WAECMATHEMATICS......My family has been in similar position. The tenant will do nothing, tbh. It will still end in another sort of legal tussle whilst he remains there.

No gentleman sth again. He knows what he is doing, he wants to remain there and find some thing to institute another case that will prolong his stay.

Take out his power firstly, he remains
Take out his door, yes....you will fix it when he leaves.

Give him two weeks....tell your family to pay police officers then use thugs...yes thugs, take his stuffs to the streets, na so our own take go. (WE ARE VERY GOOD CHRISTIANS TOO).

Wow! Really?

Thanks for this.

xpmode:
Sue him to court, demand for full year rent.
Before then write a another notice to him that you are taking the case to court if he fails to settle his rent of move out of the apartment.

Failure to settle his rent or move out, means the agree to settle the case in court of law and will bare the court expenses.

______
Now you have dug the grave for him. No matter what, he is going to lose the case and will be forced to pay you compensation, at least the extra months spent.

If you don't can't do it alone, walk in any lawyer's way he will help you secure favorable judgment,since you have a good case

Thanks

So that is why he shud stay in a 2 bedroom apartment for free? While the landlord family probably starves? Or u think they don’t rely of the funds from the rent?

The man is obviously irresponsible if not he wud have found another apartment even if smaller. This kind of people take advantage of good people. They shud have him ejected by force after serving him a forceful ejection notice to give him time to park his loads out.

The law say atleast 6months quick notice after that u are at liberty to eject the tenant whichever way u like. He has gone 10months isn't that fair enough for a sane and reasonable person?

What Rubbish!!!

I hate to sound like this but its kinda a norm amongst some greedy Igbo's to rent your house and refuse to pay,he(tenant) is building his house that he intends packing into
I am speaking from a real experiences I had
***The options you have are:
1.Involve the police
2.Disconnect every disconnectable(roof,water,power,
3.Report him to his pastor
4.Buy a good padlock n lock them in/ out
5.pray cause the tenant might be using JAy Z on you

Thanks. There are actually many good Igbo tenants. It's this one that's a thief in disguise.

KenOne:
OP like someone suggested to you file a case against the tenant in magistrate court immediately with the evidence of the center of abitration settlement of given him 6months to leave and other reminders.

The extra months he stayed after the agreed 6months by both parties before the centre of abitration he'll be forced to pay by the court.

The court will confiscate his properties through the court bailiff and auction them to pay you.

You guys wasted almost a full year chasing shadows by going to centre of abitration that can not act instead of going to magistrate court to evict the stuborn tenants within that 6months.

Thanks. We've learnt our lessons.

Venerable612:
PLEASE DO NOT TAKE BOTH OF THIS ADVICE.

Like the Lagos Mediation Centre told you - under Nigerian Law, and particularly Lagos’s Tenancy - you cannot resort to Self-help. Even when you have served the statutory notices.

So it means YOU CANNOT FORCEFULLY EJECT HIM from your house or you risk being sued for unlawful ejection Yourself and having to pay for damages.

What yu can do is this.

INSTRUCT A LAWYER

If the value of the Rent is less than #10M, proceed to the Magistrate Court. You can institute an action for ejection and serve it on the Tenant.

If the Value of the Rent is above #10M, then you must proceed to the High Court immediately to the same as above.

Note: on both cases, you will normally take a Writ to enforce the judgment of the court on ejection. With that, the Sherrifs in the court will be the one to come eject him from your house themselves.

ANYWAY - that’s if you want to do it legally. Otumokpo, Ogun lakaaye or any traditional means may be a faster and cheaper means . Just kidding.

Thanks for your advice.

Hope it'll not drag for months before he's ejected by the court's Sherrifs.

For the traditional means, can you shed more light on it? grin

Good day all.

Please, I need your advice on one wicked stubborn tenant. My family gave this our tenant a quick notice since February this year 2019. As a matter of fact, the tenant and our family went to Lagos Arbitration and Mediation Centre. It was at the Mediation Centre that we both reached an agreement that he should leave our apartment.

So, we gave him 6 months quit notice in February, 2019. His previous house rent elapsed that same February, 2019. So, for the 6 months quit notice we gave him, he didn't pay any money. He actually said he would need 6 months to search for another apartment at that meeting we had with him at the Mediation Centre in February. So, we gave him the 6 months for free.

The 6 months we gave him elapsed at the end of August, 2019. When the 6 months elapsed, he refused to vacate the apartment. So, my family went back to the Lagos Mediation Centre to complain. The Mediation Centre sent him (the tenant) a letter giving him 7 days ultimatum to vacate the apartment. At the end of the 7 days, this man refused to leave. My family complained again to the Mediation Centre and they said they would look into it.

After another 3 months again by last November, 2019, this tenant refused to leave the apartment. My family went back again to the Lagos Mediation Centre and one of the officials there said "So, the man has not left the house since?". We responded yes. At the Mediation Centre there, they said something like they are incapacitated by the law to take any action.

This is December now going to an end. The tenant is still in the house. He has refused to vacate the apartment. It's about 10 months now living in our apartment without any payment. He has refused to leave.

The apartment is a 2 bedroom flat in Aguda Surulere, Lagos. The tenant's name is Mr Chigozie Okongwu James.

We don't want to take law into our hands as it seems there is no solution to the problem through the Lagos Mediation Centre. It's about 10 months now!

What can my family do to get the man ejected from the apartment? Your advice are welcomed.

For the office politicians who destroy the careers of their fellow colleagues because of their ambitions, the repercussions of their evil actions lie ahead of them. It’s just a matter of time. Some call this “Karma”. For innocent teachers who would not want to be entangled in office politics, we can take the following steps:

1. Be dedicated to your work. Put in your very best to ensure success of all your students.

2. Live peacefully with all your colleagues both the junior and the senior.

3. Stay away from gossip.

4. Avoid telling colleagues your personal or family life. They might use it against you. Some of the colleagues you consider friends are actually spies for the office politicians. They are hypocrites. They are enemies in disguise. When you experience an attack or downfall from the office politicians, that is when you’ll see their true colour. They’ll always be on the side of the office politicians because they are in the same caucus.

5. If you’re sure an injustice is being done against you especially by a superior, report to the higher authority like the head of school, director, etc.

6. Be prayerful.

7. Be always prepared for the worst. Sometimes, leaving an organisation might be the best for us. We wouldn’t know because our knowledge is carnal. Perhaps, God has a better plan for us.

6. Being fetish and diabolical: Some of the office politicians especially in this part of the world are fetish and diabolical. They do this in addition to their physical actions in office to achieve their aims. There is a reported case of a senior teacher in a school who forgetfully left antelope horn tied with red cloth in a drawer in his office! Antelope horn to do what? These are 21st century graduates ooo.

5. Friendly look and appearance: Office politicians are very good at this. They would laugh with you, they would joke with you, they would sometimes even ask about your welfare. Meanwhile, what they have in their minds against you is more demonic than that of satan himself. Some of them learn this from the 48 Laws of Power, a book by American author Robert Greene.

4. Sack or demotion of innocent staff members: Desperate office politicians especially those in higher positions, sack or demote innocent staff who do not belong to the caucus they created. They see those innocent staff as threats to their ambitions in the organisation. The moment an innocent teacher joins the caucus they created, then, “all his/her sins have been forgiven” in Oshiomole’s voice. If an innocent teacher who doesn’t belong to the caucus is a very dedicated teacher, and they find it difficult to fire him/her, what these office politicians do is to set a trap for him/her. More than 90% of the innocent dedicated teachers would fall into the trap. This is one of the greatest evils committed by these office politicians. I have seen a situation where a teacher teaching senior secondary students was demoted to the creche by an acting principal! To do what in the creche? When the principal was asked why he did that, his response was “It’s all about the job.”

3. Creation of caucus among staff: Desperate office politicians especially those in higher positions create a caucus among the staff for themselves, just like political parties create campaign group. They force many staff members into the caucus with threat and blackmail, e. g. issuing incessant queries to the staff members. Some other staff members would join the caucus just for “eye-service”. These staff members in the caucus automatically become the footsoldiers for these desperate office politicians. If you don’t belong to that caucus, then, it would only take the grace of God for you to survive in that organisation. No matter how beautiful your work is, it would never be seen as something good. You would be seen as a rebel simply because you refuse to join the caucus.

2. Condemning the beautiful work of fellow colleagues. Many of the office politicians condemn the beautiful work of their fellow colleagues in the presence of the overall boss. They do this so that they can be considered superior and also to be promoted to a particular position ahead of their fellow colleagues. Unfortunately, the overall boss buys the idea in most cases and sees other innocent colleagues as inferior.

Office politics simply involves competition for status or power in a workplace. In schools, office politics simply involves competition for various powerful status or position like position of principal, vice principal, head of school, deputy head of school, head teacher, director, etc.

The competition is so severe in some schools that some of the ‘office politicians’ (teachers) can do anything to achieve their aims. Some of the things or evils carried out by these office politicians include:

1. Sycophancy (“Eye Service”): This is simply the act of being active with work only when you see your boss or people around. Majority of the office politicians are sycophants. They are very active only when the boss is around and become lazy drones when the boss is absent. Sycophants do everything possible to be praised by people or their bosses and to eventually get promoted. They go about gossiping about other people to their bosses in order to earn praise or favour. They destroy the careers of many of their colleagues with gossip in order to get promotion. This is similar to what politicians do during elections.
