You dont need any approval beyond a C of O to own a street. Just buy all the land on the street an voila! You own the street.

OK on a serious note, you can not own the street the way you mean it. You can only have the street named after you or you can give the street any (reasonable) name that suits you.

Well, when we were little, we were told 'The first person to build a house in a street, gets the street named after him or her.' I've always believed the fable tho'

Sorry OP you can't own a street but you could have a street named after you.

The politics in having a street named after you is hectic, I am sure your local government can provide vital info and requirement.

Just keep some tips for the officials wink

It is first come first serve, Like seriously I think its whoever first build his house in that street, then the street is named after him.


But it might not be working like that anymore sha!

Local Government Councils are the ones in charge of Street Naming. Find out which Local Government Area the street falls into, approach them, pay the requisite fees, the street would be named according to your desire.

Get a letter of consent from the land owners authorising you as a known landlord in that area and you will humbly take that letter to the local government where the street is to be named and meet them at the housing and street unit for more clarification and form filling that's all sir.

To get a street named after you is simple. Like over here in Benin, my friend went to the Local Government council here (Oredo LGA) and pay for the name filing.

A team will be assigned to come and verify if possibly ask some people question in the area where you intend to name the street.

After the verification and all that, the street will be named after you.


I think it cost him close to 60k or so.

I can't perfectly recall.

You can't and you don't OWN a street.
You only have the street named after you and/or in your honour.
Big difference.
