Enugu State Government is driving a bold and truly transformative change in land administration. During Afia TV’s Morning Show, we break down the Land Management Reform that is shifting the state from analogue processes to a fully digital system. This move will redefine how land records, ownership, and surveying are handled across Enugu.
The centerpiece of this reform is the Digital Survey Management System, a powerful innovation built to protect land assets, stop fraudulent activities, and finally resolve long-standing disputes in property documentation. To explain the full impact of this change, the programme featured Professor Victor Nnam, a renowned Surveying and Geoinformatics expert, Fellow of the Nigerian Institution of Surveyors, and former Commissioner for Lands and Urban Development in Enugu State.
Prof. Nnam highlights how this digital shift will increase transparency and make verification faster and more reliable. With this system, both professionals and property owners can trust the accuracy and integrity of survey data. He describes the initiative as more than a policy change—it is a legacy project that will boost public confidence, attract investors, and position Enugu as a national model for effective land governance.
The system, officially launched at a one-day workshop themed “Understanding the Enugu State Digital Survey Management System: Purpose, Benefits, and Implications,” showcases how technology is reshaping land administration. From geo-referencing layouts to real-time access to records, the platform simplifies land ownership processes and makes them far safer.
Ultimately, Enugu State is not just digitising land records—it is digitising trust. This vision-driven approach proves that, with technology and accountability, governance can become efficient, transparent, and truly people-focused.
