But the land grabbers are hiding under that cover: because the state is not the owner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe original land owners are the owners of their lands. Hiding under that cover, that is why you see governors enriching their friends, as a form of political patronage. If you don\u2019t belong to their parties, you can\u2019t get allocation. It is land grabbing. Call it any other name, it is land grabbing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost states will acquire land, they said it is a public land. Before you know it, they will divide those lands among themselves. If you look at all the governors in this country, they put land under their ministry. If a governor is serious, and he is truly interested in the development of their state, will he have time for administering land? He would have left the professionals to do it themselves.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\"><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThey all put land under their ministry. So where there is a new site, they will first of all look at the site, grab some good choicy plots for his would-be political friends and ask the land allocators to allocate the rest. So, the land grabbers are the governors themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to look at the Land Use Act again and remove it from the constitution so that we can re-enact a good land law. There is no way we can do it, we must allow the original land owners to own their lands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf there is true privatisation, must government regulate land? It is contradictory. The Land Use Act is not serving any useful purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also in his words, the NIESV President, Mr Emma Wike, called on the Federal Government to review the Land Use Act to address the issue of land grabbing in the country.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\"><\/div>\n<p>Wike said the act of land grabbing in the country was becoming alarming, adding that the trend called for immediate intervention before it got out of control.<\/p>\n<p>Wike, who was represented by the former Chairman of NIESV in Lagos, Mr Stephen Ola Jagun, advised Nigerians to approach professional estate valuers and surveyors when trying to buy landed property instead of acquiring it from agents.<\/p>\n<p>The President stressed that proper administration of land across the country would end land grabbing.<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, Ogun Chairman of NIESV, Wale Ojo said the event was organised to assess the effectiveness of land administration in the country and how the institute can provide solutions to issues surrounding landed property.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn Ogun, we are very close to Lagos State. We are the next investment destination. All things are happening on land, all of us must be involved on how land are being used or managed. Government itself makes money from land.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\"><\/div>\n<p>\u201cTo the Ogun State Government, using online means alone may not be effective at the moment for land application and administration. Ogun should set up desk officers in different locations,\u201d Ojo advised.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governors in Nigeria have been described as land grabbers in their respective states.
