Dear NLanders,
Please I would like to get advice,as regards evicting a very stubborn and troublesome tenant. First, he's been on the property for 6years,but has not made a single payment since February 2012. I have tried severally to persuade,appease,appeal,confront him, both formally,and informally,i.e, I have given him quit notices of 6months, 3 months and even a month,all to no avail. He tells me categorically,that he has no money to pay,nor does he have where he can move to. I had the plumbing system to his apartment disconnected,he resolved to defecating within the premises.
Please,if anyone has a better idea of how this man could be evicted, please kindly share with the house.
Thanks

Do you have a wife like Mama Peace to do tha job?!

I'm learning from this thread. I also have a tenant who only paid for the 1st year and ever since then(3yrs now) it's been stories upon stories and pupils pay him per term. I went the legal way but nothing changes. Any reasonable advice plzzz

Nigeria is a sorry country where thing like this have no law backing the owner of the property. A lady has been living in my dads flat since 2013 and she has not paid a dime. She has been coming there once in a while and living with another man in another city in Lagos.

Another tenant is also owing over a year without paying a dime. Police, MOPOL, court got involved, yet nothing happens.

take him to court but prepare to forfeit the house rent if you have a good lawyer he will pay all his debt.

Kindly go garage and find some brutal agbero(s)

Thanks for that info,however,I do not need him to pay a dime out of what he owes,all I need is just having him vacate the apartment ASAP.

LooL. Thanks for the advice,but that would be tantamount to taking the laws into my hands,as those thugs/touts would most definitely act overzealously.
