🛡️ Reclaiming Your Land And How Taiwo Salam & Co. Properties Ltd Can Help You Win Legally
⚠️ Understanding the Land Grabber Crisis in Oyo State
Land grabbing — locally known as “omo onile wahala” — has become a major challenge in Ibadan and surrounding parts of Oyo State. These land grabbers are unauthorized individuals or groups who forcefully seize land, intimidate rightful owners, or fraudulently sell property they do not legally own.
These illegal actions violate the Land Use Act and pose threats to lives, investments, and future development.
🧾 Common Tactics Used by Land Grabbers:
- Double Selling – Selling the same land to multiple buyers
- Forged Documents – Using fake survey plans or title papers
- Physical Force – Deploying thugs to harass or evict occupants
- Boundary Encroachment – Gradually shifting beacons into adjoining land
- Illegal Development – Starting construction without the landowner’s consent
✅ LEGAL WAYS TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST LAND GRABBERS
🔐 1. Secure Strong Legal Documentation
- C of O (Certificate of Occupancy)
- Governor’s Consent
- Registered Deed of Assignment
- Registered Survey Plan
Having properly executed and registered documents puts you in a position of legal strength.
⚖️ 2. Report to the Oyo State Task Force on Land Grabbing
Oyo State has an Anti-Land Grabbing Law (2016) backed by the Attorney General’s office.
You can file a formal petition at:
Office of the Attorney General & Commissioner for Justice
Ministry of Justice, Secretariat, Agodi, Ibadan.
They work with:
- Oyo State Land Bureau
- Security agencies
- Traditional councils and local governments
👮♂️ 3. Involve Law Enforcement & Legal Practitioners
- Report threats and invasion to the police
- File for injunctions to stop construction or occupation
- Take civil and criminal actions in Land/Property Courts
