What do you believe is the single most important factor driving up the cost of living in Nigeria?

In a bid to ease access to land services remotely, the government, through the Ministry of Lands, has unveiled an online land information search portal to be rolled out countrywide.

The launch of the e-land services ceremony was officiated by State Minister for Lands Sam Mayanja at Wakiso Ministerial Zonal office on October 2.

Speaking at the event, Mr Mayanja said the government will use the portal to easily identify the rightful landowners so as to reduce land conflicts in the country.

He noted that the portal will help government to track information on land such as multiple titling, placing caveats and transactions.

“Registered users shall have fast access to accurate information on the ownership, encumbrances, and location of land,” he said, noting that the exercise will limit interfacing with the Lands ministry officials, a process that will eliminate the corruption tendencies that have been reported widely.
