PropertiesSystems Of Land Tenure In Nigeria by CotenantNIG(op): 6:14pm On Feb 22, 2021
In Nigeria, land tenure systems vary from villages, towns or cities. The thought behind land residency framework in Nigeria is to control land possession conduct in the country.

We're going to talk about the following:

Tenants at Government Will
A tenancy-at-will is a property tenure that can be terminated at any time by either the tenant or the owner/landlord. It exists without a contract or lease and usually does not specify the duration of a tenant’s rental or the exchange of payment. The agreement is governed by state law and the terms can vary by state, though federal law comes into play in cases of discrimination

Rent Tenure System
In the rental tenure system, the tenant shall pay a certain amount for the period of use of the land to the named landlord. The rental period is relatively short compared to the lease system. Although this system discourages long-term plans on the part of the tenant.

Gift Tenure System
Gift land ownership scheme in which land rights are freely granted to an individual by the owner. It may be used as a source for a loan from financial institutions by the new owner, although land ownership may be revoked by a court order.

Inheritance Tenure System
In inheritance tenure system, land ownership is transferred at the death of the main owner to the next of kin. This system provides for children yet unborn but sometimes land allocation may lead to conflicts among beneficiaries and other family members.

Communal land tenure system
Systems that combine individual/family rights to land and natural resources with group oversight and rules to keep land within the group• i.e. mixed regimes, comprising variable bundles of individual, family, sub-group and large group rights and duties

Be Careful before you buy any land always verify every landed Property in Nigeria

The Lagos State Lands Bureau has warned against fraudulent sales of government land, just as it stepped up efforts to address incidents of defrauding unsuspecting members of the public by Land Grabbers, known as ‘Omonile’.

The Permanent Secretary, Lands Bureau, Mr. Bode Agoro, disclosed this, on Tuesday, while speaking at a stakeholders forum organised by the Bureau as part of the multifaceted approaches to sensitise members of the public on the increasing rate of fraudulent land transactions across the State.

He urged members of the Real Estate Developers Association of Nigeria (REDAN), Community Leaders, Land Surveyors and other key players in the real estate sector to see the Land Grabbers menace as a common enemy to the growth of the Real Estate sector and efficient Land Resources management in Lagos.

Agoro said, “These Land Grabbers/Omonile have now taken their game to a new level as they have the audacity to erect signposts bearing Lagos State Government logo and excision application file numbers in their desperate attempt to deceive the prospective buyers into believing that sales of such lands are genuine transactions and have government backing”.

“This engagement is, therefore, crucial at this material time as we cannot afford to fold our arms while some dubious persons continue to take advantage of hardworking and responsible Lagosians by selling illegal lands to them”, he added.

He stated further that the Omonile syndrome had become a big monster plaguing investment in real estate development in Lagos State, maintaining that if not nipped in the bud, it would fester and continue to prevent many well-meaning corporate organisations from making investment decisions due to the confusion, anarchy and avoidable conflicts caused by Land Grabbers’ activities.

In his contribution, the Chairman of the Real Estate Development Association of Nigeria (Lagos State Chapter), Mr. Bamidele Onalaja said members of the Association are fully committed to working with the Lagos State Government to confront the challenge posed by Land Grabbers’ activities in the State.

Also speaking, the Co-Ordinator of the Lagos State Special Taskforce on Lands Grabbers, Mr. Owolabi Arole, noted that in order to drastically reduce incidents of land grabbing and encourage private developers, the Lagos State Properties Protection Law 2016, established a task force to enforce the provisions of the law and vested in it, power to arrest offenders.

Some of the communities where activities of Land Grabbers are most notorious in Lagos State are Okenla Village, Idake Village, Ajao Oki Village, Ladegbole Village, Imedu Village, Iratirin Village, Obadimisi Village, Shekina Alo Village, Fowoseje Village, Iraboko Village, Adamatiye Community, Ogunro Community and Sorogun Community – all in Ibeju-Lekki, as well as Ogombo Village in Eti-Osa and Oshiun Village in Kosofe, Lagos State.

That's all they do. Very lazy lots who will rather take pride in agbero business than work hard. Very soon the Igbos will buy up their remaining lands and they relocate to the lagoon. They will be using canoe to come out from the lagoon to collect their omo onile. Fools

Have you tried to buy land in some parts of Lagos and have been told to pay Omo-Onile Signing Fees Like this Below

https://pwanmax.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/OMONILE-FEES-480x630.jpeg

Who are Omo-Onile?
Omo onile  in Yoruba means “the child of the landowner.” Thus, an individual indigene of any specific Yoruba settlement may sell the portion of the family land appropriated to him or her.

The fear of Omo Onile is the beginning of wisdom for land developers in Lagos. Even with the best of education and your eyes wide open, you might discover that you have bought your land from ‘charlatans and impostors.’ The doctrine that governs the land market in Lagos is ‘buyers beware’. The multiple sale of land by branches of the same family is not generally considered a heinous crime but a minor side effect of African polygamy. In a house you built fifty years ago, you may one day find a fellow at your doorstep brandishing a paper called ‘court judgment’ that makes him the new owner of the land on which your property is built. The solution is ‘settlement’ that requires skillful bargaining. The possession of Certificate of Ownership is no defence in such matters.

In Some parts of Lagos, this is what you pay for

To put Foundation on the land N200,000
To collect the Deed of Assignment as proof of purchase of the land and receiving your money N200,000
To fence the property as a precaution against Land Fraudsters N150,000
To put a structure on it with Decking N200,000
To Construct a Roof on the property N160,000
Community Money for coming into their Village to buy a land N100,000

It's as if it's a crime to come to their place to buy land. I think our law is too weak to make these people to stop doing this nonsense all in the name of Omo-Onile

If you buy land at Elegushi, it's N2.5Million to just sign your document minus foundation and the rest of the nonsense they demand. In Badore, Olokonla, and areas controlled by the Olumegbon, it is N500,000 to sign your documents.

In Agungi, Osapa London, Chevron, and areas controlled by the Ojomu family, it's N1.5Million to sign your documents alone. Even those ones in the heart of Ibeju Lekki and Epe are beginning to copy their more illustrious counterparts to demand between N100,000 to N200,000 to buy land at Eleko or Free Trade Zone.

In Some part of Ikotun, Egbeda its almost N50,000

Some of such places is;

About Ibeno Beach

https://pwanmax.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ibeno-beach.jpg
Ibeno Beach stretches for about 30 kilometers from Ibeno to James Town along the Atlantic coastline of Akwa Ibom State in Nigeria. The Ibeno Beach is one of the beaches on the Atlantic Ocean along the shorelines of Ibeno. It is the longest sand beach in West Africa

Ibeno was the landing site for one of the most successful christian missions in Nigeria - the Qua Iboe christian mission from Scotland which arrived in the early 20th century. Relics of that missionary expedition also attract tourists to the area. In 2013, the federal government constructed the Ibeno bridge to attract tourists and improve other economic activities in the area.

The beach itself is a must see as it is the longest beach in Africa.

The beach has a bridge which was built by the federal government.With its beautiful coastline, Ibeno provides endless natural facilities for tourist, such as; Boat Riding, Canoeing,Water sport, Volley ball, Beach soccer, Archery, Sun bathing etc.

The whole stretch of Ibeno Beach is creatively and beautifully decorated for the enjoyment of the local people as well as the tourists.
https://pwanmax.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ibeno-Beach-Slide7.jpg
Adding to the natural beauty is a scenic coastline along with the natural white sand, which, to be honest, words cannot do justice to. Mere words cannot do justice while describing the beauty of the beach.

The beach is often patronised by visitors from southeastern, south south and north central part of Nigeria who desire to take time off their schedules and relax at Ibeno beach. In 2013, the Federal Government of Nigeria constructed and opened the Ibeno bridge as a move to attract tourist and improve other economic activities in the region.
