Facts of the Case
Background
The National Social Security Authority owns four blocks of flats in Harare occupied by respondents under expired lease agreements. After granting options to purchase which respondents failed to exercise by payment, NSSA seeks eviction through summary judgment. The Supreme Court previously ruled respondents had no right to specific performance due to non-payment.
