Lagos Leverages Blockchain Technology to Combat Land Fraud
- Lagos is overhauling its land registry with blockchain technology.
- The initiative aims to create a tamper-proof and traceable land ownership system.
- A consortium of local technology firms is collaborating with the Lagos State government for a phased rollout.
The adoption of blockchain technology in Lagos's land registry is a significant step towards modernizing land administration in Nigeria and could serve as a model for other African nations. However, the success of this initiative will depend on effective implementation and overcoming potential challenges related to technology adoption and public trust.
