I rented this apartment at ikorodu last year June 1st. It a room and parlor self contaim at 200k yearly. Early this year the caretaker who is also the agent in charge of the house on behalf of the landlord brought am increments notice letter to us the tenant. And increments of additional 50k of which Most of the tenant argued with him .
Fast-forward to today, this caretaker brought quit notice to all the tenant in the building.
What baffles and annoyed me in is what is stated in the quit notice, they backdated the date which the quit notice was issued to us to October 30th 2023, which is supposed to be today April 5th 2024. That we are to quit the house by this 30th of this month.

My rent is yet to expire as my rent is to be due on 1st of June 2024. Please lawyers and legal practitioners in the house advice me on which legal action I should take against this unscrupulous landlord. Attached is the copy of the quit notice and also my house rent receipt . Thank you very much and I will be reading your advice comments

Eiya sorry, I don't know why some people will just choose to be wicked

All of you in that compound should stand yr ground, no one leaves until there rent expires

Bro...First you should not have collected that quit notice ...since it was backdated from October 30th 2023..and you renting the place in June 1st...and also the law stated that you should be given 6 months to look for another apartment.

Normally your rent suppose to be due in May 1st and not June 1st...so by back dating the quit notice given to you ...they are directly telling you and anyone that you given the mandatory 6 month as stated by the law...so once you rent expire by May 1st...na wahala be dat...
They have evidence that you collected a notice dated 6 month ago and that is the evidence against you once your rent expire.

My opinion here is this ... you and some of the tenant should go to any local government secretarial in your area ...that have office of public complaints there..tender everything you got from your caretaker to them and they will take up the case for u.

I hope you collected a valid receipt when you paid and into the house.

If the above it correct, locate the state's ministry of justice, they will direct you to the housing section.

You will get justice without intimidation.


So sad to see the seal of the MBA on a supposed fraudulent quit notice.

Bro you are right I shouldn't have collected the quit notice given to me today since it was fraudulently backdated to October last year

But I have evidence against them, an increments notice was given to us early this year. If according to them they gave us quit notice since October last year, how come was increments was still issued

When I saw the seal, I shook my head in disgust.
