MrBigiman:
U cash on the Lagos states loopsided tenancy rule. I know tenant who remain in properties 1 year after, even when they are supposed to evacuate. They keep claiming they have no money yet etc. You must be Igbo, go to court everyday and see the number of Igbos humiliating Landlords, who went through sweat and blood to acquire properties.

If ur properties and monies where really moved, which is hard to believe, then my condolences. You should have used that amount to rent a property instead of holding on to someones house.

I'm yoruba & the Landlord is yoruba too. I wonder why people are turning it into a tribal issue & twisting the issues.

greggng:
We are just deceiving ourselves by saying we are one Nigeria. Tribalism is not helping this nation. The day we realise that bad people are found in every tribe, that will be the beginning of a new Nigeria. Let me give you an example. I have a 3bedroom flat which I gave a Yoruba friend who act as my agent to rent out. One day I visited a bar to enjoy my usual catfish pepper soup and I over heard some men discussing the attitude of the agent. According to them he refused to rent the house to any igbo person except a Yoruba person. No concrete reason was given except hatred. I listened to all their discussion and I confronted him to convince me why an igbo man cannot rent my house.....nothing concrete except hatred. So I got angry and decided to handle the matter myself . I went ahead to rent the house to an igbo man and he had lived their now for 6years without any issues. The point I am making is that no tribe is better than the other....and we 've bad people in every tribe. As far as shop renting and business is concern igbo people remains the best . That is why the survive in their businesses. Must shop rented by y orubas they cannot continue payment after one year. I have evidence of all the shops around me they 've left after just a year. They feel comfortable increasing it as they like when other tribes are occupying it. To narrow it down to the subject matter, the landlord has no right to break into your shop. There are due processes that must be followed to finally quit a tenant irrespective of his tribe. Ignorance of the law is not a defense. The woman has every right to claim anything inasmuch as she has evidence that her shop was broken. Now that she has reported the matter to the police, they should get that landlord arrested immediately .she should get a good lawyer . That man must learn a hard lesson .

By the way, there is no issue of tribalism here because I'm yoruba and the Landlord and all those who conspired against me are yoruba too.

Just because I refused to be extorted by the Iyalode as she used to illegally extort money & goods from other shops & stalls, she hated me & conspired against me by spoiling my name without just cause.

bqoND:
lies upon lies. Fucking leave the shop madam. all the good for your shop no even reach 200k. you have goods worth over eight hundred thousand and you can't afford to pay your shop rent. lol... what is 170k even doing in your shop.

I didn't say I couldn't pay my rent. Pls read the post again. The rent was ready for collection but the Landlord refused to collect it.

booqee:
what really happened that made the landlord and his people to start tormenting you? Cos I believe no one would wake up one day to start brewing hate to another for no reason. I know it's possible the landlord is a dick but something must have happened. Kindly tell please.

It's just pure jealousy & hatred instigated by the uneducated Iyalode who is the Landlord's late brother's wife. On that street, which is a very busy street for business in Abule-Egba, that Iyalode goes round to extort money from everybody every week most times. Sometimes she came to my shop and I make hair for her free of charge.

She is fond of collecting illegal money from all the shops & stalls owners every time. So sometime ago she came to my shop & asked me to give her my weavon which I sell and which cost over 10k for free which I refused and that was how she hated me & started conspiring against me & spoiling my name to the Landlord. She now connived with another tenant & said I must leave the shop. I've been there for over 5 years.

Even the Landlord confessed that I never offended him. The problem is that the Landlord is being controlled by & dictated to by the Iyalode. The Iyalode is a money monger, extorting most of the shops every time. So she now told the Landlord that she has someone who will pay a higher rent and that they should quit me. But started threatening me & didn't give me any quit notice. And some people here are supporting them I'm really surprised how some people reason.

By the way, as some people asked, they actually stole a lot of costly weavon, creams, relaxers and attachments and other things because my shop is well stocked and it's a very busy road, beside the Lagos-Abeokuta express road. You people should investigate & stop doubting. Because it didn't happen to any of you doesn't mean if it happens to another person you should not feel for her. It's not fair. Pls all of you should come down to the place & do your investigations.

Waaaao! I can't believe some people are doubting what happened to me on Wednesday. Is that how some people can doubt?

But I gave the address, why can't u go & investigate?

Somebody also asked why police invited him & did nothing after he didn't come. Well for your information, if you read my post very well, he was invited today 25th, he didn't come, so by Monday he will be invited again, if he didn't come he'll be arrested. Stop doubting. He and his people are still threatening me that's why I came here for help.

If the little girl ran the away as you have claimed, that means she ran away from those tour and hid her self so she won't be seen, which means she didn't see the men carrying anything from the shop. QED

I'm surprised you're supporting what happened, what they did. It's a planned work by these people to frustrate me to leave his shop. I'm in pains over the loss & you're here saying negative things.

cbrass:
According to your story, your shop was broken in the afternoon, so which means everyone saw them when it was broken. And no one saw them carrying the so called material u said was stolen and the money, by the way why did you keep money in the shop(though I know that's not true) where was you when your shop was broken. I suspect your lawyer advised to lie to the public to draw sympathy.

Yes there are witnesses, my neighbours and a young girl who is a shop attendant because I was not in the shop when it happened and the little girl had to run for her life because of the threatening way they came with those thugs. So don't say what you don't know.

dominique:
I'm with the 'let's hear the other side of the story' crew on this one. It's only those tenants have not shown pepper that will believe this one sided story

You are free to hear the other side by getting to see the Landlord & interview him. Let's see whether he will deny it. Let's see whether he will deny all the allegations.

cbrass:
You are economical with the truth. Though I won't condone the landlord breaking your shop, but you should tell us tje truth and pls don't bring that lies of you keeping some money in the shop

Everything in that post is the truth and nothing but the truth. You were not there neither did you know how it happened, yet you just concluded it's not true. Why being so negative minded?

cbrass:
This post must not be moved to tje front page. This woman is a liar. No money was inside your shop. Stop lying. This is what u tenants say when landlord forcefully evicts you

Why do you have so much negativity in you? So you have concluded it's a lie even when you've not investigated? I thought you said you wanted to investigate?

cbrass:
If we investigate well now, she may be the one at fault, its very hard to side tenants, let's hear the side of the landlord

Sir, how do u mean pls? Wrong in what way?

Are u supporting someone who committed such crime? Why don't u do your investigations & let's see.

overall90:
The landlord declined to collect your rent and gave you one month to vacate the said shop,in addition to all the harassment from iya this and that.

Hi Nairalandlers,

Pls I need your help and the help of well meaning Nigerians.

I am a hairdresser at Santos Avenue, Abule-Egba, Lagos. Since last year 2017 my Landlord Mr Bernard Adekunle Santos has been threatening and harassing me at my shop. He conspired with one woman they call Iyalode who is his elder brother's wife and they have been tormenting my life and business ever since then. They also conspired with one woman they call Iya Esther who is my neighbour and they cut off my electric wires last year and took the wires away and left me in darkness for many weeks last year.

Even when my Lawyer wrote them a letter to return my wires which they maliciously stole, they refused to return them. After stealing my wires, the Landlord now came and asked me to go and apologize to the person that stole my wires even when I never offended her, rather they were the ones that conspired to cut off and stole my electric wires.

This year when I wanted to pay my rent to the Landlord he refused to collect it and told me that he gave me one month to quit his shop despite I'm a yearly tenant and he never served me any official quit notice. Since then he has been bringing thugs every time to threaten me in my shop. He has been threatening me that he will deal with me.

So on Wednesday 23rd May 2018 my Landlord Mr Bernard Adekunle Santos came to my shop in the afternoon and broke my shop, removed the door, stole my one hundred and seventy thousand naira and stole my goods worth over eight hundred thousand naira. This matter has been reported at the Area "G" Command, Ogba, Lagos. The police has invited the Landlord Mr Bernard Santos and including Iyalode and Iya Esther to come to the station on 25th May 2018 but they have refused to come to the station. On 24th May 2018 when we went with the police to serve them the invitation letter, the first son of the Iyalode by name Dare Santos was threatening to use charms to slap me and make me blind.

My life and the life of my 2-year old baby is currently in serious danger as they keep threatening to deal with me. As I write this my shop is currently without any door as they have removed the door and went away with the door. I have pictures and evidence of everything which I have attached.

I hereby call on the Lagos State Governor, His Excellency Governor Akinwunmi Ambode and the Lagos State Commissioner of Police and all well meaning Nigerians to come to my aid as I want justice to be done on this matter because I have suffered enough in the hands of this Landlord and the Iyalode. My life and the life of my baby is currently in danger as I've been receiving threats since that day. I want justice to be done on this matter.

Pls share this message until it gets to the Governor and the Commissioner of police. I'm not safe anymore. Pls help.
