Blueprint for Land Tenure Reform: Atiku Camp Unveils Vision to Transform Nigeria's Land Administration

The camp of former Vice President and 2027 presidential hopeful, Atiku Abubakar, has outlined a comprehensive blueprint aimed at overhauling Nigeria's land administration system as part of its proposed governance agenda.

According to the policy outline shared by Hon. Ibrahim A. Umar (IAU), the proposed reform seeks to make land ownership in Nigeria more secure, transparent, and accessible, allowing millions of citizens to unlock the economic value of their land for wealth creation, investment, and national development.

The proposed reforms also emphasize unlocking the economic potential of land by enabling individuals, farmers, and businesses to use legally documented property as collateral for affordable bank loans.

The proposal further calls for legal and institutional reforms aimed at strengthening property rights, improving land governance, and harmonizing customary and statutory land ownership systems. Advocates believe these measures would boost investor confidence and create a more reliable framework for land administration nationwide.
