Should The Government Change The Land Law? by Chrisvicmall: 3:44pm On Aug 21, 2012
In most development countries, the government control most of the land. The Real Estate companies bought the land and build houses which they will sell/rent to individuals. This reduces crime and hatred since there won't be much land problem between families, brothers/sisters, etc or "My House fine pass Yours" problems.

Besides the government can design and develop the environment in a more suitable. There will be wider road network which is completely built by the government. This can also give job to most people that are into design and construction field.

Take a look at most Nigeria cities,towns,etc today, everyone build houses that suit their taste.If you look at the whole area, it gives the environment a sour. The worst thing is that the road in front of the house won't be touch since the landlord believes it is the government duty which when their is heavy rain, it affects everyone around the area.

My question is, Do you support the government to control the land system?

The Nigerian land use system is the single biggest hindrance to the orderly development of this country!!
It has to be changed for any meaningful development to take place in the country.

J12: In Nigeria, the government also controls the land, so what exactly fo you mean?
How many lands have they control so far? Most of the lands in Nigeria are owned by individuals. Compare that to developed nations, it is like 80% land are owned and developed by their government while in Nigeria, 80% are owned and develop by individuals which is too bad for environmental beautification. Why in the world should someone build a house and wait for the government to build the road in front of his house? How many Nigeria landlord understand the use of flowers to decorate the environment?
