Actress Cossy Orjiakor’s Tenant beat her to a pulp

Nollywood Actress, Cossy Orjiakor’s tenant, Chimezie Mba, who threatened to beat her up finally fulfilled his promise and resisted arrest.

Cossy had raised an alarm on social media after one of her tenants who she claimed refused to renew his rent, allegedly threatened to beat her up.

Cossy who had earlier revealed she has houses in Lekki, part of Lagos state shared a photo of the tenant, detailing how his last payment was last month and he has refused to do the needful.

She said upon confrontation, he threatened to beat her up so she was forced to raise an alarm so that should the matters go South, we know who to hold responsible.

In the latest update, Cossy took to her Instagram page to share videos and narrate how he finally beat her to stupor and she had to keep quiet about it because “someone she respects begged her to”.

According to Cossy,

“He promised to beat me up….. well he actually did. Tramadol gives people wings….Now he promise to kill me, he had a knife on him. ……….I kept quite because someone I respect begged me to. Now you claim to have packed out from the Airbnb type of monthly apartment. why is the door still locked. 

I Am going to court of Mediation on Monday and it gets worse from here. All I want is for my apartment to be opened…. 1 Had management. But some male tenants just like wahala. Especially the jobless ones . I will not rent to unmarried hardworking ladies.”

Netizens who were quick to react berated the actress, with the opinion that there’s no smoke without fire. See some reactions below:

Another follower wrote, “I don’t judge one sided story, we need to hear from the man side before we conclude.”

Peterarmandboyo wrote, “This is unacceptable. Please take precautions and stay safe. Airbnb can step in too. No matter the circumstances violence is not acceptable”.

“Why do you deal directly with your tenants? Why not handover the house to a competent lawyer. The tenant pays the fee of the lawyer (I think about 10%)” another wrote.
