Recall that the Federal government through the Housing Ministry was closely working with the World Bank to implement land reforms to unlock the potentials of Nigeria’s landed assets through the National Land Titling Registration and Documentation Programme (NLTRDP).
Similar workshop on National Land Registration and Documentation Programme (NLRDP), was held in March, 2025, in Abuja.
Recently, the Federal government suspended all land allocations and reclamation activities along the Lagos Lagoon shoreline, and a committe set up by the Minister of Housing, Dangiwa to ensure proper documentation, elimination of abuse, examine, and harmonise all approvals and developments along the shoreline.
The Housing Ministry is continuing to collaborate with the States’ governments to address the challenges in the areas of registration, documentation, and titling of all lands to unlock Nigeria’s dead capital, develop National Digital Land Information System, and formalizing land transactions.
Dr. Shuaib Belgore, the Permanent Secretary of the Housing Ministry will be leading a delegation of Directors and relevant officers of the ministry to the Workshop.
