Here is an example of a rent increase letter in Nigeria: Dear [Name of Tenant], This letter is to inform you that your monthly rent will be increasing from [current rent amount] to [new rent amount] as of [date of rent increase]. The rent increase is necessary due to [reason for rent increase].

Under the provisions of the TPA, landlords are allowed to increase rents each year by 5% plus the applicable average increase in the cost of living in order to allow for inflation. There is a maximum increase of 10% allowed in any given year, thus the Act's provision is often referred to as a ?rent cap.?
Landlords must also give tenants sufficient warning before increasing rent. If the rent increase is less than 10%, landlords must provide notice 30 days before the increase can take effect. If the rent increase is more than 10%, the landlord must provide notice 90 days before it can take effect.
If you are not behind in your rent but the landlord wants you to move out, they must give you a written notice. Only a 30-day notice is required if all tenants have lived there less than a year. A 60-day notice is required if all tenants have lived there a year or longer.
