Can A Child Legally Own A Land In Nigeria? by Treash(m): 10:30am On Jun 04, 2020
By Section 7 of the Land Use Act, the child below 21 years cannot own a land in Nigeria. However, same law provides that you buy the land in the name of such child as a "trustee". This implies that, you can be in charge of the property on his behalf until he reaches majority and proper documentation will be done.
