Understanding Land Documents PART 3
SURVEY PLAN
A Survey plan is a document that measures the boundary of a parcel of land to give
an accurate measurement and description of that land. The people that handle
survey issues are Surveyors and they are regulated by the office of the Surveyor
general in Lagos as it relates to survey issues in Lagos. A survey plan must contain
the following information:
1. The name of the owner of the land surveyed
2. The Address or description of the land surveyed
3. The size of the land surveyed
4. The drawn out portion of the land survey and mapped out on the survey plan
document
5. The beacon numbers
6. The surveyor who drew up the survey plan and the date it was drawn up
7. A stamp showing the land is either free from Government acquisition or not
EXCISION
An Excision means basically taking a part from a whole and that part that has been
excised will be recorded and documented in the official government gazette of that
state. In other words, not having an excision means the land could be seized by the
Government anytime without compensating you even if you bought it “Legitimately”
from the Baale or the Original dwellers on the land.
GAZETTE
A Gazette is an Official record book where all special government details are spelt
out, detailed and recorded
A gazette will show the communities or villages that have been granted excision and the number of acres or hectares of land that the government has given to them. It is within those excised acres or hectares that the traditional family is entitled to sell its lands to the public and not anything outside those hectares of land given or excised
to them.
A Gazette is a very powerful instrument the community owns and can replace a Certificate of Occupancy to grant title to the Villagers. A community owning a
gazette can only sell lands to an individual within those lands that have been excised
to them and the community or family head of that land has the right to sign your
documents for you if you purchase lands within those excised acres or hectares of
land.
If the government based on some reasons best known to them decides to revoke or acquire your land, you will be entitled to compensation as long as it’s within the Excised lands given to that community.ad land to buy
The best way to know whether a land is under acquisition or has an excision that
has been covered by a Gazette is to get a surveyor to chart the site and take it to the surveyor general’s office

DEED OF ASSIGNMENTS
Most people have the title documents to their cars intact and in safe places but fail
to ask for the Deed of assignment to their properties which is several times more
valuable than cars
A Deed of assignment is one of the transactional document drawn up by a real
estate attorney between the current title holder for a particular property and the
new buyer.
In real property transactions, a deed of assignment is a legal document that
transfers the interest of the owner of that interest to the person to whom it is
assigned, the assignee. When ownership is transferred, the deed of assignment
shows the new legal owner of the property.
The deed contains very pertinent information for a real estate transaction. It spells
out the date when the ownership of the property transfers from one owner to the
other. The deed also gives a specific description of the property that is included in
the transfer of ownership.
It is very compulsory and mandatory for a Deed of Assignment document to be
recorded at the appropriate land registry to show legal evidence as to the exchange
of ownership in any land/landed property transaction in order to make the general
public and government aware of such exchange or transaction.
Any recorded Deed of Assignment at the appropriate land registry will be
authenticated in form of either a Governor’s consent or Registered Conveyance after
it has been stamped at the Stamp Duties office.
It is important to Note that the deed of assignment document is not the only
document indicating transfer of owner.
The following documents are usually involved when you a purchase is made.
1. The purchase receipt
2. The contract of sale and
3. The deed of assignment
4. The survey plan
5. The Building plan for housing investment
6. Any other title document that may apply
Each of these documents can come at separate times in the transaction process. The
seller signs all documents when the transaction is complete and hands over the
documents to the buyer

UNDERSTANDING LAND DOCUMENTS
Land Classification
Land can be classified as either free or acquired. A parcel of land is considered free
if the government has not indicated any interest whatsoever in that land. Such land
is safe to buy because the title on the land can be perfected without issues.
In most cases, such lands will either have a gazette, a C of O or a governor’s
consent.
Now that you understand what it means for land to be free, you should also know
that all lands that fall within areas that are designated as ‘urban areas’ are under
government acquisition until deemed committed or free.
There are two types of acquisition:
1. Committed Acquisition
2. Global / General Acquisition.Committed Acquisition
A parcel of land is said to be under committed acquisition when the government has
indicated an intention to use that land for a specific purpose such as provision of
amenities.
Such lands belong to the government and can never be available for use by
individuals. If you purchase land that is under committed acquisition, it will be
impossible for you to perfect your land title and you’ll only be occupying the land
until the government comes to kick you out.
Global or General Acquisition
Lands that are under “general acquisition” or “global acquisition” can later be
confirmed ‘free’ or ‘committed’ as the case may be.A land under general acquisition can become free by a process called excision.
“Excision is a process whereby the government releases a portion of an expanse of land that is not committed” If a parcel of land that was formerly under acquisition becomes excised; it is then considered free and becomes gazetted
The gazette then becomes the title on the land and such land is safe to buy because
a proper title can be processed on the land.
A second case where lands under general acquisition can be released is if an
individual purchased a land that was under acquisition without going through an
excision process.Such lands can go through another process called “ratification” or “regularization” in which the land owner pays for the land to be ratified or regularized. The only
conditions in this case are that the land in question must not fall within a committed
area and that the purpose for which the land was bought does not disrupt the
original plan of the state.
Conditions for ratification may differ from state to state.Now that you understand the classification of land.
