The land use charge is a valid law in Lagos. Whoever owns a landed property in Lagos is under obligation to pay. Any non Yoruba that is not willing to pay should move his/her property out of Lagos. Nobody is forcing non Yoruba's to remain in Lagos compulsory.

This governor is not realistic. You can't enforce Yoruba language on every Lagosian, "it's a Yoruba city", and you turn around to enforce oncreased taxation on non-Yoruba citu dwellers. That's retarrrrdwd.

The following properties are now exempted from payment of Land Use Charge:

Property owned, occupied and registered in the name of the religious body and used exclusively as a place of worship or religious education;
Public cemeteries and burial grounds; unlike the 2001 law which applied to both public and private cemeteries;
All palaces of recognised Obas and Chiefs of Lagos State; unlike the 2001 law, such property will lose its exempt status if it is leased to private entities for revenue generation.
‘Family compounds’, once exempted under the 2001 law, are not on the exempted properties list

"The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Ikeja Branch, says its would march against the revised Land Use Charge on Tuesday March 13 if Governor Akinwunmi Ambode failed to reverse the “hell tax”.


Rather than go to court, lawyers want to "march" through the streets?

Granted it's great to be proud of your tribe and state especially if it's prosperous but read your comment again...it is absolutely senseless.

gani fawehimi would have taken him to court instead of engaging in circus protest.
They obviously want to exploit the people to bolster their war chest for one jagajaga to use on reclaiming waning influence.
I think it's high time we try another party in lagos. I had prematurely praised this administration of performance. fashola performed and he didn't overburden the people.
That's why we don't need public servants with godfathers. from 400% increase in land use charge to increase in cost of survey and toll fee without any value added service.

Nig4Greatness:
Those lawyers that suppose to be defending the government policies like this are the ones opposing them yet they criticise and compare their leaders with their counterparts abroad who use taxes paid by their citizens to develop their countries.
Besides,why is the NBA most pained by the way??.is it because some of them are now property agents instead of practising laws??...I don't just understand.

first it was the lekki toll, now land use charge, Tinubu the pupeteeer, well done


Developing Lagos into a Mega Smart City” to kill Lagosians with Pharaoic Taxes

Do you have a property in Lagos? Or you're just trying to be stupid for fun? Is it everything you see on Nairaland that you use in playing politics/tribal sentiments? Have you thought of the implications of this stupid step taken by the Lagos state govt? From the circular I got that was sent on social media, everyone who owns a duplex,would pay as much as 3m per year for tenement rate. How does it sound to you that someone would have a property and still pay so much like he or she is paying rent in a highbrow part of Lagos? At the end of the day when the tax burden is passed down to the people renting those properties and they cannot pay,they get evicted and become homeless. Can you just imagine the circle of commotion it would cause? The most annoying part is that most of you who support all these stupid policies of APC govt in Lagos and Nigeria, are usually the worst hit. I know somebody who almost fought me because he was supporting buhari in 2015. Today,hunger has dried him up and makes him look like an aids patient. When he wears his shirts, they look like parachute on him. If you see topics and you don't have any reasonable comments to post,just keep quiet and read comments, rather than making a fool of yourself.
