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

So you wrote all this epistle without stating categorically the negligence or structural failure that occasioned you with all that expenses. If this was an English essay exam, you would have scored 12/100

You should have reported since before now and got all your compensation, he will think you are paying him back for asking you to pay his rent.

bigpicture001:
all of thrm are greedy

Not all of them, there are exemption and my dad is a good example.

Some of my dad former tenants are here on nairaland till date.

The only problem you will ever have with my dad as your landlord, is for you to stay in his house for 2 years without plans to build your own.

My dad is one funny landlord I swear, he will force tenant to buy land in lagos or ogun state and also force tenant to start building even if its 2bedroom .

He can collect monthly rent from a tenant and then use the money to buy blocks for the tenant as his own contribution for the new building of the tenant.

If you are looking for house and one agent direct you to my dad house, just know my dad will NEVER give you that house because he does not allow any tenant to pay agency or agreement money.

Very funny man

The joy of it, is that all of us his children are all landlord and landlady.


Just pray to meet the good one

Re: I Reported My Landlord Today by Omik1: 7:54pm On Oct 08, 2022
Was there a written paper when/where the landlord gave you a go ahead to make the repair? Was the repair for your own luxury life? ( As some people will rent a house with pit toilet and be expecting the landlord to turn it to a five start hotel standard toilet) when they were not promised such.

Did he agree to reimburse you what you expended in the agreed paper when u where doing the repair?


I asked all this because, that's what is contained in the Lagos State Tenancy Law..

If they take down the house what will be your gain?

Most tenants in Lagos hardly make repairs they are staying in a house but they want landlord to fix everything.

The worst is when they are packing they will remove as little as lamp holder

Those praising him
One day you go be landlord and you will understand
