The Lodger Eviction Notice is a crucial legal document used in Nigerian property management when a property owner needs to terminate a lodger's residence rights. It serves as the formal first step in the legal process of requiring a lodger to vacate the premises. This document must comply with the Recovery of Premises Act and relevant state-specific legislation in Nigeria, ensuring proper notice periods are given and legal requirements are met. The notice is typically used in situations where the lodger has breached terms of their stay, failed to pay rent, or when the property owner requires the space for other purposes. It contains all necessary legal elements including party details, property information, vacation timeline, and specific requirements for property handover. The document's format and content are designed to be legally enforceable in Nigerian courts if further legal action becomes necessary.
