Darlingme:
Have you ever had an experience of a tenant who has refused to evict a house even after the rent expiration?

Despite all the notifications and reminders?
Someone you told a year before and you kept on reminding him.

What's the best option for such a tenant who is threatened you the house owner that he is free to stay for another period of 6 month after his rent expiration, claiming he is yet to find another house to move to. according to Nigeria law.

He has stayed for free for three months already.

What would you advise?

Its interesting to see everyone here linking the President to the judgment of the court without proof by the way. That is the level we have descended to as a society. Now if one of you is sued now, you will be crying for justice. The case against the owner of AriseTV had nothing to do with the President, and multiple newspapers gave PBAT the Man of the Year because of his policies. No President has had the balls of steel to do 25% of what PBAT is doing....the killings of the leaders of the terrorists is one of such examples.

Lagos Govt provided documents for the settlement with the lawyer representing the church. Now, the church says the lawyer was not supposed to represent the church. Someone is lying, and the lawyer should be debarred. I also feel the church may be pulling a stunt so people won't know they had reached a settlement to close the school and push the kids out. It is hard to know what to believe, but the demolition continued because Lagos Govt had and presented all the documents.

The General Overseer of Omega Power Ministries (OPM) , HRM Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere has expressed disappointment at the action of the Lagos State Government to demolish his church and the free school located at Cele.

He threatened to sue the Lagos State Government over the property who he alleged is about N1bn in value.

Los Angeles Fire - While it is shocking and sad to see this, I am actually shocked that they have done nothing to mitigate this after all the previous fire incidents. Remove trees that can escalate fire incidents, install emergency mega sprinklers that can be activated, create helicopter zones where you can launch helicopters to quench fires and buy and store tons of repellants or encourage fire repellant homes or services around all the fire prone areas. Hopefully after this incident, they would learn and make more significant changes. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results.

At some European airports including UK Germany Iceland and so on, we still use shuttle buses no matter how inconvenient or cold...so this is a welcome development because it speeds up getting in and out of the plane especially for our disabled folks. God bless Nigeria

Another smart move...we should be able to train pilots and military airforce men and women in all parts of the country. This would also lead to development in areas where these annexes are domiciled.

In situation where there is increased insecurity say in the North, we will still be able to keep training our pilots in other parts of the country. This is another welcome development. Do you think Peter Obi could pull all these off? Just be honest...we picked a leader with balls of steel.

We have politicians that are self-made billionaires. Joining politics provide power because money without power is not complete. Politics gives access and also helps to further expand business enterprises. So while we focus on the stealing, the access they get do more to expand their businesses. Some of the other things you call corrupt are already domesticated into the system...so if they are receiving N3m a month as salary...it is legal though not moral. You even need money to join politics, so that should tell you that most of them were never poor. How else would you afford the nomination form and campaigns? Even if you don't have money, you have access to those that have and can fund the campaigns. The same is true in the West. How many poor people are in the US Congress? Almost 99% of them are millionaires.

LiveData:
Yea "Most of our Politicians are successful business owners"

You are very right! They were so successful that they could afford everything even without joining politics...

Infact, our politicians are not even as corrupt as the world portrays them - seems like we hate "most of them" for no just cause - I mean how can "most of our politicians" who are successful be corrupt?

Most of our politicians are successful business owners. Some of their children are smart and could have gotten scholarships abroad. You speak as if you know all of their sources of wealth. Some of them were billionaires before they got into government, so you should be careful how you judge, which is why someone like myself would not contemplate being a politician because people can be ignorant thinking all my achievements are tied to being in govt. So because they are politicians, all their children should school in Nigeria? Even Obama, Clinton, Joe Biden's grandkids did not attend public schools or Trumps...only Elite private schools.

Nnamdipapa:
You know nothing about skill drains in our country.

These people are politicians who destroyed our systems before sending their wards abroad. I have no problem if they are private citizens, you don't see politicians abroad sending their kids to other countries for education or indulging in medical tourism. These things are shameful to even talk about.

Says who?

Solsix:
Good one, but people hardly fail waec exams now. You see the questions and answers even before you enter exam hall.

As long as they are spending their own money, let them run abroad. No one is stopping doctors and nurses from running abroad. The Govt should do more to replace those leaving. All I would say is...do what is best for you, but for those that are super comfortable in Nigeria, transition abroad will be easier...and for the doctors and nurses, look well before you leap so you do not find yourself doing work that is meant for non-degree holders when in 5-10yrs, you could be a consultant collecting UN money while in Nigeria.

Nnamdipapa:
It is also "opportunity" when all our doctors run abroad. How do we develop infrastuctures in our institutions if all the rich run abroad for schools and medicals.

I am a proud PBAT supporter, but I supported him for different reasons.

1. If Atiku had won, it would have been chaos given Buhari ruled for 8yrs, and the Southern Govs would not want to work with him. It would create a crisis we may or may not get over, because the North would want to support their own.
2. If Peter Obi had won, he would not have the balls to do half of what Tinubu is doing. It was clear he would have the lowest vote from the North, so the North would be against his Presidency. As expected, he would negotiate his way out by giving them everything they wanted.
3. Peter Obi would not be able to stop the Yoruba Nation people and the IPOB would see him as the person that ought to push their interests, so he would not have a foothold from the North, and the South agitators would be clamoring for independence. The fear, Nigeria would split up before the end of his 1st term, and or he would spend the 1st term begging everyone not to secede from the Union.
4. Tinubu has so many friends from all parts of the country, so it is a lot easier to be less suspicious of his actions if and when he decides to restructure.

The Support for PBAT was purely to keep Nigeria as ONE for some of us. You can call it selfish, but this is what I tell everyone. We are too interwoven to go our separate ways now. I have a cousin married to someone in Kogi, I have a sister married to an Igbo. I have an Aunt that went Edo and so on. We are ONE nation and ONE nation we shall be...and the church says Amen.

Its called opportunity..even in the US, the Rich send their kids to exclusive boarding schools and in the UK, same not the regular public schools...so everyone just want a leg up, and for some parents, they want to open more doors for their children. But you must be careful cos others have regretted making that move...the children ended up getting lost in the Western system.

Nnamdipapa:
And you tell me to leave my kids in Nigeria?
These people have benefitted a lot from Nigeria but do not trust our educational system.

I am so proud of you. I am in Ibadan not Lagos lol...so you are the big man here.

Can we copy and paste Gov Mbah to all the states, mostly the Northern States cos they seem to be confused on how to make something from nothing lol. We can use him in Ogun State by the way, cos Gov. Abiodun chai...God help us. .. just joking

All the Govs are trying sha..but Gov. Mbah reminds me of Wike, Mr Project. He has hit the ground running, and I am so proud of you Sir.

Lol which one have I built? You have no clue. Lets just say I have tenants so figure it out

DaddyCoool:
It is a paid ad



Na you sabi
Which one you don build?

A mansion is a large, impressive, or stately residence. The word "mansion" comes from the Latin word mansio, which means "dwelling, abode, habitation, or home". In the United States, a mansion is generally defined as a large, impressive home, often at least 5,000 square feet.

So technically that is a House not a Mansion

Solsix:
This one too nah mansion??

Who told you Billionaire is only in dollars? You speak like a western stooges. If you are worth more than 1 billionaire Naira, you are also a Billionaire. if you don't like it, go to court lol.

Key Takeaways
A billionaire has a net worth of at least one billion units in their native currency.
Net worth is the value of a person's assets, minus the liabilities they owe.
Billionaires can have a variety of assets, including cash and cash equivalents, real estate, and business and personal property.



You guys have bastardized the word billionaire in Nigeria.

'Captains of industry from Anambra ...' should have been better as the title.[/quote]

That is not true. You can only speak for yourself. All those Nigerians that paid Millions to japa have also seen good times, or how do you think they were able to afford to Japa? Lots of people are still making millions daily in Nigeria.

gidgiddy:
Except that while Canada and USA have seen some good times, nobody in Nigeria has ever seen good times

The economic struggles we see in Nigeria is not only in Nigeria. Canadians are going through their own issues, and that is the reason why the Prime Minister announced resgination. It is also the same reason USA voted out Biden/Kamala and went back to Trump. Inflation is real, shops are closing, businesses are struggling and job loss/recession may be imminent.

Wrong..campaign is different from State visits and during campaign, they are usually invited or it is coordinated by the State Party. You think Obama will just wake up and decide he is going to Texas then Georgia then Arizona...and so you know in the US, they don't even campaign in all states. They focus on purple states. Anyways, it is not surprising cos Peter Obi too is known to give out fake stats or compare Nigeria to countries with dictatorships lol

Ojuntana:
Eerm Presidents OBJ, Jonathan, Buhari, Trump, Obama went state to state for a whole year campaigning for second term... Where's my money? I hope you won't come up with any other silly excuse

To even read the excuse you gave for Tinubu's visits to Lagos. OK... what of OBJ's visits to Ogun state during his presidency to spend holidays? He was neither governor nor senator of the state and the state was even under opposition rule while he visited.

You do sound like Peter Obi. Tinubu was the two-term Governor of Lagos, Senator of Lagos, and has a massive house in Lagos. Visiting Lagos is not the same as visiting Kano. Then again, why should I need to continue to argue this? He is not going state to state, and if you can show me one President around the world who went state to state for a whole year in any sane country spending two days, I will send you some money Lol. Peter Obi knows what he needs to say to the gullibles. Presidential trips are very well planned, with security details sent ahead of time to assess risks and secure all routes. Then again, what do you know lol

Ojuntana:
Well, you just wrote a tissue of lies. The President is the chief executive in charge of the country. For anyone to even imply he can't visit a state except he's invited is the height of idiocy. It almost sounds as if the president is a prisoner in Abuja..
Well, like I asked the other guy. So all the visits Tinubu has been making to Lagos, was it on the invitation of Sanwo-Olu? What happens if Sanwo-Olu declined to invite Tinubu next year December? I guess he'll spend his holidays in Abuja right?

You think just like Peter Obi lol. So the President will book hotels with his entourage? Visit for 2 days or insist on visiting even if the Govs don't invite him? Move around states that require security planning. Do you even know the cost to the States to host the President? All the neighboring Govs will show up, politicians in that state will show up, or the President will say, I don't want anyone to come lol. Peter Obi thinks the President is a one-man show like he is used to. Even Joe Biden won't move around the US States anyhow. When there are emergencies here, the president stays aware, so they won't need to move assets to protect him instead of using them for emergencies. Like I said, Peter Obi is not smart lol

Ojuntana:
Which laws states that the president mustn't visit a state except he's invited?

And you said Obi is not smart

You come here to insult without knowing me personally lol. I agree it is wrong for landlord not to return damages and that should be spoken to before you move in. I interview my Tenants and I tell them they will get their damages in full if nothing is messed up, and I have been returning damage fees to their surprise lol. Even the one that moved out earlier to Abuja, once I got a new tenant into his apartment, I asked for his account number and refunded his 8 months rent due which was shocking to him.

So everyone is not the same. I revise rent every 2yrs and give all my Tenants 1yr notice so they can plan to save more or move after the lease is over. I shouldn't have to negotiate rent increases with my tenants. Did I negotiate prices of materials with them while building my houses? Nope.

When Govt make it harder for people to become landlords, they are just setting the tenants up. Like I said before, the Govt should instead put forth some regulations.

1. For old tenants, rents should be reviewed upwards every 2yrs. I think that is fair.
2. Rent increases should not exceed the inflation average of cost of materials released by the Govt. Fair.
3. All LGAs should have housing Courts that can easily and quickly resolve eviction, non payment of rents, return of damages and damages to properties.
4. Documents of tenants should be emailed to LGAs and a fee should be paid to LGAs by Landlords for each tenants.
5. Housing Courts will have jurisdiction to give orders and garnish accounts for non payments of rents
6. Provide conditions for which landlords may evict tenants
7. Provide appropriate timeline for which notification should be given if lease would not be renewed.
8. Register all agents and normalize agency fees and legal/contract fees
9. Enforce NIN requirements by all tenants and landlords
10. Enforce taxes on landlords as business taxes and ensure houses are conducive for living.

We can all agree that these are common sense solutions that govt ought to push. Both sides must see a win-win else one side will suffer. and I can assure you it won't be the landlords longterm

Bobodee09:
How many landlord return damages even when the tenant leaves Nothing damage in the house....the last house I moved from I paid 50k damage fee before moving when I wanted to move out I ask to the landlord to check the house so I he can return the fee .....the man kept dribbling and I left him to God.

Is funny how people like you are always narrow minded forgetting not everyone in family owns a house.

My both parents are landlord and by grace of God I will also be one someday but I never be callous and wicked to Increase house rent every year...never.

Only a wicked soul will support anyone Increasing service or product fee by almost 100% becos he/she feels the economy is bad every year.

Lol Peter Obi is not smart. The President can't force visitation on the states. There is also a cost to all these visits that Fed and States have to bear.

Did States invite the President and he refused to honor? Peter Obi should direct his criticism to the Govs asking why they are not commissioning projects up and down. We see what PBAT is doing in Abuja. That is the only state he controls technically

Forumites:
This is one of the things Obi told him to start doing.

The more they tell landlords what to do, the more they choke investment and housing leading to rise in rent and low supply. Do we have arbitration if landlord says he wants to increase rent and tenants say no?

Instead of calling on state govts to standardize rent increases and peg to inflation, they will be spewing nonsense that hurts the people they claim to be protecting. Soon, you will have mostly AirBnB and the weekly rate will more than double annual rent when calculated weekly.

A tenant moves in and pay N100k damages. On moving out, damages due to usage and increased cost of materials is now N350k, please who bears the cost? The landlords. Please let the landlords breathe lol.

Bobodee09:
It is unlawful and illegal for a landlord to unilaterally increase rent without first consulting or renegotiating the price with the tenant - Speed Darlington?s lawyer, Stan Alieke, says

Counsel to embattled singer, Speed Darlington, Stan Alieke, says that it is unlawful for any landlord to unilaterally increase their house rent.

According to Alieke, several courts in Nigeria have ruled in a plethora of cases that it is unlawful and illegal for a landlord to increase rent without consulting or renegotiating the price with the tenant.

Not surprised. Even my Mom that usually raise 50 opted for 30 this year, and to relieve the stress...I offtake and we share to families and friends as part of the NGO End of Year Giving.

No point trying to convince her to stop. She has been raising chickens for over 40yrs. She even planted cassava and made garri and pap out of it. By the way she is 75, and still supervises my site work everyday as needed and teaches at Sunday School.

So when you hear urgent 2k people complaining, I just shake my head. Things won't get easier as it is a worldwide issue now. The sooner we realize this and buckle up, the better. Even those in the US are lamenting, shops closing up...and the only silver lining. Thanksgiving, people and NGOs give out Turkeys and some schools give our food groceries occassionally.
