The Kaduna State Geographic Information Service (KADGIS) has said‎ owners of land and property without titles will enjoy subsidy in obtaining titles under the Systematic Property Registration Programme (SPRP) in the state.

The Director General (DG) of KADGIS, Altine Jibril, said land owners would pay N5,000 (men) and N2,500  (women) under the programme.

Jibril ‎explained that with the launch of the programme, land and property holders could process and obtain titles on their property within 30 working days.

The DG said this at an event organised in the state by the Nigerian Institute of Estate Surveyors and Valuers (NIESV).

‎Jibril said, “With these reforms, the state was ranked the first in Nigeria in the 2018 World Bank Ease of Doing Business Index in terms of property registration. We strive to maintain this position through continued support and cooperation of professional bodies like NIESV.”

On the ongoing urban renewal project, she argued that it would make Kaduna a friendly home, a safe place to live in and that it would also promote the livelihoods of its citizens.

The Chairman of NIESV in the state, Bunmi Ogundiya, said the event was to enlighten the public on issues concerning NIESV.
