The Lagos State Government has charged allottees of State
lands, particularly those within Victoria Island, Ikoyi, Lekki 1 & 2 and
Abijo Residential Schemes, to take physical possession and develop the plots
allocated to them on or before December 14, 2015.
The Permanent Secretary, Lands Bureau, Mr. Bode Agoro,
who gave the directive on behalf of the State Government, stated that it (the
directive) is in line with the policy thrust of the Government in allocating lands
to citizens in residential schemes which is to assist them meet their desire of
building houses of their own.
He however advised the public to verify the status of any
landed property before consummating transaction and also obtain information
from the Office of the Surveyor-General as well as ensure proper validation of
Titles from the State Land Registry.
The Permanent Secretary stated that such steps would also
guard against practice whereby some individuals, families and communities
engage in illegal sale of government acquired land
