Pls help, how can I report my landlord to the Lagos State government as soon as possible?

Location is Ikotun.

I'm just tired of wicked Lagos landlords.

I paid close to N200,000 for the house, but later discovered that all the water used in bathing in the bathroom does not flow out, no drainage. The water is being soaked by the wall. The walls are soaked. My properties are spoiling already because of the too much dampness of the walls and floor. 

He promised to do it but he will never do it, because I discovered that's his usual style, to collect money and disappear. All the tenants are tired of his wickedness. 

The dangerous thing here is that the whole house is a duplex and it's upstairs (decking) with many flats upstairs but I stay downstairs, so it's very very dangerous for me because of the walls in my room soaking water continuously, which can collapse anytime. All the bath water and washing water goes to the foundation of the building. No draining. It's a very risky place I'm staying and with likelihood of collapse any moment. 

Not only that, the outstanding NEPA bill I later discovered for the whole house is currently over N200,000. He refused to sort it out and we have been paying for the old bill which we never used, yet our light would trip off within 3 days even after paying a lot of money, up to 15k or 20k at times, because of the outstanding bill. 

For the drainage, which is my major concern, he kept delaying and giving excuses and promises for the past four months I packed in, but when he ran out of lies, he just told me yesterday on the phone that he will never do the drainage. And during inspection, this kind of thing is not possible to detect it because it's not possible for you to bath and see whether water is flowing through the drainage during house inspection. 

He even boasted that he will never do it and that I should do my worst. Very wicked and irresponsible old man. 

Pls how can I report him to the Lagos State government? To avoid building collapse. To compel him to do it because of the safety of my life.

Pls help. Thanks.  .

Baawaa:
You better pack out

Nonexisting1:
Pack out when he has just paid 200k rent, are you normal?

GenAbacha:
Didn’t you inspect the house before moving in?

Oh well, once bitten, twice shy.

Richy4:


Haba!!! so what you are implying was that u inspected the drainage system where you were currently staying before u moved in?

GenAbacha:


So you plan to rent a house and you don’t see a drainage hole in the bathroom you’d be using and you’ll be fine?

Oh well. Na why una dey always fall for ponzi schemes.

No sense at all

Richy4:


You are just being unreasonable.... U are the type that act as if you have sense online but very far from it in reality... If someone has a bathroom, it is safe to conclude that there must be a channel for the water to go out... If the op did not see it, That was not his fault... no one can inspect every detail of a home in a day... especially if time is involved..
Stop that all tough and almighty Wiseman u were trying to portray about yourself because I'm not buying it ...

GenAbacha:


Your mumu dey smell.

Stay there and be talking rubbish. Don’t inspect your house na

Monogamy:
Hope you have found a new house before doing this

Adezworld:

You can report him to Lagos State Building Control Agency, but be prepared to move out of the building because it will either be marked for immediate demolition or will give him stipulated time to fix it.

LordJoffrey:
Sue the man for damages for your property and for specific performance for him to do the needed repairs

esthel:
Option available to you: Write the Attorney General of Lagos State,

Attention the Director, Directorate of Citizens Right.

Attention the Director, Citizens Mediation Centre

Those are two different directorates for issues like these.

Start from here.
