that is not enough if he is a salary earner they can get an order for regular deductions from his salary and if not they can keep the judgment for future execution. He on the other hand can file for bankruptcy and see where that gets him.
A very good judgment!!

Nice judgement. If you lose your job and can't afford to pay rent, is it not honorable that you pack out of the apartment. Why wait until you are dragged to court.
