Man raises concerns over landlady whom he dated years ago
In a post shared by Nwakego Nworie on the IGBO RANT HQ’s Facebook page, he lamented that her children also began to watch television in his place due to their mother’s frequent visits.
He added that she takes care of his household chores, brings him meals, and shows disapproval towards female visitors.
Struggling to establish boundaries, the man seeks advice on how to handle this situation.
In his words;
“After paying 2 years rent for an apartment I just got. I moved in and discovered my landlady is my ex-girlfriend. We dated for two years before we had a breakup. And her husband is abroad. I have no problem with her being my landlady.
“My problem is. She spends over 5 hours of her time in my apartment every day. Her kids now prefer watching their zee-world program in my own apartment as a result of their mum’s frequent stay in my apartment.
“She washes my dishes and does my laundry most time. I hardly cook because she brings me food morning, afternoon and night. She frowns at every female visitor that comes around me. The worst is she still calls me babe.
“The closeness is just too much for my liking and I don’t know how to end it. Each time I try to stop her from doing all that she would turn sober and I would just let it go. Pls I need your advice. I haven’t been here up to 3 months and I already paid for 2 years.”

Man cries out as landlord pursues him from house
Meanwhile, Legit reported that a Nigerian man has narrated how a landlord chased him out of his apartment after six months. The man, identified on Twitter as @folastag said the painful part is that he used his money to renovate the house.
According to him, he moved into the apartment after spending millions to put it to his taste. He was surprised when the landlord suddenly slammed him with a quit notice without any good reason. The landlord claimed he wanted to put the house to family use, so he wanted it to be empty.

“I went through one of the worst experiences of my life between August 2022 and January 2023. After moving into a new space in February 2022, spending millions to renovate and set up the space. The Landlord issued a quit notice exactly 6 months after.”
