Myself Vs My Landlord by DanZenithh(op): 4:04am On Jun 08, 2019
Good day everyone,

Please I need serious legal advise on how to go about this. My landlord is giving me a tough time and I'll like to tackle it with him legally, reason why I need law people to help me out. This is my 2nd years plus in his house, my rent will expire by August 31, about 7 months ago the old man and myself have been having issues in sharing NEPA Bill (phcn), and after much talks I always pay whatever he claims to be my portion, recently (last week) he has to disconnect my apartment from power supply due to our usual point of disagreement, like that's not enough, yesterday I was served a quit notice by him to vacate the apartment. Now my questions is

1. He has cut me off from power source, and I still have three good months before the expiration of my payment.

2. He served me quit notice on 7/6/2019 and my payment will last till 31/8/2019, he claimed that quit notice is three months to the expiration of rent (instead of Six months).

My amiable lawyers and law people in the house should please advise me on what to do and how to go about this.

In anticipation of your responses, I thank you.

Let's wait for the more knowledgeable ones. But before then, let me drop this: Never stay in a house with the landlord or landlady living in it.

My dear,

Just plan and pack out of his house

Leave him for nature to deal with him

He can be diabolical and I don't want you to be his apparatus

1.he has no right to cut u off. u need to seat down and ask politely the manner the nepa bill is shared and the amount. so that u can be connected.
2. if u pay annually u are entitled to six months notice. however if there is an agreement pls read the agreement especially as to the length of notice. however the period of notice IS NOT rent free
