Who Should Take Responsibility Of House Repair In This Scenario? by Ibime2003: 3:14pm On Feb 17, 2022
Armed robbers robbed tenant in the house, they destroyed the windows and doors while trying to force their way into the tenants apartment. Who should bear responsibility for repairs after the robbery incidence in this scenario, the Landlord or the Tenant?

Modified
Before the robbery incidence took place, on two occasions the tenant was making call @ around 1am in the midnight when everywhere was silent, he was talking to another person on the phone with his very loud voice mentioning huge millions of naira on the phone. The tenant is one of those people that can't speak with low voice on the phone. He was mentioning huge millions on the phone, that people outside the compound and the environment were hearing his conversation on the phone.

The landlord should fix the damage since it's HIS house and the tenant didn't invite the robbers did he?

The landlord. But the tenant can do it and subtract the cost from rent renewal. If you wait for the landlord, rapture may occur before he responds. But before you do it yourself, make sure you reach an agreement with him, otherwise, he may claim you did it out of charity.

You know say some landlord get (ogbaa) for head. But to me ooo, It`s going to be both of them ni ooo. The one that happens in my street here last 4 years, no be small fight ooo, the landlord said if the tenant fails to repair the damages he will sue him to court. Landlord wife & tenant wife beat themselves for this matter ooo.

Since robbery was involved

The tenant can fix it to his taste

The landlord may just replace it
