That's a subtle way of telling her to pack out. But I've always been discussing this with my friend, I can't pay more than 500k rent to any landlord in Lagos.....even if I'm earning millions monthly. Is better to stay in a room and parlour self-contain or two bedroom flat.... While working on building yours, than just cross leg in a rented apartment and paying exorbitant fees for a temporary luxury that can come to end at any time.

Nawao.

That's almost 100% increase. Quite outrageous.
Government should intervene by building more houses to crash these prices.

Nothing is illegal, you own the property, you do what you like with it. If you are not happy, bail out or go build your own.

Never going to happen, who are the ones that make up the government...the elites....and you want them to crash their own business. they own all the houses. The less houses they build, the more money they make. If i were you, i'll look for a small piece of land to buy and build a hut on it.
