Document background
The Sixty Day Notice To Quit is a fundamental document in Nigerian property law, used when a landlord wishes to terminate a tenancy agreement in accordance with the Recovery of Premises Act and state-specific tenancy laws. This notice is mandatory for certain types of tenancies and must be served properly to be legally effective. It provides a statutory 60-day period for the tenant to vacate the premises, protecting both landlord and tenant rights under Nigerian law. The document must include specific details about the property, parties involved, and the exact vacation date. It's particularly important in states like Lagos, where additional requirements may apply under local tenancy laws. The notice can be used for both residential and commercial properties, and proper documentation of its service is crucial for any subsequent legal proceedings.
