According to the buyer of the house, the first
daughter of the landlord, a woman named Mrs.
Ololo had sold the house to him about 15 years
ago without the knowledge of her father. So
immediately the man died, he approached her to
claim ownership of the house. They even went to
court and he won the case. After winning the
case, he took police men to the property to take
possession rendering tenants who didn't even
know all these was going on, homeless...
One of the oldest tenants of the house said;
"Police and some other people stormed the
building around 10:00am on 2nd March,
2015". They said they are on court order to
evacuate tenants out of the house as the
house ownership has been transferred to
the buyer.
I have been living here since 1984 and in
fact the first receipt I received from the
landlord is still with me, the buyer just
showed up and threw us out without any
prior notice." he said
