Keep a roof over Zubby's head in Badagry
After a car accident, Zubby is 3 months behind on rent and has a termination letter from the landlord.
🇳🇬 Nigeria850 views
When my hours were cut in half in October, Zubby fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $300.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, the family must leave.
There are three school-aged children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Zubby has started working night deliveries, and is applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent.
Where the $300 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $25
• Utilities in arrears: $35
• Rent arrears (3 months): $240
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Badagry.
Good luck, Idowu. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better.
Hang in there. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Idowu. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. All the best.
