A Nigerian tenant has exposed a shocking rent fraud, claiming that his building’s caretaker secretly inflated the rent from ₦500,000 to ₦1.3 million for three years. The revelation came after the landlord made an unexpected visit and was stunned to hear what tenants had been paying.
The tenant, identified as @Drweloveu on X, said the landlord was completely unaware of the extra charges. According to him, the landlord confirmed that he only received ₦500,000 per flat and never approved the higher amount. He has since promised to correct the rent and deal with the caretaker.
The tenant is now seeking legal advice on how to recover the ₦2.4 million he overpaid over three years. The story has sparked outrage online, with many calling for justice and legal action against the caretaker.
