Man rejoices as landlord reduces his rent
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a man had celebrated online after his landlord reduced his rent for seven months.
The Kenyan tenant, Kenneth Owuor, shared a copy of a rent review letter his landlord identified as John Mwedwa had given him.
In the letter, the landlord said he'd reduce tenants' monthly rents for 7 months from May to December.
John cited the prevailing high cost of living as his reason for taking such an action.
