The Kano State Government is cracking down on people who haven't updated their land papers. Alhaji AbdulJabbar Mohammed Umar, who works with land and city planning, made a big announcement about what will happen to people who haven't renewed their land certificates.
The government plans to print the names of people who haven't fixed their land papers in newspapers and put them up in important places like the state library, government offices, and the high court. This means everyone will know who hasn't followed the rules. People who ignore these warnings might lose their land completely under an old law from 1978.
The government worker explained that they've tried many times to tell people about the need to update their land certificates. They've talked about it lots of times, but many landowners just aren't listening. Because not many people are paying attention, the government is giving everyone another chance. They're offering an extra two months for people to come and fix their paperwork.
The ministry has already checked 241,025 pieces of land in two areas of Kano. They're still working on checking more areas like Tarauni, Dala, Kano Municipal, and Gwale. Anyone who doesn't want to lose their land needs to act fast and make sure their land papers are up to date. The message is clear: update your certificates or risk losing your land forever.
