I am a yearly tenant and do not owe my landlord. The man decided to be greed and I had no option but to report him to office of public offender.

It happened that his negligence almost cost me my life and destroyed my properties, AC, TV, Shelve, speaker etc.

When it happened people told me to claim damages but I refused citing that I didn't want to take advantage of the situation, being alive is enough for me. The landlord was even begging me not to report the matter than he will compensate me. I told him I have no intention of reporting it, that he should just fixed his house back.

This man didn't fix the house, I called and called but he refused. I had to fix it myself and moved in because searching for a house is too expensive. I needed more time to search and get a better place. For two months I was out of my house because of the job going on. But when I moved in, I was surprised that this same landlord that begged me to be calm came and started disturbing me to pay his rent.

I was surprised, my rent hasn't expired, for two months I didn't stay in the house because of your negligence, my properties got damaged and I am not asking for compensation, I just moved in, yet to settle and you are pressuring me for a rent that hasn't expired.

I told him I will pay when my rent expires but will remove the money I spent doing work he wasn't supposed to do. This man refused and started shouting. I didn't expect him to behave the way he did after every thing that happened so I told him, I will be packing out of the house instead when my rent expires.

To my surprise the man brought a quit notice and asked me to leave his house the following month. Now that action got me angry and I decided to ask for compensation for my damaged properties.

Today, I filed a formal petition costing everything that got damaged and everything amounts to one million. The person handling the case after narrating the story to him and showed him video and picture evidence he became so angry and further extended the case to Lagos State Building agency which means the house will be surveyed for structural integrity and if it fails the test, demolish will follow.

I didn't want to toe this part but the landlord allowed greed to blind him. You caused someone damages worth millions, he didn't request for pay back, his rent is still running yet you are pressuring him to pay days after he moved in.

Let him face the consequences of his greed

His greed will only kill him and that's it. The major reason for his action was that he noticed you have renovated which will fetch him more if you leave.

Your story is full of holes! What exactly caused the damage? When did you notify the landlord of the issue? You're here bragging about potential demolition but unless you can state the specifics of what caused the actual damage, nothing will happen to the house, only thing you'll accomplish is making an enemy of your landlord, best advice is for you to start looking for a new place.

Some Landlords are crazy. My cousin told me his Landlord refused to give any of the Tenants key to the main gate. He locks it by 8.00pm and will shout at you when you come home after that time. They are just 3 tenants. He said he nearly broke down the gate a day he came by 9pm and was hitting the gate for almost 30 mins without him coming out to open it . It sounds insane to me when he was narrating it. You have to teach this one a big lesson so that he won't take other tenants for granted in the future.

Re: I Reported My Landlord Today by byteem: 5:33pm On Oct 08, 2022
Ur story doesnt add up.. there were damages u fixed and insisted you will debit from.rent so u fixed it as u claim. U were not around for two months and ur properties got damaged by who .. now u seek compensation from landlord for damages .. who gave u quit notice after asking u to renew ur rent before it expired now u reported him to public defender and you feel lik jagaban.. ur story doesnt add up and there are always two sides .. urs seems off

. but just a lil bit of advice .. public defender is no court and only serves the purpose of mediating dispute . They cant impose any liability or obligation on a landlord . and cant stop a landlord from ejecting you from his property ..their role is more coercive..they have no force of law
