A proposed law in Lagos State is seeking to curb arbitrary evictions by landlords, making it illegal to remove tenants without first getting approval from a court. The move is aimed at protecting tenants from forceful or sudden evictions, especially cases where landlords resort to intimidation, lockouts, or self-help tactics.If passed, the law would ensure that all tenancy disputes are handled strictly through legal channels, giving tenants the right to due process and preventing abuses by property owners.
