Hello nairalanders, I trust God we are all fine... happy new year to you all.
Without wasing time I will love to go straight to the point. Comrades and erudites in the house please, I like to know if it's right for my landlord to break into my room and throw out my properties

The crux of the matter.... My rent expired on the 12th of January 2022 today is 14th and my landlord is already threatening to throw out my luggages should I fail to pack out before Sunday, 16th of this month because I promised to pay him yesterday but failed...I pleaded with him to understand that I'm having a little challenge.

I'm a student in the day, security guard at night this I have been doing for the past 3yrs to see myself through school instead of dropping out after I lost my sponsor...I actually had plans of paying my rent before 10th of January with the help of my December salary but it's rather unfortunate that uptill now my boss is yet to pay my December salary...and my landlord doesn't have patience in his dictionary, I can't even go to my room any more because of his threat...I'm just hanging around hoping to see salary alert any of this days but should it tarries and he goes on to throw my things out what can I do? Plus is he right to do that?

Please honourable nairalanders your input in this matter will be highly appreciated...

Yes if you are owing him.

If na those one room apt landlord
They are always prone to angers
Cos na plenty wife they always marry.
In nuff shell he can trow it out.
Because he is hungry

No .. very wrong...a mad Man will behave like that no matter what happened

Locate the nearest Office of the Public Defender (OPD) in your vicinity. You can check them out online. OPD is the Lagos State parastatal responsible for such issues and you will not pay a dime.

In 2pac's voice : I love paying rents when then rent's due
I hope you got the diamond necklace I sent to ya

Lights up my kpoli in peace

that's not what he meant in the lyrics

A landlord can't do you anything
without first giving you quit notice.

If he tries it, he is in big trouble.❌❌❌

I hope you have your receipt records and
are not a monthly tenant.

He has no right


If you're a "yearly tenant" paying yearly as it is in the agreement, he would give you half of "yearly" when you want to pack out, and if "six months" (half a year), you would be given half of that before pack out, so manup.

Just manup and don't talk to him until he carries out this threat without any legal backup.

If he is Yoruba landlord and you are an Igbo tenant, kpokpo am well well if he has no legal backup, igbos go rally round you to pursue the case. You go cash out.

Talking from experience

I don't think he can throw you at just days after the expiration of your rent. He has to give you a quit notice up to three months.

Total and legally wrong, irrespective of whatsoever.

Get a good lawyer n sue the bastard ASAP.

I don't understand how you want to pay your rent with a month salary from yo security job.. OP, tell us what the koko is from your end..

if I say you should sue him now,I don't think you have financial backing to do that,I'll advise you,you let them know your current situation at your work place to pay you on time to settle your rent first or lend you....I pray you find a helper here by God's grace...

My brother!
What if your landlord had promised someone also and you are failing him...and the person is threatening him too?

This is what we should always put into consideration. You are asking us if it is right if he throws your belongings out cos you want to stay off the area...right?

This is the usual behavior of Nigerians. If it is not house rent, this is the way you will be silent and not face the issue.

Go home and keep talking to the man. He will not throw you out. That's what I will say. Staying away is bad. It is your mess that you haven't paid and face it. It has nothing to do with the man.

I agree that its unfortunate your boss is treating you this way... let your boss also know you are about to be thrown out. The man too must not suffer na.

This is your season to cash out.... report to the police and tell the police how your 500k went missing

If your December salary can pay your rent that means your November salary could have paid it too. Why didn’t you pay it with your November salary to avoid this embarrassment?

RoyalBoutique:


First of all, you should have a separate bank account for your bills.

This is where you put in a percentage of your salary every month, so that by the end of the year, it will not choke.

Secondly, no your landlord has no right to throw your things out.

Thirdly, you can take him to court if he does. If you don't have money for a lawyer, there are many pro bono lawyers that hang around the court.

Either way, you must get justice.

It depends if he sign tenant agreement because mine the landlord and his lawyer have the right to remove my stuff if I did not pay when my rent is due.

Sue him and claim damages

Find way and give him his money, you can approach your church for a soft loan. If he throws out your belongings there is not much you can do in Nigeria.

The landlord is wrong go to human right office and you can also locate them at the nearest police station. Human right will help you go about the matter and help in finding a solution.

maybe that's how you want to make money this year be that, let him break it and name the price of your missing items. Then go to court with him

He can't do that unless...there is procedure for everything..... E has to give you quit notice first

Just pay up,9 months pregnancy can't be suddenly anymore,
Go plead for the most certain time
Don't give a date you are not sure of again.

Ayemoso17:
Take him to court and lie against that you about #2m in that room I swear to God he will pay every Kobo.

The man will go to his village jazz, carry money wey dem don cook come give the guy, the guy go collect then kpai later.

E be like you no know say na Nigeria you dey.
