Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 73922, member: 636"] The housing minister wants state governments to drop 1-3 percent of their yearly budgets on land admin and systematic titling because he thinks solid land governance is the main path to hitting a trillion-dollar economy. Ahmed Musa Dangiwa told the land directors conference that half the money needs to go straight into actual work, like digitization, surveys, and dispute resolution, instead of office furniture and cars. Nigeria bombed the World Bank property registration rankings because of endless red tape, slow processing times, and costs that scare off investors. The government launched the Land4Growth program to unlock around $300 billion in dead capital by getting land properly registered and titled across the country. The permanent secretary warned attendees that the conference can't just be another yearly chat session, and the real test is whether states actually implement reforms when they get back home. [/QUOTE]
