ReplyDeleteU sef did u read the story @ all??? Didn't u read the 1st paragraph where it was stated "his landlady"
DeleteIf your father is a landlord,I pray his tenant will come and slap him someday @ Sharon Aminu.
ReplyDeleteYou this wretched idiot.
The tenant is male. She was obviously referring to the tenant and not the landlady.

ReplyDeleteHmmmmmmmm slap kee what rubbish in this Lagos am a landlady if I hear that why it's always good to involve laws oo madam landlord sorry
ReplyDeleteThe recession has trippled some people's anger
ReplyDeleteThat is why alot of landlords don't take those eebohs in their house. Aggressive set of people. They will not only owe you but they will constitute a nuisance in your house. Bringing in their mother,brother,sister,cousin and all their generations in a self con. They will destroy the house to its foundation. My uncles house in ikeja GRA He used 3m just to renovate a bungalow. Iv never seen such destruction before.
ReplyDeleteHe has told the agent never to bring those ppl from that side again.
Very bad of him to slap 👋 his landlord, igbos with their stupidity
ReplyDeleteThats the problem with Igbo people.. Yoruba Landlords and landladies are hesitant in allowing Igbo tenants..Its very bad..I know what I went through getting my present accomodation..My Igbo brothers should stop this high handness..
ReplyDeleteigbo tenants are utterly annoying...always owing and taking case to court cos they know they wont pay rent till case is settled....the traders are even the worst...stingy goats
