Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Musa's family in Nsukka
A divorce left Musa short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.
🇳🇬 Nsukka, Enugu, Nigeria480 views
When my hours were cut in half in November, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, we must leave.
I have two young children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
I have started working weekend shifts, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $460
• Late fees and court costs: $15
• Utilities in arrears: $45
• First month of rent as a buffer: $80
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
