Control Of Federal Land: Lagos Defeats FG In Supreme Court by DONSMITH123(m): 2:25pm On Jan 27, 2017
Ade Adesomoju, Abuja

The Supreme Court on Friday struck out a suit filed by the Federal Government seeking an order wresting the control and management of its land in Lagos State from the state government.

A five-man panel of the Supreme Court led by Justice Olabode Rhodes-Vivour, unanimously struck out the Federal Government’s suit after upholding the preliminary objection filed by the Lagos Government to challenge the competence of the suit.

Justice Dattijo Muhammad, who read the apex court’s lead ruling, agreed with the Lagos State Government that the court lacked the power to exercise its “original jurisdiction” in the suit because the Federal Government had “transferred its title in the land to others”.’

The dispute between the federal and Lagos State governments was about “general control and management of federal land within Lagos State particularly the re-issuance of certificates of occupancy, granting consent or exercising rights of ownership.”

This is eye opener to those who falsely believe if they buy land in Lagos they will one day own Lagos. Everytime FG take Lagos to court to claim rights it loses. Not a single claim of land ownership or rights of holding filed by FG has been won since this started back in the 70s. Even when Lagos was the seat of power and unfer military administration they lost the attempt to claim Lagos.

Another bad news for those seeking to islamize and dominate the entire country using the so called federal lands as back door in the south for the grazing fields.

The judiciary is perhaps the only thing keeping Nigerians from going on rampage and taking out Buhari's intransigence on the murderous herdsmen.

From the inability to read, comprehend, to be sane and rational to hate and bigotry over something that has nothing to do with the article and court judgment based on cases filed years before this administration is just pure insanity and madness.


What a sad shame and pathetic way to live, exist and relate..

Every inch of land in Lagos state belongs to the Lagos state government and COC is a lease certificate which can be terminated by the state anytime, any day.

This ruling needs further Clarification.

There are two types of C of O in Lagos.

Federal C of O (Ikoyi Land and Ikeja GRA etc)
Lagos C of O

Obtaining consent on Federal Lands or even registering a Survey is usually via the Federal Ministry, whilst that of Lagos is done via Alausa in Ikja.

What does this Judgement mean? That henceforth, any transaction on Federal Land should be consented by the State or What?

I need to read the matter in full
