Na Wa Unbelievable!!! Neighbour Illegally Taps Water Supply by Emmayorejoice: 11:39am On Sep 10, 2022 |
I have heard of neighbours tapping or stealing from a neighbours big generator before. I have also heard of neighbours stealing from another neighbours Fuel supply But this is a first for me and I am a witness. Recently we did not have power supply for a little over 4 days due to a faulty transformer. On a particular day we pumped water into two water tanks and it finished under 4 hours. These are tanks that ideally should last well over a week. So it was obvious there was a leakage. Today a plumber came to investigate and discovered the compound at the back had linked a pipe to our own and has been TAPPING water for God knows how long. Well he has been disconnected and he will surely have to sort himself out. As he no go fit talk am out 2 Likes 2 Shares

If you do your findings, your landlord probably gave them access to the water tank of his own will. Linking pipes isn't something you can do in secret unless you're dealing with really crafty elements 2 Likes |

Sekoni003: Very unlikely the compound behind is occupied by squatters. The landlord does not stay in the compound and would have informed us of such arrangements |

Emmayorejoice: Oh okay. Try and confirm if he knows anything about it. If it turns out he doesn't then this would be quite interesting, those guys are crooks |
Re: Na Wa Unbelievable!!! Neighbour Illegally Taps Water Supply by Emmayorejoice: 12:34pm On Sep 10, 2022 |
Sekoni003:Doesn't matter. He has been cut off. So such leakage would not happen again |

Imole001: It's a decent estate but there are a few undeveloped properties here and there. The compound behind mine is among them and occupied by squatters |

Boss, we all know that things are quite tough in today's world. And humans keep turning into something else day by day. I suggest you let them know you are aware of that instead of disconnecting them completely. Also, both parties can have a balance if it is within your means so as to reduce the distance they would have to cover to get water. 3 Likes |

Emmayorejoice:Oh, you shouldn't inform them, just disconnect ASAP |

Stallionhorse:The compound is behind mine and so on another close. It would be more realistic for them to liaise with their neighbours on the same street. The fact that they were crooked means they should continue, no need for discussion |

For your sanity; disconnect them, you can't control their water usage and you'll end up hurting yourself. Because water is important, you can run a short tap and let them fetch outside your compound if you can afford it. That way, you can control the quantity of water drawn from your tank 1 Like |
