Good afternoon, Nairalanders…

There’s a piece of land my family just sold out but one of the four sole administrators didn’t sign and the family agreed to return the money but the buyer and agent don’t want to accept the money. One of my family (an uncle) member among the sole administrators gave the agents the deed of agreement cos he was the one that negotiated the transaction.
Now they said they have the deeds and have spent some money and it’s their own. And also, since the head of the family signed nobody is important anymore.
The agents are threatening the only family member that didn’t sign. Their lawyer also is adamant claiming the land for his client.

How can we sort this out without going to court because of the long process at court. Their money is available and ready for refunds.

I’m open to your suggestions and opinions.

I’ll be waiting to answer your questions.

Thanks in anticipation all…

The person that didn't sign should go to court against those that bought the land.
Then, other family members will testify that they wanted to refund but buyer refused

Case will take years to settle, buyers gets tired and collects his refunds or keep going to court for 10 to 20yrs

For sure

What are his reasons for not signing? He should go to court alone.

The amount they sold the land was not worthy the value of the land. We just want this to be settled soon.
I’ve always heard if one member of the family refused to sign the deeds becomes inconclusive and nullity.
If there no other means to resolved without going to court.
This is happening in Lagos.
Thanks for your concern and I still want more insights

Take the matter to village court.

The amount they sound it and also she has been against the selling from the start.
The family held a meeting and they agreed not to fight each other because of property.

Which made they agreed not to sell again.
I don’t understand the buyer’s aggression and adamant
