Hello, if you are paying for one year befor the six months quit notice is free you dont need to pay . If you are paying for six months befor you have three months free because is quit notice you have to use the six months and look for another hause . If you like the hause call the landlord and his lawyer talk face to face, if they don't want you to pack out any more ask the lawyer to give you letter for that .

You are a bad tenant. How in Gods name will you dare a landlord your father mate and his generation?

Notice period doesn't mean you won't pay. The law expects you to pay for the entire period of your tenancy

Dear Op, that quit notice can't be withdrawn orally, ask your landlord for another letter from his lawyer

Looks like this is misunderstood a lot. You have to pay for the 6months you stay in someone’s house, or 3 months, whatever. 6 months notice doesn’t mean you have to live free, the court will still ask you to pay after the case is concluded

Do what suits you, if he wants to withdraw the notice let his lawyer write you simple.

Bros! I have had almost same experience with Lagos Landlord. Please, don't fall for his trick. If you pay your rent annually, the 6 months notice is not to be paid for but for you to prepare your self and quit.

Good afternoon Nairalanders,


I got a quit notice in September (my rent expired 31-10-2019) and I am supposed to vacate the room and palour self contain by march 2019.

Today, my landlord called me and said why have I not come to make enquiry as to why I got the letter.

I told him I know the letter was from a genuine lawyer and I decided not bother in asking him why because I know why .

The reason is not far-fetched from the fact that I quarreled with him twice because of disconnected electricity supply for four days when I was not owing him. I actually fought with him for good two days. I dared him and his generation not to fix the light until I come back from office. The first I did, he didn't reconnect the light but he reconnected the second time .

The light was disconnected because some tenants who occupied other SCs didn't pay theirs. I actually told him to pay and disconnect others who have not paid because I am tired of this kind of monthly occurrence. Somebody like me pay very early. Then, he should have a way as a landlord of getting his money when he pays for everybody instead of every month disconnection.

To cut the story short, he said he has my type as son and there is no way such disagreement will not come to play. He said he didn't actually mean it that he was only threatening me. He said he asked for the letter to be written to me by his lawyer and then he has the right to withdraw the letter too. (I think he needs money and the man is thinking March ending is too long to get another rent for the SC)

He asked me when I am paying the rent. The rent is actually #140k but I told him I will try and credit him #100,000 first. When he dropped the call, I called my wife and explained what happened to her. She let me realize the man is trying to get the six month rent for the quit notice period of six months he gave us. She said we should not play into his hands. I actually remebered the man told me on phone that if I don't have the whole #140k now, I can pay half which is #70,000. This is where I discovered what my wife said might be true .

We are actually trying to leave the house before or by March ending as the notice read before this call.

I hope this man is not trying to play smart though I know we are to pay for the six months of the notice but I don't plan to give him until I am ready to pack.

Should I involve his lawyer because his contacts are written in the letter he gave me ?

Is my landlord real ? Is he trying to play smart to get money for the notice period early? Should I credit him the #100,000? What if he returns #30,000 and claim I only pay for the notice and he keeps dragging issue with me that the notice still hold? I can't afford to loose my #70,000 just like that because the money is for the new accommodation I am looking forward to get? Can I ask him to withdraw the letter first (may be in his wife and my wife presence )?

Lest I forget, my landlord extorts a lot. That's his hobby.
first you need to know that once you are given 6 months notice you don't pay any dime during the NOTICE period as yearly tenants by law. Your landlord wants to play smart on you because you don't know the tenancy law.
Re: My Landlord And I by Braimoh100(m): 8:01pm On Nov 16, 2019
Since u said ur Landlord extorts alot, I will advice u not to pay him until u are ready to leave the apartment. He might use your money to play bet9ja

Re: My Landlord And I by oddessey007(m): 8:03pm On Nov 16, 2019
Hi, I would advice you pay fully for a year if you like to live in the house, note that by paying the landlord a year rent nullify the Notice to quit, and please demand for your receipt immediately you pay him. Under the Lagos state tennancy law, once a rent is accepted by the Landlord for another year the quit notice becomes obsolete and null and void.
FYI, as a yearly tenant, You are only entitled to 90 days notice and not 6 months as you expected and afterwards 7 days notice of repossession of property. Your failure to comply might result to litigation.
I hope I made sense to you but the decision is yours to make.

Are you serious or are you joking? Who told you another mans property is free because you have been served a notice? Na war for these our people ooo. You better check because you will be committing conversion of someone else's property.
