All I can see is a bunch of foolish tenants blaming their foolishness on a wicked and shylock Landlord.
Let's start from the beginning. You are looking for an apartment. An Agent carry you go show you house without window, you like am. You saw the dilapidating structures you like am. Landlord told you the house rentage na 350k per annum, you no argue. He give you agreement you sign, you sign am..
You saw other tenants when you came there, you no ask how the house be . You go pay pack in. E reach time to renew rent, you come dey argue, and abuse landlord. Getat!
on d 6th of march a would be tenant approached me, to inquire of d house, I told her not to rent that we re all moving out as d structures re dilapitated & d landlord is a narcissistic, illiterate wicked man. That she will regret it. That she should avoid all akindele houses. He sent me packing that day that I was spoiling his business.

There is a reason why you inspect a house and ask questions from people on the street and even Co tenants before paying.


Its not that difficult to get that information in a place like Oworo, and yes there are people that seem untouchable like him even govt officials and police will not like his wahala maybe now its on Twitter the state go will look into it.

Besides people will still rent the house sef Some Lagosian's can live anywhere with their hard earned money.

Modified: aproko don carry me go Twitter, it's like half of Lagos has lived in that house, only one guy said he discovered landlords mumu button. grin grin

Abeg, gimme d link for d Twitter

Mehn, as the matter dey now, na snake, scorpion, rats, ants and mosquitoes I dey battle with daily. Funniest thing b say, I pay for 2 years

Still wonder how a person takes up accommodation in a place without windows, with their two eyes open. Unless these people are lying.

The thing is that most houses at iyano oworo and around are sinking sites!!!
When you rent them, from day one till your rent expires, one problem to another!

You go buy water tire grin, nepe bill dey increase everymonth( light sef you no see), what about mosquitoes, millipedes and other crawling things!! My husband really learnt his lessons in year 2019! grin
If you remember back in the day, there used to be one island like this when you drive along TMB? Recall that island is now merged as part of the oworo mainland as a result of dredging.

Use style next time you are on TMB and look at all those new houses from the bridge on that site and it's very visible without site mapping equipment to see that most are indeed sinking. There is a duplex that looks like it's almost tumbling down. Very scary

I sha know Nigerians are perpetually complex and contradictory people.

So much hot air, so much brags, so much shouts and loud mouth and agbari and threats and pride in traditional and spiritual higher powers and arrows, yet the country is a bumbling pool of human rights abuse and no one can do anything.

They can threaten and beef "car-owner and jollof-eating" innocent fellow neighbours, but to channel that energy to people that actually oppress them, they won't.

Like this David guy used to say, there is no elite class in Nigeria, because it is only in Nigeria that people who have money will still be receiving the same ill-treatment as paupers. Their monies can only get them so far and a few luxuries. Because I'm sure the people that stays in that same Ikoyi have money or vested interest in that building. Or maybe its crashing would negatively affect them, somehow, but here we are.

See that Syl's father too of Dowen. Wo.

Lol, in Nigeria when the government frustrates them, they riot and destroy fellow surffer head citizens livelihood.
They always channel their anger towards the wrong person/direction. So yeah. They make mouth where they feel they can win even if the person they are ranting at isnt the one tormenting them grin

If you did what that "would be tenant" did at the initial time when you were a "would be" tenant. That is making enquiries, the landlord would have put his house in order.

This is one of the issues. Male I no talk, make I no talk. No be say you dey fight any legal battle, abi you dey slander. Just type your experience for your phone, online, make people learn.

If you no wan share, why did you mention that you lived there? undecided What exactly is your "make I no talk" meant for? Ki ni reason?

As we know say you don live there now, so watin make we do with the bit?

Mtcheeeewwww.

Those are the types of people that watch others enter the lions den, and when the bones come flying out they say, "if only that guy knew".

Think it's a misery loves company thing. Or these people are sadists. I couldn't possibly live in such a place and watch another person move in without telling them something about the neighborhood.

But how do people enter and inspect a place like this without knowing it doesn't have windows? Sounds surreal.

The guy no normal o. You wouldn't want to

Magnoliaa:


They should threaten him back too with violence or bigger connections na. They should treat his fork up. Or ex-tenants who have mouth or know people that has, should charge him to court. Maybe for human rights abuse or something, anything. I don't believe anyone is untouchable at all o. Absolutely no one is. (Even emperors or presidents with the tightest securities CAN be gotten. Just a rebellion seed in an aide's mind) and then slip a poison in his food or plan an ambush. There are just levels of power. I don't see a person being completely powerless, still persons being helpless.

Normally too, people should have badmouthed him so until tenants start reducing and finally not a single person will come to rent from him. I hope this tweet too helps with that.

To say I know this house shocks me.

My own bi say I pack in. Light dey the day I went for inspection. Omo, only to pack in and no light come dey full full. You breathe and it comes back to you. Like you breathe out carbon dioxide and inhale carbon dioxide.

Agents will tell you there's water. After you pay, you'll start hearing “I meant there is water in the neighbourhood. Ours is a little faulty.”

Landlord is notorious for thuggery. Name is Akindele I think. Like army dey fear am. He's connected to politicians there.

I strongly advise you rent a place that's conducive for your health. Just save. I don't play with my health and serenity. I can never use my money to pay for a place without water. I can manage power outage if it's not permanent but needs a fix.


Tenants in that house look like they relate. Of course, they manage the same suffering.


How I escaped? I planned my strategy well. Begged Baba that I had an emergency relocation in another state but I'll bring sb..since I had sb willing to manage it. Even bought wine.

Baba agreed. I Japa. In fact, call me a Japan.

Thanks for bringing this up because all these agents are only after their fee...agents fee is almost rent fee these days, I remember during my NYSC days in osogbo, this evil agent said a room and a parlour 80k with his agent fee, I thought I got lucky that was how we jumped bike to oke baale ...i got the shock of my life when I realised the landlord was buried in the parlour. I could not believe my eyes, same parlour I was about to pay the rent, I didn't bother checking the room...I pretended receiving a call and left the evil agent with his fathers grave....how can I pay 80k for a burial ground...na make light no go for night....yeye people
