Ex-APC Presidential Aspirant Evicted From Rented Apartment, Lardlord Gives Reason
A former All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential aspirant in the 2023 elections, Tunde Omosebi, has been evicted from his Abuja residence following a protracted dispute over unpaid rent and a breach of his lease agreement.
The eviction was carried out on Friday, November 15, by a court enforcement team, accompanied by police officers, at his property in a highbrow area of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
According to Vanguard, the landlord of the property, who spoke anonymously, revealed that Omosebi’s tenancy had expired over four years ago. Despite repeated efforts to resolve the issue amicably, Omosebi reportedly failed to pay rent and refused to vacate the premises.
“My patience ran out after years of unpaid rent and a constant refusal to leave the property. We tried to resolve the matter amicably, but after several attempts, we had no choice but to take legal action,” the landlord explained.
The landlord further clarified that the tenancy was meant to last for a fixed period, but Omosebi overstayed the agreement, leading to an eventual breach of contract.
In 2022, Omosebi responded to the landlord’s complaints in a letter dated June 30, which indicated his intention to terminate the lease due to what he described as “irreconcilable differences” over the landlord’s breach of the agreement.
The letter that Omosebi sent to the landlord also expressed his desire not to renew the lease agreement, serving as a formal notice to vacate.
“Due to irreconcilable differences on your breach of agreements, we opt out of renewing our lease. This letter serves as notice to vacate your property within the allowable period,” Omosebi stated in the letter.
However, despite the letter, Omosebi did not vacate the property. The landlord was forced to take the matter to court to seek an eviction order.
According to the landlord, Omosebi claimed ownership of the property but never appeared in court to defend his position, leading to a final court judgment in the landlord’s favour.
