Gbawe:
I knew Ambode will transform Lagos and that was why I was one of the few to state with certainty that he can do better than Fashola. Remember the thread below you contributed to?

https://www.nairaland.com/2684014/yoruba-commonwealth-politics/378


I left that thread when puffed up and arrogantly self-important yet ultimately ignorant posters like Katsumoto and his blind followership, who do not know the SW and have not set foot there in a long time if ever, started insulting Yoruba leader and branding them all "failures" to include Ambode. My argument was that you cannot be for progressive leadership and yet be unwilling to give new leaders a chance in a time when paucity of funds meant Governors may not move as fast as they would like to. Yet Ambode is disgracing them all to bear out my opinion that many of the present crop of SW leaders should be supported rather than derided hollowly and ignorantly because they are better than their compatriots throughout Nigeria comparatively and given the atmosphere they work in. Anyway I am just happy, as a Lagosian, that Ambode is 'coming good' as I insisted he would.
How will the 2nd Term looks like ? considering Fashola's over-performance in his 1st term too.

SW Governors are known to perform on their first leg, history has shown that their second term is a colossal disaster.

Examples:
- Fashola
- Aregbesola
- Ajimobi
- Amosu
Among others... Should we now call for just ONE term for all governors?

PropertiesRe: Vacating A House Before Tenancy Expires, Do You Get A Refund? by Firefire(m): 11:14am On Jun 25, 2016
azpekuliar:
Thank you for your contribution. Indeed according to the law (The Lagos State Tenancy Law for the purpose of this discussion) there is no section that states that a tenant is entitled to a refund of the unexpired term. It is a contractual thing between the landlord and the tenant.

However, I do not understand the part of your post where you say the landlord is not entitled to any payment (rent) from the tenant for a period having issued the tenant a Notice to Quit. I will like you to shed more light on this.
Read my response here and follow the link if necessary... https://www.nairaland.com/3186133/vacating-house-before-tenancy-expires/1#46913102

SUPOL:
sorry, I a situation where you know u not gonna stay for one full year, will d landlord accept half year payment? Dats 6 months if ur sure u will pack out b4 d 6months expires?
It depends on your original 'tenancy agreement', if you sign yearly rent, you have to abide by that and pay for full year rent as stipulated in the agreement.

However, if you know you will not stay up to a year, you can approach it the Nigerian way: don't pay when your rent expires and form you don't have the money... until you are 4 months gone into the year, you then pay six months, use another two months and pack out.

I will not advise you use a complete six months without paying by hiding under the Lagos law of 'Six Months Grace' for yearly tenant and 3 Months Grace for half-yearly tenant.

13.-(1) where there is no stipulation as to the notice to be given by either party to determine the tenancy, the following shall apply-
(a) a week’s notice for a tenant at will;
(b) one (1) month’s notice for a monthly tenant;
(c) three (3) months notice for a quarterly tenant;
(d) three (3) months notice for a half-yearly tenant; and
(e) six months notice for a yearly tenant

Please refer to the Lagos State Tenancy Law 2011 in the below link:

JuanDeDios:
If you want to vacate a house when your tenancy has not expired, are you entitled to a refund of the unused amount (that is, the amount paid for the remaining months)?
If in Nigeria, technically NO, but you might get a refund under certain conditions:

- If another tenant come let the apartment, you get your refund less the month(s) the apartment is not in use.

However, no Nigerian landlord will deep his hand in his treasury and refund you when you are the one terminating the tenancy agreement.

However, please read what you signed in your contract.

Bon Voyage.

Nigeria is a secular state, and no religious coloration in whatever forms should be encouraged.

If you wish to fully practice your brand of religion, there are dedicated schools/training center strictly meant for that purpose. E.g. Bible College, Islamic Training Centers, Traditional Homes for rituals, among others.

Aregbesola, continue.... the Osun Osogbo and all the worldwide Iyemojas are behind your divisive government. But note that you are on path of destruction.

Yorubas are peace loving people with tolerance for each other's religion and belief, you importing your brand of fanaticism breed hatred and acrimony to cause division among brothers.

Those whom the gods wish to destroy they first make mad.

Aregbesola, your reign in Osun will not be forgotten in a hurry, your time is counting down already.

Lalasticlala, Cardinal Olubunmi Okogie has a clear message for President Buhary as a precaution. A follow up on the open letter tagged: "Enough is Enough"
Christianity EtcRe: “I Told Tinubu That Buhari Would Fail” – MUST READ Cardinal Okogie’s Interview by Firefire(m):
Buhari may mean well for the country, but so far, his actions and utterances have failed to help put food on the table of the average Nigerian. So, my advice to Mr. President and his associates is this: do not take the goodwill that you enjoy from Nigerians for granted. Do all that is necessary to revamp the economy before things get out of hand.”

Extracted from: Enough is enough by His Eminence Cardinal Anthony Olubunmi Okogie

If Buhari wants to leave a creditable legacy come 2019, he should retool the bureaucracy
. For instance, the roof of the Central Bank is leaking water. Governors, who arm-twisted Okonjo Iweala into signing out our reserves held by Central Bank, are today ministers in the APC government. [/b] We are still talking about change and corruption when old things refuse to pass away! These political gimmicks can only carry away gullible or naive Nigerians. President Buhari should beam his flashlight on policies and programmes that will lift up the masses.

Existing industries are almost dead and call for urgent revitalisation. The budget ought to aid solutions to the mass unemployment, rural-urban migration, skewedness in the distribution of income, abject rural poverty and industrialisation of rural economy. The 774 local government capitals should be linked to their state capitals. Even the mind-boggling infrastructure deficits can take the entire tenure to address. The weakness in the bureaucracy has not been addressed. Consequently, the problem the APC government is trying to solve is bound to re-occur because it is treatment of effect rather than the cause. Causative factors are being totally ignored or glossed-over. Institutional weakness pervades the MDAs, offices of the Accountant General, Auditor General and the Central Bank itself.

Consequently, leakages in the economy have remained unnoticed and unplugged over the last 16 years of uninterrupted democracy. Our Change must change something! How could we continue to talk of change in a static system? How could we be talking of change, when the same crew are governors, ministers, senators, and members of the House of Representatives?

This is a cyclical devolution of power to the same people who are never out of power! What sort of change is the President talking about? When will the youth take over, when even a governor does not take a bow and go? When shall we plan for the replacement of delinquent leadership? This is what constitutes change.

When we talk of change, we talk of positive-salutary, healthy growth and development-oriented change that cuts across the entire gamut of the society. What sort of change is this that ignores the glaring un-equal distribution of national income? It is absurd that the same government that is unable to pay N18,000 per month to the lowest grade of labour can afford to pay N1.8 million per month to anyone in the economy.

- Why must taxpayers’ money be used to feed Mr. President and his family?

- Why must the taxpayers’ money be used to buy brand new exotic vehicles for the legislators, judges, ministers and governors, when they are already heavily paid?

- Why don’t they use loan finance and mortgage finance to buy their cars and houses?

This is also a form of looting and it is the cause of grounding the economy and calling in IMF spin-doctor all the time. Precisely two years ago, this same President Buhari rejected off-hand this use of spin-doctor to heal the ailing economy. He preferred the use of counter trade and inward looking policies such as cutting down cost and flamboyant exotic life styles.

Today, I am not so sure we have the same Buhari. I do hope he has not changed all the colours of the rainbow.

The ruling elite are living a luxurious life, while the masses are in abject poverty and yet we are all Nigerians. Enough of this change conundrum. He must retool, refocus, and aggressively lead by example on all fronts and face the social, economic (fiscal and monetary) problems we have head on, without letting the anti-corruption drive look like a political distraction.
