*"A tenant cannot dictate to landlord who to give his property to occupy as a tenant."*
*ADIMEGWU vs. BALA & ANOR.(2022)LPELR-57442(CA)*

*ISSUE: TENANCY/RECOVERY OF PREMISES-* Whether a sitting tenant is entitled to first option of renewal of his tenancy agreement with the landlord; Whether it is valid in law for a landlord let out his rented apartment to a prospective tenant wishing to pay higher rent than one paid by the current tenant(Issue is mine)

*PRINCIPLE:*
"Learned Counsel to the Appellant submitted that the desire to let the house to another tenant who was willing to pay higher rent is not one of the grounds legally recognized for recovery of premises. He argued that a landlord who seeks possession must establish one or more grounds recognized by law and once the factors are absent, the Court will not order yielding up of possession by the tenant. Learned Counsel to the Appellant submitted that the Respondents were obviously out to overreach the Plaintiff by wrestling possession from him for the sole purpose of renting same to another person and that the Landlord has not shown that he was acting in good faith.
In response, the learned Counsel to the Respondents argued that the Appellant was guilty of breach of covenants and holding over of rent which he said has occasioned hardship to the Respondents and his fellow tenants. He submitted that there is no denying the fact that the tenancy agreement provided for option to renew but on conditions to be fulfilled as reserved in the agreement, and that the Respondents have every right to recover possession from the Appellant as option to renew can only be granted to a tenant who performs his obligations.
There is no law that prevents a landlord from letting his property to a prospective tenant who is willing to pay higher rent if it is done within the confines of the law. Again, what the law enjoins him to do where there is a tenant in the premises he seeks to let to another tenant for whatever reason, is for the landlord to bring to an end the existing tenancy agreement between him (landlord) and the tenant occupying the premises, in accordance with the tenancy agreement and as stipulated by law. A tenant cannot dictate to landlord who to give his property to occupy as a tenant.” *Per IGE, JCA.*
