whirlwind7: It is Legal. My Thinking is that the landlord does it to encourage the tenant to pay his next rent or with the aim of increasing it. |

anibo2: The landlord is under obligation like every other tenants to pay taxes such as Nepa bill. In such case the tenants can complain to the authority in charge of Nepa bill , so that ur landlord's light will be disconnected. But b4 u do anything ensure that you guys haven't ignorantly attest to pay for your landlord in the tenancy agreement . |

2. Inadequate notice to quit: The duration of time. Please be advised that you can actually give a yearly or bi-yearly or quarterly or monthly tenant just a MONTHS NOTICE TO QUIT and you will not be contravening any tenanncy law. How it works is that the Landlord will have to EXPRESSLY STATE IT IN THE TENANCY AGREEMENT that irrespective of how the tenant pays his rent, that the tenancy will be DETERMINED BY A MONTHS NOTICE. If a prospective tenant accepts and signs the tenancy agreement without any duress, then I see why a landlord cannot terminate such tenancy with a months notice. 2 Likes |

How about the tenancy agreement? Some landlords in conjunction with their lawyer-agents do put in clauses in the agreement, that do not augur well with the unsuspecting tenants. ![]() ![]() |

whirlwind7:. Actually the Landlord is right. A tenancy can be DETERMINED if the Landlord serves the tenant a quit notice six months before the expiration of the last rent paid. |

whirlwind7:According to the Lagos state tenancy law it is legal for an eviction notice to be given 6 months before the expiration of ones rent. the landlord in that case scenario is therefore right by giving out an eviction notice six months before the expiration of a tenancy. The landlord uses this to eject tenants out and jerk up rent prices follow @myniglawyer for more info |

Re: Legal Rights Of A Rent Tenants And Some Unlawful Acts Often Done By Landlords by wisdomguy4u(m): 1:44pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
whirlwind7: The issuance of 6months notice to quit can be in lieu of the outstanding yet to expire rent. A landlord is not under obligation to give a tenant reasons for his notice to quit as long as he issued him a lawful notice. So the landlord's action is legal and within the law. |

eagleeye2:sorry but putting such an agreement will still be void bearing the fact that it contravenes and disregards the provisions of the tenancy law. and the six months tenancy notice will still be binding. A mere agreement cannot supersede a law unless the law states otherwise 3 Likes |
