@POLITICSNGR

Heavy confusion has engulfed the Lagos state house of assembly after lawyers opposed a public hearing on the amendment to the Land Use Charge act.

PoliticsNGR gathered that the chairman of the Ikeja branch of the Nigerian bar association, NBA, Adeshina Ogunlana opposed the holding of the public hearing on the basis that stakeholders had no access to the amendment.

Ogunlana and a group of lawyers called for an extension of the hearing to allow stakeholders read through the document, understand it and make contributions.

This did not go down well with Bayo Oshinnowo, the chairman of the 6-member Ad-hoc committee on the proposed amendment, who stated that there was no basis for the postponement.

Speaker of the house, Mudashiru Obasa supported Oshinow's stance adding that issue was not enough to call for postponement.

This angered Ogunlana and his group of lawyers who then stormed out the assembly to hold a protest outside its premises.

Wow!

So the so called revised Land Use Charge has NOT been GAZETTED and LASG has already sent out bills!
Illegality and impunity redefined.


So when did it effectively become a law abi Lagos Lawmakers do not know how law making works again?

Lagosians (all who live and hustle in Lagos) might as well line up at Bourdillon and pay the money.




I don't know what this man has on you all! embarassed cry

Ambode is ready to sell Lagosians to Tinubu (Alphabeta) because of second term

So because we massively voted APC they now believe we are YES MEN. How can someone be considered part of a process when he has no access to the facts? How can he make viable contributions to a process which will bind him eventually? APC is just a party of dimwits and scoundrels. This LUC issue is what it is - Lagosians have officially been acknowledged as the ATM for Tinubu and his niggas grin

How does APC expect stakeholders to discuss a document that they have not seen
Ayam not understanding!
Abracadabra is the game of APC. The more you look, the less you see.
APC is a demonic gathering of propagandists.

If you think this obnoxious law doesn't affect you because you don't own land or you ain't a landlord then, you are of all men the most miserable.

The people to bear the true brunt of this repressive, money-sucker tool called Law are the POOR.


When your Landlord gets the outrageously high bill, he simply shares it among the tenants and it is still you struggle to survive on your meager salary or income that will pay for it.

Nigerians, wake up from your foolishness and slumber!!

There is no basis, I repeat, there is no basis whatsoever, to introduce this Law in Lagos state. You buy your land, get necessary documentations, build your house and own it.

It is only some lazy bones that are conniving with the Lagos state government to deprive the poor masses their hard earned money PERIOD!!

The collection of Land Use Charge from landlords by Lagos state government is a scam that must be stopped. Or else other states in Nigeria will emulate Lagos state and have the courage to collect land use charge as well.

Our public servants are not interested in transparency.
Even APC and Buhari that is pretending to be fighting corruption can’t provide details of their budget. Everything is bojuboju, hide and seek under them.
How can you fight corruption without transparency

Are you very sure of that? I hope you are aware that landlords will be adding the extra cost to ordinary tenants like me and
you.

Are the house of assembly members representing the good people of Lagos state or their selfish interests ? Taxation and it's attendant development is good but it should be done properly and with a human face
Re: Lawyers Storm Out Of Hearing On Land Use Charge In Lagos by chinedu234(m): 2:01pm On Mar 27, 2018
Why do we suffer ourselves so much with arguments. It is simply time to stop the personal enterprise and dynasty of Lagos. Even if they pretend to bow to pressure and soft pedal today,it does not obliterate the real motive which is primitive accumulation of wealth and political dominance. Some of us made the mistake of thinking that these people were different. But today we know better and our belief is that there has to be a change in Lagos. Please guard your pvcs well.

Re: Lawyers Storm Out Of Hearing On Land Use Charge In Lagos by Sctests: 2:19pm On Mar 27, 2018
The only way to stop that obnoxious Land use charge is to get Ambode and Tinubu out of government.

With the pressure on ground Ambode will backpedal to deceive you in order to save his 2nd term ambition, if Ambode wins 2nd term, LAGOSIANS WILL CRY BLOOD. HE WILL DEMOLISH THE HOUSES OF ALL THOSE WHO PLAYED A PART IN THE PROTEST against the LUC.

Even if you have your C of O, you will not get a dime from Ambode. 4,000 houses have been marked for demolition in lagos now and after 2015 elections and many of the owners will be deceived to vote Ambode again and then cry blood.

Vote out Ambode and save your land and houses. A word is enough for Lagosians.
