This was stated in a release by the Union's President, Mr. Toyin Ibrahim Igbo, and General Secretary, Mr. Olanrewaju Oluwa, and issued by the Union's Publicity Secretary, Engr. Kayode Ajayi, on Friday.

Lagos State indigenes residing in the United Kingdom, Ireland and other foreign lands have urged the state government under the leadership of Babajide Sanwo-Olu to adopt the England Property Law to favour the indigenous residents over others in the state.

This was stated in a release by the Union's President, Mr. Toyin Ibrahim Igbo, and General Secretary, Mr. Olanrewaju Oluwa, and issued by the Union's Publicity Secretary, Engr. Kayode Ajayi, on Friday.

The statement claimed that the domestication of English property law would lay to rest the lingering issue of “Lagos is a no man's land.”

According to the Union, an interest in land/real estate in England can be held under freehold or leasehold ownership, with the freehold being the highest category of ownership in England and Wales and, in most situations, virtually conferring absolute ownership.
Leasehold rights grant exclusive possession and use of land for a set length of time.

The statement reads, “A real estate owner in England can also give non-exclusive rights, known as easements, to third parties to use the land, such as granting a right of way. If correctly registered, easements are binding on any future owners of the property. The transfer of real estate to a purchaser must be recorded in writing on a form specified by HM Land Registry.

“Literally, land in Lagos State should be sold to an interested person or persons or group of persons as lease for a period of One Hundred (100) years after which the property is subject to review. With this law, indigenes will retain right of full ownership of the land in the state”, the Union said.

The union continued: “Lagos indigenes are selling their land to immigrants due to lack good jobs to cater for their families. Even where jobs are available, they are given to non-indigenes leaving the indigenes to sell their land or properties for survival or join the japa syndrome that have befall the country while others have become touts, miscreants and agberos.

“A situation where local government jobs are being given to non-indigenes is atrocious to the indigenous people of Lagos. The state civil service is full with non-indigenes as staff while indigenes roam the streets. If this continued, Lagos indigenes will be decimated in the state and they will not have a place to call their own in the near future.

Governor Sanwo-Olu and Lagos lawmakers should ensure the land and interest of Lagos indigenes are well protected”, the union added.

Oga we have a constitution which stipulates that every citizen has the right to live and own properties any where in Nigeria.
Just dey play.
Lazy set of people.
Make una continue dey sell una papa house with the grave come dey cry later.

anungangampu:
Stupid people.
The bloody truth this guys couldn't tell themselves is that most land sold in Lagos as of recently was not sold by indigenous Lagosians but by Yoroubas from other states. They make themselves Bale and enrich theirselves while the others are used as thugs.
The Yorouba Ronu of a thing is an insidious craft to stir the indegeenes against other Nigerians while enriching theirselves.
They actually bought the propaganda and that shows how poorly they think over there.

It's a good things for other Nigerians. Portharcout and Warri once had same law.

Is lagos a country like England?

I'm happy this is happening at a time like this. No more Trojan horses as in the case of France and the Arabs. Eko o ni baje o!

Validated:
I have 100 years leasehold on my Lagos properties. Before the expiration, Lagos would have become so cosmopolitan than noone will be talking of indigenes. We are talking of 2115 - 2120 when all these "our lagos peope" would have died and buried. My inheritors will do the needful by selling after 95 years and moved to better locations to invest the proceed. Infact those locations would have become slums like Akpomgbo areas of today.

The Yoruba Ronu of a thing is an insidious craft to stir the indigenes against other Nigerians while enriching themselves. This is the anger of governorship candidates like Jandor' and Gbadebo. The latter took his anger too far. Next election they will come with the same rhetoric once indigenous candidates appear on a ballot box, not in Apc.

They actually bought the propaganda and that shows how poorly they think over there.

Porthharcout and Warri had the same sentiment in the past.

Creeper:


Man, stfu, you old git.

What do you mean by “so-called indigenous scroungers”, you primitive cannibalistic monkey? You’re an utter disgrace to your children and you need to be flogged for the idiotic statement.

Most of you are poor and destitute but you keep running your filthy mouths and Twitter fingers. And you will definitely get what you’re begging/asking for one day. The ones that engage your stupid bigots aren’t the ones you should be worried about - the quiet ones who don’t say much are the ones you should fear.

redsun:


The fact is that your kind is unfit to be called humans that is why you are stuck in the past. You need to open up your ass-licking tribal mind to understand the meaning of a country, constitutions and laws.

I’ll slap all the teeth in your filthy mouth out of there, you pauper.

Watch what you post, you old fool.

Fear who?

Disgruntled and decimated mizcreants that are slavishly dependent of political hacks to exist? Chant your RONU nonsense to the high heavens and make sure implementation is swift. No need for useless rants.

Nobody buys that 'silent enforces' nonsense. If you want to chase them away, do that immediately and stop sponsoring useless groups to get validation.

All oil companies in ND must employ strictly people from N-Delta

All major companies that use Lagos as a base of operations , must relocate to their source of natural resource.

Even Air Peace will relocate it's head quarters to the SE and employ only IGBO personnel.

Look at a region dependent on taxation and foolish agbero empowerment, pulling chains that are weak

Niggaz are happy ..people need to see you pathetic things for whom you really are. Despicable..spits
