In Nigeria, how land is owned and used is complicated. There are different types of rules, both official and traditional, that decide who can use land. This study looks at how people owning land in Nigeria affects how it's used. By studying laws, history, and current problems, the study wants to find out what issues landowners and investors face. It gives ideas to fix these problems, like changing laws, using computers to keep records of land, making it easier to register land, making sure people can keep their land for a long time, helping people solve problems over land, teaching people about land, and building up communities. Doing these things can help Nigeria get more money invested, make the economy better, have fewer fights over land, give people more chances to borrow money, help the country grow in a way that doesn't hurt the environment, make things fairer for everyone, and make sure everyone knows what's happening with land.
