Candid advice: approach so many lawyers and let them give you legal advice on how to go about it. Select the best out of the advice and kick the stubborn tenant out of your house. Some lawyers will advice you wrongly so that they can give mealing on you. Pls be careful with some of these gluttonous lawyers. They will even make the matter worse... The dirtier the matter , the better for the dubious lawyers.... 3 Likes |

WAECMATHEMATICS: Make use of a senior police officer like dpo or dco to invite and talk to him.Tell police to give him 2-3 more months in addition to what he has used.but condition your mind to 6 months and notify the police when he exceeded the time,it will now be their regular routine to remind him through warnings etc. I assure you it never fails Is he paying his electric bills or it's prepaid It was Fashola administration that tenants became empowered without consideration for property owners. 2 Likes |

Wrong advice, if you do that you have giving him edge over you before the court of law. The mistake was to take him to the mediation center, they don't have the power by law to evict anyone. Their Job is to establish Peaceful environment between two parties if their is conflicts like this and also help to create smooth transition. The best solution to this problem is to dialogue with him and see what the problem is or you simply take him to court. If you like give him 10yrs notice, your notice is not substantial before the court of law and also not enough for you to evict anyone. Gandollaar: 1 Like |

I disagree with you in this because a Yoruba pastor (family man for that matter) tried doing it with us, but i believe, he ended up with regrets from what he saw; upon their endured dirtiness and lies. Stop generalising. There are good and bad people everywhere. hustla: 1 Like |

WAECMATHEMATICS:Firstly, I wish to congratulate you for not falling into your tenant's trap. He would have just claimed you destroyed something his livelihood depends on or you stole a 45 million His office gave to him. There is a due process under the law and I will explain it to you now. Rent court is faster in these cases than magistrate as magistrate court handles all types of cases. So, go to your local govt office to asked for the location of the rent court and liase with any court clerk there. For rent court, I am not sure but I believe you don't need a lawyer to file your cade but to be sure, the clerk will out you through. If a lawyer is required, they can also give you a lawyer's contact. If it is magistrate court, you will be needing a lawyer and the rest of the process is about the same. For an owing tenant, you didn't even need to give a six months quit notice only the seven days notice. However, some states like in my Oyo state requires a one month quit notice before the seven days quit notice. Either way, you've more than compensated for it with the six months and then the seven days notices. Now you go to court. (Had to explain this much due to other readers). Your lawyer or you (if rent court) files the case and a court notice is sent to the tenant. If he is seen, whether he accepts the notice or not, as long as the bailiff tells him and throws down the paper or gives it to him, it is as good as served and he has no excuse whatsoever as long as the bailiff lays eyes on him. The process at court is Mention, hearing, judgement. The other parts could be skipped if he accepts to actually owing on the first day and sometimes the judge could just wrap everything up and deliver judgement right away saving everyone time. The judge would never say he must move instantly but will still give him time to move but the good thing is the judge will will acceed to your prayers. Prayers in court terms means request. While discussing with your lawyer, list it all. It should include That he leaves, That he pays up all outstanding rent covering all the period he is owing till now (the 10 months) That he pays all potential rent from now till when court asks him to leave (called mense profits) That he pays for the court case (the son of a wonderful creature of God has to be taught a lesson) Now the court might not grant the last one unless you prove you indeed had enough patience with him (in my case, the female judge said she didn't want to lay too much financial burden on her being a student. I've seen another judgement where it was approved). A statement from the resolution centre and/or copies of those quit notices will nail his coffin. The court will certainly ask him to move as well as pay all monies till he leaves. It might take time but you will have your wish done. The lady I got a court judgement against packed out and even locked the door but we kept pasting all notices on her door. When she knew we did not break the door open and falling into her trap, she came back to open it herself after a week. The court processes still went on till judgement was made even in her absence. What if he does not leave even after the judgement was said to his ears or posted on his door and he does not leave? You still go back to court and the court gives you a registrar and police escort to evict him and also a garnishee order to his banh to have the money transferred to you. (Thank God for BVN). As long as he makes money in this Nigeria, you will have your money back. Just find his account details and he is toast. There is a process and the law works.

Re: Our Tenant Refuses To Vacate Our Apartment After About 10 Months Quit Notice! by nobilie: 12:27pm On Dec 20, 2019 |
Sometimes, i don't pity this Lagos landlords. You take high rent plus crazy agreement and commission fee as well as deposit for damages. When issue comes, you give same tenant only six months to vacate the apartment. That alone is wickedness. Note, tenants dont get back their deposits for damages ooo. Where a tenant pays a minimum of N450k for rent, 80k for agreement and 80k for commission then 50k for deposit (thats half the rent oo). Mind you, if you removed the roof and that tenant takes the landlord to court, the landlord will pay damages to the tenant who will now only leave when he can. There is only an exception, which is when the contract is elaborate enough to cover conditions of termination which should still be in agreement with the state tenancy law. My advice, the meditation center is a waste of time. File case in the court early enough. It is even robbery to collect money for agreement and commission esp without a lawyer. Rubbish |

Go to the police station, to make a statement and request a few police men to accompany you to eject the tenant... whatever happens you have credible witnesses (police) incase he wants to lie about missing property ... have someone video everything... also make sure none of his property is damaged during the ejection 1 Like |
