The lawyer never addressed the issue of C of O being issued by the FG. From my unlearned interpretation of the land use act of 1978, all land in each state is vested in the governors, who holds it in trust for the people, except a few exceptions like waterways, beach fronts and critical federal infrastructure.
Dont mind that unteachable fellow. There can be nothing like Federal C of O here.

Peter Obi owns the company. He's just using his brother as a front.

I don't know why Peter Obi tells kindergarten lies about.
an obvious case of money laundry.

Using his brother's and family as proxies to claim huge properties..
That's why he is crying more than bereaved.

He can then continue with his saint posture to the gullibles that he doesn't have properties in lagos or anywhere else while his family members control billions of looted state funds.

I can tel you for free what has happened here being familiar with a family land dispute involving Ibadan land registry.

1:The land was originally owned by a family and acquired by the federal govt at some point probably before independence or 1960-1970 and was used to house a high ranking federal civil servant.

2: Federal govt later sold the land to Mrs olorulogbon in 2003 in line with its monetisation program.

3: land scammers (possibly the or in conjunction with the original owners of the land or those knowing its history) in collusion with Ibadan land registry agents the sold the land to Obi his proxy in 2011.


Let me make it clear to all people. The Federal govt inefficient as they are keep meticulous records, they will never sell that for which they have no record of ownership. For the federal govt to sell land to someone it means they have the records of their legitimate ownership.

5: Obi bought the land from individuals using fake records in the ibadan land registry since the land was once under the jurisdiction of the western region headquartered in Ibadan. BTW this is also evidence for those who did not know that Ikeja was not part of Lagos until 1967 but the western region.

6. Ibadan land registry is notorious for land scams. I was shocked when I presented my father’s title documents registered at the Ibadan land registry only to find someone had another “valid” registered title for a larger plot of land that encapsuled buy fathers land.


Governors consent means nothing, Cof O also means nothing! They only matter if the land is uncontested. When a land is contested then the original ownership of the land is what matters, the chain of sale, who sold to whom and the whether who sold to you had ownership of the land when he sold to you.

I will bet on the person who bought her land from the federal govt!

Not about this particular case, but I want to correct a notion.

Not all land in Nigeria belongs to state governments. There are certain pieces of land that belong to and are the exclusive preserve of the Federal Government (that's why the FG could easily demolish some of the structures at Landmark).

Think of:

1) Areas close to water bodies

2) Certain federal estates and locations (eg FESTAC Town)

Etc.

https://www.arise.tv/federal-government-issues-60-day-ultimatum-to-c-of-o-title-owners-over-outstanding-debts/
i was going to write this as well

festac is under FHA federal housing authority

if the actual location of the land is provided, it should be easy to confirm whose jurisdiction it is under

I think this particular land is in Ikeja GRA and Ikeja GRA also has a lot of federal land (that was used for residences for senior government officials and inherited from the Colonial Government).

What case? You took a case without informing the other party? Judgement was even entered without the other party been aware
Says , Obi's ever-changing side of the story, but let me agree with you first on that, what is clear now is that Mrs Olohunlogbon has court documents that reveals the one sided Court judgement of 2024 naccording to you started in 2021 ! So why is Obi making it look as if it has political undertone without making his findings . Nobody should come and instigate anarchy and disunity in southwest abeg. Does this man even listen to advisers , that's even if he has one .

Oga, Land in the states is the prerogative of state governments under Nigerian Land Law. Specifically land is held in trust by the state governor.

If you want to dispute that, please kindly produce references.If you want to argue that there are places held by the FG, do let me know and I will listen carefully. You might want to argue for land by inland waterways or the coast for example. Just mention it and lets know where you are going.

Reading through that his broadcast on twitter, even if we put politics aside, it's pretty obvious that Obi is really a very terrible human being.

In one post, you whip up tribal sentiment, and then strongly discourage people from investing in Nigeria. A whole former presidential candidate for that matter!
he is a very awful human being, and the worst thing to happen yo nigerian politics since 1999..

After reading into him, I realized he is such a dirty politician that is willing to use any tactics to have his way while acting like he doesn't know what he is doing.

Are you minding those people, even ifbthw lawyers claim to be unaware,would Peters brother also claim that he has not being seeing the suit number written on the property all this while?

They are jokers
Look at what is written in the wall along with the suit number, it is possession taken 19-6-2025. It was not written all this while but on the date of execution.
Are you too young to know of what is called "jankara" in the legal field mainly done in a state? It was very popular few years ago, where legal process is commenced without service on the defendant. Plaintiffs even go as far as getting someone to act as the defendant in court. Those days a landlord will use jankara method to evict a tenant. His lawyer will get someone to appear as the tenant in court conceding or pleading guilty to all the charges, judgement is the given, the original tenant is unaware until the court bailiffs come to execute judgement.
Oga I understand it still happens in with land grabbers in parts of the state. Many years ago a lawyer that went to court for his matter while going through the schedule to confirm the date for his case saw the name of someone he knew listed in a suit. Since he had handled legal issues for the man previously, he decided to call the man to ask what case he had in court over his property. The man was shocked, saying he had no matter in court neither did he have anyone disputing his ownership of his property he had owned for over 30 years. Long and short was that the sons of the family that sold the land in the 70s got one of the siblings to claim he was not settled when their father sold the land, he then claimed to sue his brothers along with the owner of the property (arraingee levels). The did this codedly without service, all they will do is settle a bailiff, he goes to a house somewhere, post the service then takes pictures then they remove it and submit in court as evidence. The case then goes on in court without the defendant aware of what is happening. The court then sits assuming the defendant refused to appear in court to defend himself. Surmarry judgment is then given with all the uncontested prayers of the plaintiff granted.
The owner of the property will just see people come to execute a court oder.
Look at the judgement in this Obi's matter you will see the ladies name vs unknown person's, secondly you will see the case was filed and judgement gotten within 1 year or so.

Stop being dishonest na. The report stated that they have governor's consent.
Governor's consent is different from C of O.
is government supposed to go against court order when there was no counter suit going on or stay of execution?

All these ones you are saying is story. Why do you people don't ever want to learn and relearn?? You have been provided info that FG issues C of O for FG owned properties in Lagos. After which the beneficiaries goes to State govt to get the State C of O and you are still arguing.

There are many of such properties in VI, Ikoyi and Apapa. I have seen many of those FG issued C of Os. I even have 2 of such with me but can't post it because of privacy issues.
The fact that the FG does something does not make it legal. In Nigeria states and the FG engage in lots of illegalities, and only comes to light when someone takes the FG or state to court. Gani Fawehinmi has taken FG to court on many issues and won. Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, SAN took the Lagos State government to court over the environmental sanitation exercise which restricted freedom of movement as enshrined in our constitution, and won.

Once again, the Nigerian constitution and the Land use act of 1978, does not give FG the power over Land matters except in few exceptions. The president or ministers cannot give C of O in states, except Abuja of course. I am glad this case is coming up, and I hope this case is pursued beyond ownership of the disputed property, but resolve the issue of the legality of FG issuing C of O once and for all.

A person who cannot solve a problem without running from abroad to Abuja to Lagos with camera. i wish he was that active in solving his party and immediate family problems. No, he's only desperate to milk the gullible and selfishly say a new Nigeria is PO.



BTW, when Obi was governor, he unlawfully oppressed land owners using SARS. Watch below. Also, notice that that quoted X user is currently an Obi fan because of tribalism. Don't be gaslighted people.

author=agabusta post=135900704]Obi messed up trying to sensationalise and politicize this purely civil matter and its quite petty.

This is purely a land matter similar to millions of similar land matters all over the country and in different courts.

As usual with Nigerians in Land matters, once a party gets favourable judgement, the next thing is to rush to the land to remove roof or demolish. We have seen this countless times and there's nothing political about it.

Everyone familiar with Lagos land matter knows there's Federal government C of O, which was issued to those who bought FG properties in Lagos.

The owners of such properties are then expected to regularise with Lagos State Govt in line with the Land Use Act to obtain Lagos C of O.

Abeg you people should carry your land matter and documents to court and stop heating up the polity over your personal affairs.

So why did Obi now drag government into this , so technically the land matter don start as far back as 2021, because that was when the lawyer said the federal C of O was obtained

When Federal govt acquires a piece of Land, it is gazetted! At that point your ownership of the land must follow a trail from the federal govt! Anyone who later buys that land with no chain of sale that starts from the federal govt sale is wasting his time and throwing away his money. If Mrs olorunlogbon indeed bought the land from the Federal govt and has not sold it to anyone then rest assured the land belongs to her! Someone selling you land based on deed of assignment from Ibadan (western. Region) for land that had been an quired and occupied by the federal govt for over 4 decades before sale is clearly duping you! Western region ceased to exist in 1967 and Ibadan stopped being in charge of Ikeja land therefrom.

You should check your brain first if it comprehend what the lawyer said.

You are contracting yourself in the same paragraph. Federal government acquires property, from who? Who owns the land to begin with? Who does the FG acquires it from before it gazette it. If Mr Olorunlogbon bought the land from FG in 2021, who owned the land before then, the FG or Lagos State government?

The Land Use Act recognises that the Federal Government owns land.

LAND USE ACT 1978

49. Exemption with respect to Federal Government lands, etc.

(1) Nothing in this Act shall affect any title to land, whether developed or undevel-
oped, held by the Federal Government or any agency of the Federal Government at the
commencement of this Act and, accordingly, any such land shall continue to vest in the
Federal Government or the agency concerned.

(2) In this section, "agency" includes any statutory corporation or any other statutory
body (whether corporate or unincorporate) or any company wholly owned by the Federal
Government.
https://faolex.fao.org/docs/pdf/nig67625.pdf

There are also many other laws that allow the Federal Government to own land.
