In a heartbreaking incident shared on social media, a Nigerian man known as @Letter_to_Jack has revealed that he found six of his puppies dead after refusing to pack out of his apartment when his landlady asked him to.
According to the man, he had a Rottweiler which gave birth to eight puppies, but the dogs were causing nuisance in the compound.
The landlady reportedly gave the man a quit notice two weeks before his rent expired, insisting that he must leave when it expired.
However, the man requested for three months’ notice, which is the standard practice, so that he could find another place to live.
When the landlady refused to comply, the man decided to call her bluff and refused to pack out of the apartment while telling her to bring the lawyer that drafted the eviction notice.
Unfortunately, when the man went out one morning and returned in the evening, he found that six of his puppies had been poisoned to death.
He had earlier sold two out of the eight, so it was only the remaining six puppies that died in one day.
In his words;
“I moved to a new house in 2017, told the Landlady (wife of landlord, husband abroad) that I have a dog (Rot) and I’d be moving in with her, but she shouldn’t worry, she is always caged and she agreed.
Few months later, My dog “fell” pregnant and later, gave birth. The puppies (they are a menace) were problematic, I admit. I barricaded my personal veranda for them to have roaming space, the dog-mom remained in the cage.
LandLady gave me quit notice two weeks to the expiration of my rent. I said fine, I understand, I’d leave but you know by law this was supposed to come with 3 months notice.
Give me 3 months to look for a new place. I’ll pay for the 3 months. She said no, I had to leave when my rent expires. I called her bluff, asked her to go and bring the lawyer who served the notice. I went out one morning, came back in the evening to meet 6 dead puppies on the floor (sold 2 of 8).Apparently someone poisoned them. There were a total of 10 flats in the house, no one to point to. I couldn’t cry.”
