A Nigerian woman has made a desperate plea for assistance after her new landlady locked her room due to an unpaid 1,500 NEPA (electricity) bill, shortly after moving into the apartment.

In a recently shared video, the young lady approaches her landlady in an attempt to address the issue.
Despite her explanation that she hasn’t even used electricity yet due to the lack of connection, the landlady remains resolute in demanding payment, suggesting that future electricity usage is anticipated.

The landlady insists on keeping the room locked until the 1,500 naira bill is settled, directing the tenant to find alternative sleeping arrangements until then.

This incident has sparked reactions from concerned individuals, highlighting the challenges many people are facing and the abuse of power in certain situations. People are expressing empathy and calling for understanding in these trying times.
