A Lagos landlord reportedly reduced his tenant’s rent by half after the man’s wife delivered twins via Cesarean section.
A barrister known on X as @Dammi_Esq shared the heartwarming story after her friend, who had recently welcomed the babies, reportedly called her crying.
According to the barrister, her friend called her early in the morning and was crying, which made her initially concerned that something had happened to the newborn twins.
She later discovered that the tears were allegedly caused by an unexpected gesture from the family’s landlord.
“My friend just welcomed twins through CS, and this morning she called me crying,” she wrote.
“I immediately thought something was wrong with the babies.”
The barrister stated that her friend told her that her landlord had sent her a letter informing her that their rent had been reduced by half.
“Turns out, her landlord had just sent her a letter reducing their rent by 50%,” she stated.
According to reports, she was so taken aback by the gesture that she requested a copy of the letter from her friend.
“I asked her to send me the letter because I honestly couldn’t believe it,” she wrote.
She also stated that she read the letter twice before accepting that the landlord had actually reduced the rent.
The barrister was surprised by the gesture, especially since the incident allegedly occurred in Lagos, where rent costs have become a major concern for many residents.
“I read it twice,” she stated.
“In Lagos? A landlord actually reducing rent because his tenant’s wife just gave birth to twins?”
“I don’t even know what to say.
“Are there really landlords like this, or is this a one-in-a-million kind of landlord?” she asked.
