Understanding the Governor’s Consent in Nigeria’s Land Transactions

Under the Land Use Act, every land in Nigeria belongs to the government. For private ownership, the Governor must give consent on any transfer or sale.

Why It Matters

  • Protects against multiple sales of the same land.

  • Confirms the legal transfer of title.

  • Increases land value and makes resale easier.

How to Get It

  1. Submit application at the state land registry.

  2. Attach deeds, survey plans, and tax clearance.

  3. Pay statutory fees.

  4. Await processing, which can take weeks or months.

Tip: Work with experienced property lawyers who understand the process in your state.
