If u leave in Lagos I advice u to go to mediation centre the one at panti they will invite him over and I am sure he will regret and pay for your lost and damages.

I made a post about a month ago on Nairaland about my landlord. He gave me a quit notice when my rent is yet to due, we have not been in good terms, I was rest assured that I still have three months left so no need to panic.

I got home now and saw carpenters removing the roof of my apartment with two abled young men which I haven't seen their face before, the roof of my apartment has been removed now.

I went to the nearby station to lodge a complain but I was told the man had come earlier, and told the police has giving me quit notice that he wants to renovate his house.

It's really a hard time for me and my siblings, getting a quick accomodation. He never informed us of renovating the apartment, I just lost my job last week and this is happening to me again.

My life is in a mess right now as I don't know where to start from, this is just a challenge for me and I will stay stronger and fight this battle till the end, probably God is preparing me for a better place ahead....

Make sure you lodge official complaint at the nearest police station. If that particular station don't want to take your statement go to another place. For the fact that he wanted to do repairs should not be to your detriment. Take pictures and seek the services of a Lawyer. If you are in Lagos you can go to the Office of the Public Defender. They can sue on your behalf.

Please be strong, don't fight him nor disturb any of his tout but be very strong to fight for your right. Your Landlord just bought market if you know your way. Pray to God and be committed to defend your integrity and human dignity. You should be ready to sue him for damages.

You will become landlord one day. Abeg I for say not be all of them. Am not like that but only experienced wicked woman of god called past*r wey be wan kill me join my house.

As in ehn, many a time we had to loose 6 month rent cos of the seeming advantage tenants (even the stubborn ones) have over landlords when it comes to issuing them quit notice. No matter how nice or considerate you are, especially when they know you're gentle, they'll always misbehave.

There is no due process about removing a roof. The landlord should have gone the way of the courts to get a judgment. Everything after the expiration of a quit notice is by the action of the courts and the bailiffs who will enforce any judgments.

The landlord has entered gbese if the tenant knows what to do.


���� keep egging him on to his destruction you hear? You kukuma will not accommodate him after you've worsened his situation.


Wait ehn when you build your house, you'll be struggling it with people you rent the house to. Go to court with whatever token they pay you for the first rent inugo?

Sorry about that. He has no right to take off the roof when your rent has not expired , even after, except on the basis of a court order that you should be evicted.

This is not a criminal case for police. It is a civil matter. Get a Lawyer, who could start by writing Him a cease and desist letter based on the Law.

Wishing you the best through this challenging time.

The sad thing is some tenant think they have game
The lady forgot I was a Nigerian and a nonsense man
She have being acting like a fool for a long time
The only she stay that long was because of the conv-19
Now her kids will learn the rule


When you use one to set example like this, fiam, the others will borrow sense. Good of you to have patiently borne some of her shenanigans before dancing to her own tune. Some of them think house owners have no rights.

@OP,

Please look for a place, church or Mosque to stay for now. Do not go and start and case with your Landlord. Allow God to fight for you. I can understand what you are passing through but remain strong.

very funny advice, do you think tarpaulin stands a chance with a landlord that removed aluminum sheets,most times diplomacy can solve some issues,if you talked with the landlord he could have given you more time to look for alternate accomodations,I am a landlord with numerous tenants and stores,the game always favours the landlord anyway you put it and he will be one step ahead of you,it is not a smart idea to be enemies with your landlord,God will make a way for you.

Forget this talk. I have had a landlord who sent thugs to my business premises to chase out my clients physically because I paid him 80% of his rent when due at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. The man's father is a retired general.

But I change am for the man that day. The man thought that my coolness over the 7 years I was his tenant in that structure meant weakness. He saw madness of the first order. He thought he is the only one that has military people in his family.

Sending thugs to your business tenant of 7 years? The man crossed the line that day and he never believed he would see what he saw. Our matter was eventually settled by the DSS.

By the time I was leaving the place, the man will see me on the road and take a detour.
