Don’t buy any land marketed as “Excision in Process”. It’s a Scam. Lagos State is no longer issuing Excisions.   Too many real estate companies are out there selling lands to unsuspecting buyers using “Excision in Process” as the document they have to sell their lands. This is very dangerous.   Rather Lagos State now grants personal government land allocation to individuals or companies who intend to purchase lands in bulk once you apply for it.   All Excision surveys and files that were being processed during Amode’s time have been stopped by Sanwo-olu. No Excision would be processed at…

Mr Babatunde then decided to contact me to conduct a background check on the property and C of O. My…

Property buyers especially in Lekki, Elegushi, Agungi, Ajah, the Eti-Osa Environs and parts of Ibeju Lekki should be very wary before buying a property that has a Governor’s Consent because most of these Governor’s Consents have been questionably acquired at the land registry.     This is because falsified and forged survey plans have been presented by the Owners to the land registry to register. Due to the lax and porous process of obtaining a Governor’s consent at the land registry, dubious owners have perfected the art of presenting forged survey plans that are outside the original location of the…
