LANDLORD ARRESTED FOR REMOVING TENANT'S ROOF OVER UNPAID RENT IN PORT HARCOURT

Operatives of the Ozuoba Police Division have arrested Frimpong Samuel for allegedly removing the roof of his tenant, Tochukwu Anozie, along NTA Road, Port Harcourt.

Samuel reportedly took the action after Tochukwu failed to vacate the property two weeks after his rent expired. Speaking on the incident, the Spokesperson for the Rivers State Police Command, CSP Grace Iringe Koko, said the landlord will be arraigned in court upon completion of the investigation. Meanwhile, the tenant, Anozie, said his landlord served him a notice in December, asking him not to renew his rent. 

According to him, his landlord said he plans to renovate the apartment. Anozie explained that his rent was due to expire in January 2026. He explained that he appealed to the landlord for a 14-day grace period to enable him move into a new apartment he had already paid for. 

Anozie expressed shock that, before the expiration of the 14 days, his landlord came to the apartment with a carpenter and removed the roof. He claims the action exposed his properties to the rain, destroying several items, including his academic certificates. He is now calling for justice over the incident.
