The Lagos State government has unveiled a new tenancy and rent law, aimed at regulating landlord-tenant relationships and rent practices across the state.
However, legal experts have warned that some provisions could spark fresh disputes over rent, particularly regarding rent increases, tenancy terms, and eviction processes.
The law is expected to have wide-reaching implications for both landlords and tenants, and residents are being advised to review the details carefully to understand their rights and obligations.
The government says the law seeks to modernize tenancy regulations and create a fairer system for all parties.
