Since you currently may not have a 'registered title' now, you'll need to get a survey plan of the land registered at the office of the Surveyor General, with beacon numbers showing, then hand the survey plan to your architect to prepare a drawing.

If it's a bungalow, you don't need a structural drawing, but for two floor building, you need a structural drawing.

You also need a soil test report. This is to tell you the kind of foundation you need.

Take all these documents to the LASPPPA office in your Local Government. They would prepare an assessment for you.

Assessment is done based on the gross floor area of your proposed building.

Less say your gross floor area is 300sqm, this size is multiplied by a rate of construction to arrive at assessed value.

The value in the assessment is what you'll pay.

You pay one to LASPPPA and another one to LABSCA called stage certification.

The part that out most developers is the tax clearance.

The minimum tax that LIRS will demand from any developer even in Ikorodu, Epe, Alagbado etc is ₦750,000 and if it's like Ikoyi, Lekki, VI, the developer can be asked to pay as much as ₦5million as tax clearance before you can be granted approval.

To LIRS, anything that makes you want to build means you must be rich. Hence, they ask for minimum of ₦750,000 from you, even if your land cost you ₦100,000

Give or take, the minimum to pay would be close to ₦1million.

How long does it take? It can take between 30 days to almost forever.

This is Nigeria, I must not talk too much
Thank you, anything outside what this gentleman wrote is story, you forgot to add all land the charges etc. When I try to explain in my previous post I don’t want to scared people away from taking steps to start the process, that why I used the term minimum of 200k. All those fees do not include brown envelope for Oga to get it done fast ooo, otherwise your file may be there for 2 years or more

That's why more than 50% of all buildings in Lagos doesn't have approval.

I had a meeting with Governor Ambode ìn 2017 and I told him point blank.

Audit all the over 2 million buildings in Lagos State today. More than half of that number are not approved, cos people got frustrated and abandoned the process.

Though, building without approval is illegal

Only the one that is caught will the law apply.

Not everyone is happy to pay such fees especially when the rates are on the high side and you will still have to do the road to your land and drag your own electricity to where you want it.


In Rivers State you get approval from the Local Government and the State Government before you build.

In Bayelsa State you pay and get approval to the State Government via the Physical Planning and Property Development Authority. The community via the Youth Leadership or CDC also comes to collect development fees. And the amount collected differs depending on type of build.

LOL... 50% is being humble, try over 70%!!! Its so unpatriotic to see how much the Government is leaving the the table. I once told Ogun State OPIC MD that if i was the Governor, i will give every single house in my state C of O. You know why? That will bring the owners into my Database. From there, i can charge and collect my land taxes with ease. Most people will pay their property tax if they are given CofO without wahala. They will be richer because they will be able to leverage their most value asset to improve their lives and the country at large.

But as usual, weyrey too much for we country!. we love to oppress ourselves for reason that is yet clear to me! its like we Nigerians just want that country to fail by all possible means. Its so sad when i think of the untap opportunities the country refused to take advantage

That's the problem with Nigeria sir. Simple things will be made difficult by both government and government agents. Too much levy for approval, a rigorous process as well.

Good stuff.

These are classy design especially for the Northern part of the country where I'm thinking of some 'chalets'. I assume the upper levels are good for terracing/sit-out purposes.

Definitely keep an eye on this.

I just zoomed the image and saw MPP&UD meaning it's the Ministry that did this and not LASPPPA or LABSCA. The commissioner and PS Control the ministry, while the GM of LASPPPA and GM of LABSCA report to both the PS and Commissioner.

The commissioner is the most senior, followed by the PS. But SA to Governor on Physical Planning is a senior to the Commissioner in terms of closeness to the Governor.

On why it's was sealed?

In my opinion

1. Building or built it without approval
2. Infractions ( when you submit a different plan, say 2 floors and you now go to 5 floors)
3. Failure to observe adequate set back
4. Failure to comply with Land use Zoning
5. Petition written against you by adjoining property owners
6. Building on road alignment
7. Building on right of way

One or all of the 6 reasons highlighted above could be the cause. After all, there's no curse without a cause grin

You’re very correct! It’s the Ministry.

Most people don’t even know their building can be sealed despite having approval.
