Properties / Re: Sudden One Month Quit Notice: Please We Need Advice On Solution by soulRanger(m): 11:09am On Jul 15, 2017
komols856:
Hello to my follow Naira landers, i know problem shared will find a solution.

We have been given 2 months impromptu quit notice from our landlord through his lawyer. And information gathered has it that they have secured court injunction to throw us and our properties out of the compound forcefully irrespective of Lagos state government tenancy law that demand 6 months prior notice before ejection of tenants after quit notice.

The house in question is a 3 bed flat, and 1 room and palour self-contain. A particular family was living in that house before, but they were transferred out of Lagos in 2014. after that, they then bring one of their church member that were having accommodation problem to come and live in the house and continue the renewal of house rent since the landlord was not living in that house, but the caretaker were notified of the new development and there was no problem as long the payment of the house rent is maintained. However, the new occupant cannot afford to pay for the flat alone, other tenant came in to share the flat and the house rent among them and there was no problem, some have lived and left the house to another place but before the go they will put their brothers to avoid paying agent and agreement fee.

There was no problem until recently when the caretaker came to befriend one of the tenants and things turn out against his expectation and consequently got angry and decided to punish all the tenants. He went ahead to rubbish us before the landlord and he then ask the landlord to issue us quit notice. the caretaker is the only one that the landlord knew before he relocate to Canada, and we have been paying house rent through the caretaker which in turn send the money to the landlord account since 2014 and it is presumed to be the one that rented the flat. The rent has always been paid in the name of the caretaker as the only occupant of the flat.

Now, we were notified of the quit notice last week which was addressed to the caretaker name based on what the caretaker asked the land to do. after the caretaker pasted the quit notice for us to see, we discover that it was back dated to reflect march 2017 to enable them claim in the court of law that the quit notice has been issued to us since march and that makes them to as well secure court injunction to eject us by force at the end of this July. we have been begging the landlord to at least give us like 3 months after July ending to enable us secure another accommodation, but the landlord refused, saying he don't know us and we have no tenancy agreement with him.

Please we need advice of what to do in this case and how to get a human right lawyer to defend us, because now we do not have money to urgently rent another house, neither do we have money to make case with the landlord. All we are asking for is more time to get money and rent another house since he said we should not pay again immediately after the expiration of our rent at the end of this July.

Please your suggestions and opinion is highly needed.
Thank you.

Bruv you can let the matter go to court...
The notice given to you is defective..
Concerning the issue of Subletting and Trespass: If it was stated in the initial agreement, with the first tenant, not to sublet, then the owner of the property has a right to evict you from his property. However, there is what is called "waiver of rights" which can be express (oral) or implied (conduct). The caretaker who is an agent of the landlord, being aware of the sublet refused to act and furthermore, received rents from the subtenant. He is deemed to have waived the right of the landlord to evict on "the ground of subletting". If he now goes to court seeking to evict on that same ground, an average standard lawyer knows that he can raise a defence on the ground of the equitable doctrine of estoppel..
My advice to you is that before the matter goes to court "properly" you start arranging yourself for a new apartment..So you can easily tell the court that you need just a little time to organise yourself and move out...

This piece of information should not be regarded as a professional advice.. Should you require a professional advice, you can contact a lawyer very close to you or you can reach me on oyedejitobi@gmail.com.
Cheers
