Mixed Reactions Trail Lagos New Land Use Charge Law | Posted by BREAKING NEWS on MARCH 7, 2018 |

The President of the Nigeria Employer Consultative Forum (NECA), Mr. Larry E. Ettah, at a press conference, said, “The recent amendment of the land use charge law is a classic case of insensitivity, alienation and gross disregard of the current state of wellbeing of both corporate entities and residents.”

NECA hinted that the organised private sector (OPS) would do everything legal and legitimate; including social resistance, to challenge this “unfair and unjustifiable law.”

Also an anonymous resident said, “I have just received the land use charge notification for this year; it has gone up 450 per cent. I have looked at the basis for calculation and not only has the percentage rate increased from 0.394 to 0.761000, they have valued the house far in excess of its market value to maximise revenue,” the resident said.

“Who hikes taxes by 450 per cent with 11 days’ notice? To compound matters there’s a threat of penalty payments ranging from 125 per cent to 200 per cent of this bill if payment isn’t made between April and August. How on earth can we continue like this?” the resident asked.

According to the Coalition of Real Estate Investors and Surveyors in Lagos State, after its thorough analysis of the LUCL 2018, Owners-Occupiers are expected to pay a token percentage of 0.076 per cent of the value of the assessed property. https://breaking.com.ng/nigerianews2017/mixed-reactions-trail-lagos-new-land-use-charge-law/

Na true word you talk. Na from our side dem dey first start all their nonsense! Ambode's cabinet is filled with bloody liars! They saw that the news of their nefarious plans to increase vehicle registration fees leaked, so they decided to postpone the increase. I dare them to go ahead with the increase, and see how Nigerians shuttle en masse to Ogun state next door, to register their vehicles without stress!

The protesters forgot to add that Ambode increased land surveying charges from 80,000 naira per plot to almost 700,000 naira per plot, last year!

In just one year he has increased the following charges:

1). Land surveying fees

2). Lekki toll gate fees

3). Water rates by Lagos State Water Corporation

4). Borehole charges

5). Land Use Charges

6). Court filing charges at Lagos State high courts

And I hear he also increased Radio/TV license fees, too. Na only im waka come? The greatest insult they added to our injury, was when his Commissioner of Finance Akinyemi Ashade lied that they consulted widely and severally with the public, before increasing LUC. Guess who they consulted with? House of Reps members. Those were the people they consulted with. Ask Asade if they know the last time the House of Reps members visited their constituencies, or held any dialogue with them. Ask Ashade if the House of Reps members will be the ones to pay the LUC fees, on behalf of their constituents.

The lousy joker in the House of Reps who represents my area in Lekki has gone missing in action for over 2 years. Nobody even knows what he looks like. And that is the clown that Ambode's commissioner is claiming he consulted. _mtcheew!
