How to Verify a Landlord's Identity in Nigeria Before Paying

Keyda Security Team · Platform Safety16 February 20258 min read

You can verify any Nigerian landlord's identity before paying a kobo. Here are the official channels, tools, and what Keyda's TrueCheck covers.

Ask for NIN and cross-check name against agreement. For companies, request CAC documents and signatory authorization.

Visit when neighbours are around — ask if the person is known as owner or manager.

Keyda landlords complete NIN verification before listing — reduces impersonation risk.
