I want to get an accommodation, I contacted an agent who showed me through a house. The house wasn't to my taste. But I decided to take it and put it in my taste. I talked to the landlord about it and he told me to do whatever I want, that he doesn't have money to do anything in the house. I reached a consensus with him to be removing the money I expended on the house small small from my next rent.
At first the house had a well, though neat. I decided to talk to other neighbors I met in the compound on the possibility of getting a pumping machine, which we eventually did.
Furthermore, I also tiled the rooms, bathroom and the kitchen. It was only the living room that was tiled prior to my arrival.
I finished the work, painted the house and moved in.

I have stayed in the house for 3years now and my landlord just passed away. The children have retained the services of a lawyer to manage the apartment. The lawyer wrote a letter to me to vacate the building.
I informed the lawyer that I'm willing to continue my tenancy and work with the children or anybody they willed the building to. But he insisted that I have to leave, that they want to make a personal use of the property.
I then asked for a refund of the money I used to renovate the property.
The lawyer is asking me to bring a written agreement I executed with the dead landlord.


Lawyer pls help me.🙏🏾

First and foremost the law is that a tenant can not claim entitlement or compensation in respect of any improvement, unless he executed on a property without first obtaining a written consent of the Landlord.
Now for you to claim compensation or a refund of your money do you have a written agreement executed by both of you? Is any of your landlord's children, or family members aqare of the consensus. And did he admit to be in the know?
If the response to the above is in the affirmative, then congratulations to you but if not.
You have done free sacrifice like that.

*Stop making costly renovations that you know you can not overlook in another man's building.
And besides, they can even sue you for damaging their house if you're not careful.
Ultimately, learn to consult your lawyer before taking some moves. Not after the deed is done. It will save you a whole lot of hassles.

You are a submissive wife, down to everything but you are also a woman with her own money. You took a loan from your place of work and gave your husband to use it to buy a house where you can erect a building for your family.
You both agreed that the deed of sale which is the purchase agreement of both of you bear both names.
Now your husband has gotten the land and did the land sales agreement with the name Mr. and Mrs.
On sighting the agreement, you objected to it immediately based on the things you've heard about it.
You asked him to redo it with both names fully spelt out. He has done so and now he has brought another agreement to read SARO instead SHARON which is your name.
You objected as well and told him to correct it. Now he said, his lawyer said a deed of sale for a landed property cannot be corrected more than twice based on the peculiarities of landed property. Your husband is telling you that it's no big deal. Since the Surname there is correct and you are his only wife.


Lawyer pls help. Is it true

I sensed a heightened level of conspiracy against you o, you might need to look around for a saro somewhere but I am not a carrier of bad news.

Inform your husband that you have consulted with your lawyer and below are her comments:

It is a fundamental thing, SARO and SHARON are two different names. That are not the same. It connotes two different people.
And it is not a difficult thing for a lawyer to correct, though you will need to top up his money. And you will need to meet your vendors to explain things and execute the new conveyancy agreement. That is, if you are yet to register the transfer at the land registry.

But if it is registered already.
Your lawyer will after completing the step above need to do a Rectification.

A Deed Rectification is the legal instrument used to correct mistakes in any Deed Document, ensuring they reflect the accurate intentions of the parties involved. Anything land transaction is governed by a deed. He will perfect that at the lands registry of uour state or local government.
You will need to pay a visit or have your lawyer write a letter to the lands ministry to confirm that the change has been duely effected. Cos, ordinary editing the document without rectifying it at the Land Registry/Ministry of Lands, will be detrimental to you at the end. Don't bother about the the extra cost that will incure. Do it for your peace of mind. Don't even drag it with your husband or lawyer, so that you don't keep dragging irrelevant stiffs at the detriment of other pressing stuffs.

Let them know of your intentions to confirm the rectification at the Ministry of land yourself, so that it will give them nudge to do the proper things. And no lawyer will want to get involved in any illegal activity that can be easily uncovered.

That you deal with everybody with an open mind, does not mean they mean well for you like that.
Matthew 10:16b - be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

It is good to be a supportive partner but support wisely and legally, protect all interest cos tomorrow is uncertain.

These are women of influence with no display of breast or sensitive places.
Just display of grace, excellence, intelligence and leadership and positive vibes.
And you, the Internet is blackmailing you that until you go n**e of semi n**e you will not be relevant?
This is a sign for you.
Excellence, intelligence, integrity and hardwork is not gender specific. Keep pushing and you will hit it in a way that surpass your imagination.

The fact that you've not met the right people who appreciate people genuinely does not invalidate being good.
Be good, somehow you will later attract people like who will appreciate you genuinely.

Funmi and her husband had issues, it's true that every couple had their moments of conflict, but Funmi's own is always different. Any time she has issues with her husband, her husband will always fling her things out while creating a scene to attract all those in their street.
He has the attitude of wanting people to beg him before he will allow her and their 6 month old baby stay in the compound but they will sleep outside the building. He will not allow them to have access to the house, though he does permit them to bath and change clothes. But will throw them out before leaving for work. This will persist till his anger subsidized, in 2years marriage he has thrown her things outside 4 times and the least she has had to sleep outside in the cold is 2weeks.
Now she's a 6 month old baby, and the husband could still do this. This is beyond her wildest imagination. She wants help, she loves her husband but wants this madness to stop.She will be seeing this. See legal insight in comment.

Under the Nigerian law, if a woman goes to have extra marital affair with another man and has a child while the marriage is still pending/still living with her husband under the same roof. The concubine CANNOT lay claim to the child. The court will be reluctant to declare that the child belongs to the concubine unless cohabitation has ceased with the parties. The challenge is that the husband/father will have a hard time swallowing the bitter pill that the children he has carried in his heart for a long time is not actually his biological child/children.
So most likely he's going to turn cruel to the children and as a means of escape from cruelty the child/children will look for/accept their biological father.

For the woman, though the act is totally condemnable, yet it's not a license to kill her and turn yourself in for trouble. Having a child for another man during the pendency of a valid marriage is a ground for divorce. Cause no other way substantiate adultery more than this.
So as a man you can approach the court to end the marriage if you don't have a place for forgiveness in your heart for her.
Now in this instant case, where the man gave her options to choose from. And she goes for the marriage against the child. The man can no longer come under the defence of adultery. It will be deduced that he has condoned it.

Mr Osagie always beat up his wife of 18 years. He believes he is a traditional man, and his wife is his child. He believes one of the ways to command respect and asset masculine power of his woman is to beat her up anytime she tries to talk back. He believes in his culture, a child is not permitted to talk back at the parents. Children should always take instructions and not question intentions or rationale behind orders.
Mrs Osagie has endured for the past 18years. To her it's a way of life already, but recently start to get worried.

She opted to go and stay in her father's house where they still have free rooms where she can have her separate room to herself and the children also can have their separate room.
Mr Osagie still went as far as going to beat her up in her father's house. Right in the presence of her parents. She can no longer take it.
Though she DOESN'T want a divorce but she wants the husband to stop beating her.
What should she do?

So here's Mr. Peter who is a low cadre officer with the state govt. He has 6 children to fend for. This leaves him with a family of 8 in this economy. Ewo!
The Amount he expend on feeding alone is alarming. He ends up borrowing and buying on credit to sustain the family from the mid of the Month to the end of the month. Mr Peter is always struggling to make ends meet.
It wasn't that he didn't try family planning but family planning disappointed him twice. The children's school is already asking him for second term School fees when he has not even paid for the 1st term. He now has called Mrs peters to let them wise up and regulate their standard of living, amidst other things he has proposed changing the children school to a public school to safe school embarrassment. But Mrs peters would have non of it. She's insisting neighbors would laugh at and mock them. Mr Peter is trying hard to persuade his wife but she's not seeing things from his angle. She's threatening Mr. Peters with all manner of things her mind can conceive. Mrs Peter is of the opinion that her husband is a man, and as a man you should be able to do anything to raise more money and do all your family want.
They need legal advice.

I saw this circulating recently, I don't know if it is an authentic document or just the imagination of men. If it is authentic. I only hope the institution follows every necessary due process by crossing their 't's and dotting theirs 'i's. And I hope they do not breach any fundamental rights in the process, which can turn around and nullify the decision.
As for the lady the chances that she's into high substance and does drugs are very high.
A sane person will not behave in such a manner. Even the agberos that does do so after getting high with a substance. There's absolutely no justification for that unruly behavior.
And for the lawyer that wrote that statement for her. He is only working for his money.

Mr Nonso just closed the sales of his house to Mr Chidubem. Though Nonso still has legal tenants. He did not see the need to inform any of his tenants that he would be selling off his house, he thought if worst come to the worst, he would rather pay the tenants off their existing rents and move on.
He is one with the belief of secrecy, that if he dares tell them, he might not be able to sell off the house in time and at a good price.
Now the house has been sold and power has changed house. What should be done?

No landlord has the right to remove a tenant's roof, lock them out, cut their light or cut their water supply.
