This is a good development. My House Rent is Yearly while my salary is monthly. It is always difficult to pay the rent at once but if it can be spread it can give tenants some respite especially in a place like Abuja where rent is abysmally high except you want to live in discrepit locations and environments where you would not like to raise your children 2 Likes |

Go school you no gree go, oya make i explain to you: some landlords normally demand for 2-3yrs payment of rent, so what this law mean is that they should stop it. That the highest a tenant should pay is 1yr for those wey dey pay yearly or 6months for those wey dey pay monthly. 2dream: 4 Likes |
