i prefer living with other tenants to the Landlord. They can milk u dry through payment of water, waste and electricity bills. Next time chose wisely

How much you pay for NEPA bill depends on how many points you have in your room(s). Some tenants use more points than even the landlord himself.

A reasonable landlord who do not want and is not in any way ready to cheat on his tenant will play transparency to the core. List the names of his tenant accordingly to their room/flat and put how many points of electricity each tenant is using.
E.g; some tenants are using A.C while your landlord only limit it to fan and hand-fan.

Where what you are using in the house pass you, you have no option but to pay more than your landlord

Some landlords are heartless. This is sth they'd fight for if their child somewhere else complained.

If your land Lord insist, buy yourself a good 5Hp AC and two deep freezers for ice water business, see how he'll choose to renegotiate.

This is exactly what iam going through right now. Iam staying in a single room though it's tiled and spacious but this nepa bill of a thing is getting me pised up,how would i be paying 1k per month where i do not have Tv, fan or even the least thing like music box.. And the most annoying thing is that,all my landlord care is money..he doesn't want to know if am having difficulties in withdrawing money or not.
I prefer prepaid meter honestly.

Hope you have a written agreed sharing formula for NEPA bill payment?

When you want to pay rent, deduct his payments made on his behalf.

While at it, keep all records of NEPA bill paid and the amount you paid too.

If you both live in the same compound, then you have to share the NEPA bill. It’s not his fault that you don’t have any electronics so far there is light in the room and sockets, then you need to pay
Re: Is It Good To Share Equal Amount Of Money For NEPA With Your Landlord? by livinbygrace: 2:16pm On Feb 21, 2023
No landlord should pay all the bills inlcuding your feeding allowance.You people will just come online and be asking nonsense question.
Ifhe easy to build house,go build your own.
Re: Is It Good To Share Equal Amount Of Money For NEPA With Your Landlord? by FireUpNow(m): 2:17pm On Feb 21, 2023
You and your Landlord should count all the points in the whole building then divide by the total amount of bill. So the number of pints you have is what you have to pay for Nor fall your hand oo OP. Landlords have a way of cheating tenents

Another landlord bashing thread. angry


If it's both of you why shouldn't it be shared equally, even Nepa sef doesn't look at what you have or don't have before they bring their humongous bill.

I prefer prepared meter honestly.

How much would you want to pay? How much is Nepa bringing as bill to the compound, what percentage of that bill is the 1k you are paying.

Sorry if Nepa doesn't care and still bring bills why do you think your landlord should. Landlord is not the one generating bill naa, it's the system.

Shared prepaid is even worse except you guys understand each other well and everybody using it is honest.

This nonsense problem is because of government and PHCN that cannot make meters available for every Nigerian at very pocket friendly prices eg Not more than N10000 based on our population.... It should be something any electrician can fix not until one calls a PHCN staff.

Now, u see single people who may not have much appliances paying bills of family people.... U wen no get AC, fridge, even TV( may be one just have PC) will start paying bill like say him don get wife and kids...

This is one of the reasons voters need to angrily vote well on Saturday.

RULE NUMBER 1





NEVER RENT A HOUSE THAT DOES NOT HAVE PREPAID METER.

No be lie. Very important. That's the number one thing one should look for when renting a house. You have your peace of mind. The day it finishes, it's to recharge it. If there is no money o, they stay in darkness.

You pay for what you use. Unlike post paid meter that NEPA will be disturbing your compound every month with exorbitant amounts.

Never will I stay in a house without a prepaid meter.

See wetin u dey ask? Does NEPA knows which one be landlord room or tenant room?
Once bill comes incase of compound wey no get meter, they should divide it by number of rooms n share it equal!

Not suppose to be. It common sense from your landlord but these so called landlords/ladies are too greedy and self Centre nuisance. So what to do?. Just pay, for the sake of peace if not them go mak your life miserable for there. Better looking out for a house where you don’t hav to co-habit with your landlord/lady. It’s a dirty setting. Them go monitor you no be small. Like monitor lizard. You will be a center for gossip. Them go even dey determine your going in & out! They’re possessed..!

The single person will still be cheated since most compounds don't have individual prepaid meters.

Only solution is for him to bargain and up his electricity use to meet theirs eg instead of wasting so much on gas, use electric stove( may not be 3ce a day... Cook once and warm even with the heat from it after putting it off).
