Ishilove: Ignorance if the law is not an excuse.some time don't always believe what u read online.Make out time and visit a lawyer or a court. The law says 6 months for a yearly tenant.After that if he didn't leave u give him 7 days for recovery.if he still fail then the court will summon him . You have no right to eject anyone even if he is oweing u 200 yrs. If u do it forcefully,u are going to pay the tenant damages. He will put up a claim that will make u faint over night. If he claims he has 2m in his room that day of forceful eviction,guy u go pay am finish. Let him follow the court proceedings till end 1 Like |

Don't do any silly thing behind the court of law since the case is already in court so as not to blame yourself. Get a good lawyer, A civil matter involving a tenant cannot continue to linger on like this with adjournment. Take the matter to a higher court on other charges , get a sound lawyer, and pursue the case to Al logical conclusion. Insist you need speedy judgement in this case. She tenant cannot continue to use your house foe set3 years when you have not violated such tenants. Let me tech you one dirty trick. Withdraw the case from court and take the tenant to judge funmi or file a criminal case on the tenant for trying to take over your property by using it and not paying you and even treating you after staying for 3 yrs without paying. Attempt treat to life and destroying your property. Pray that the court should not only eject him but also collect money for 2 and half years for you. Lastly appear to the tenant in his dream 2 Likes |

SocialJustice: Do u know if the tenant have a good lawyer too that can run the PR too? Everything is not gra gra. Settle the differences with the tenant so he will leave in peace Tenants have rights in Nigeria too dont forget. Check if u had any issues with him cos I see this as a pay back |

[quote author=Ishilove post=103799801] After six months you should have tossed him out like a stubborn goat with the help of the Nigerian Police instead of taking him to court [/quote Go read the new Police act. They don't involve in anything tenancy now. 1 Like |

On a calm day, build a wall in from of the doors and close up the windows with cement blocks from outside while filming the renovation. Then create a small pit latrine at the entrance. Let's see him/her try to destroy your property. 2 Likes |

True life story.......one landlord in Kano state had this exact problem after giving tenant quit notice for over 3yrs he didn't leave the tenant was busy bragging to neighbors that there's no way that gentle ote landlord would evict him. The landlord apparently wasn't someone who liked trouble so most times the tenants take him for a fool cause of his quiet nature. To cut the story short on a fateful Sunday morning he drove out of town to a forbidden place and came back with just 2 lepers ![]() ![]() Naso tenant stand outside dey look landlord for upstairs Baba just dey read paper like say nothing dey happen ![]() Bottom line you see those gentle people when they decide to fvck you up they usually have very wiçked ideas. OP I suggest you get lepers and bring them to the aparte ![]() ![]() 7 Likes 1 Share |

Juicewrld27: It's a terrible advice. It's a civil case not criminal case. He just need to let the court handle it. Even if it's 5yrs the court make pronouncement, all the outstanding rent and bills will be paid up. If he likes, let him run away, the moment he's found, the court will arrange for all his properties to be auctioned to pay you up. And at which point, he may smell the inside of the prison for absconding with your money. 2 Likes |

Ohyinyeah: Yes, I sense that this is what is happening in your case. The lawyer is likely playing a double standard game. Change him immediately. It shouldn't take this long for court to evict him even if he is not coming to court. |

one of my edo friends normally laugh whenever he hears that landlords in lagos are having a hard time ejecting defaulting tenants. he said at their family rental house in benin, if any tenant refuse to leave they quietly leave the person, very early the next morning two big pots would be ontop firewood cooking in his sitting room and two of the most devilish dwarfs he ever seen would be there beating drums and chanting evil spells. most defaulting tenants are so scared that they run and leave their property sef 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Ohyinyeah: Jeez ![]() 3yrs without paying house rent? How possible. Our people just dey act anyhow. They no born you well to stay just one month in Germany without paying rent. Infact, in most cases, you don't need to pay. Every month, the money leaves your account fiaaaam. If money no dey your account, you also pay charges for not having money in your account before the deduction ![]() If you still no pay, the landlord will simply submit your name to Shofa... That is the beginning of your nemesis. It's just like someone submitting your name to Ogun or Amadioha shrine... You pay the landlord, pay for Shofa, your debt record will be dented and will remain dented for years and you can't buy any property installmentally again. Incase, you ignore Shofa, bigger problem. That is when they will arrive with their truck and empty your house and still take you to court. And remember, you still have to pay damages for all the months spent without paying. Nobody gives you the privilege to pay house rent yearly. No. You pay monthly, and if you do anyhow, you see anyhow. The kind of leniency we enjoy in Nigeria is out of this world 6 Likes |

Sorry, so incase anyone else is going through this predicament with defaulting Tenants, do these: - Serve a notice to quit (6 months if a yearly Tenant, 3 months if a 6-monthly Tenant). - At expiration, serve 7 days notice to repossess property. - At expiration, take evidence and head to a court and file for eviction, with the following prayers: 1. All rents owed plus interest at a certain percentage. 2. All future rents through the duration of the court process plus interest at a certain percentage. 3. Accelerated hearing, with or without the Tenant or their representative. 4. All legal fee incurred by you during the process. 5. A Court's garnishee to take from the tenant to pay you, either by auctioning their properties or access their Bank throughout Nigeria via BVN. 6. Claim All claimable. - Then, do some PR to the Court's Clerk to push your file up, and prepare a Court's Bailiff early enough. - Secure the Court's order to access the apartment and confiscate the tenants belongings, by the Court's Bailiff and accompanied by a Police Office. I bet you, all your monies would be recovered, to the last kobo, but PLEASE DO NOT take laws into your hands. 3 Likes |

Hellonearth007: Only in a shit hole country will one negotiate with a tenant occupying a place with no valid lease agreement in effect, Trust me I have an idea what this guy is going through from personal experience. You hired a Lawyer once they know you don't reside in that country then the piece of Sh*t lawyer gets compromised. They bribe the lawyer with some pittance amount of money. A lawyer once told me the eviction process takes up to 3 years in that country. Imagine 3 years to evict a tenant with 2 years lapse on an expired lease agreement. Don't even think of going to the Police, those are the pits of the world useless like a dead nail. In a sane country once your lease has expired guess what you have lost all privilege to even enter the property without the property owner's consent. Kindly explain to me what right a tenant has once the lease agreement has expired. Like I said earlier only in a sh*t hole country. Upon expiration of your lease, the next stop is the county Sheriff that will show up to execute the eviction 2 weeks after the lease has expired. 2 Likes |
