Unfair Eviction After Major Renovations – Seeking Advice

I paid ₦2.7 million on December 20, 2025, including a ₦700 thousand agent fee, and was asked to wait until January 1 to move in. On that date, I moved into my one-room apartment. A company sub-lessor had originally used the building for its office. Just yesterday, I received a non-renewal notice. The company says it wants to convert the property back into office space. Before I moved in, they even left some desks in my unit. I’ve made extensive renovations: replaced windows and doors, installed burglar bars, added an insect-proof extension, laid German flooring, painted and more. This situation has caused me severe anxiety and depression. I need guidance on how to protect my investment and challenge this eviction.
