A neo-institutional economic critique of the system for allocating urban land and development rights in Nigeria
Land registration and security of land tenure
Land tenure security is an incentive for investing in land-based activities and, therefore, an impetus for economic development. In Ghana and the developing world as a whole, it is argued that land registration guarantees security of land tenure.

Using four case studies in Ghana, this paper investigates the extent to which land registration is the answer t…

The institution of land use planning in the cities of Nigeria significantly affects development. It is responsible for delays in securing land and development rights, affects plot sizes, and imposes unrealistic standards on housing development. No approach appears to have been developed so far to quantify these impacts systematically. Present methods rely on descriptive studies typically based on casual empiricism. A review of existing literature…
