What is Land Use Act and Customary Tenure in Nigeria about?

The Land Use Act of 1978 did not abolish customary land tenure in Nigeria but modified it by vesting land in the Governor while allowing for the recognition of customary rights of occupancy. Judicial decisions affirm that existing customary rights remain valid unless the land is compulsorily acquired by the government. Thus, customary land tenure continues to exist within the framework established by the LUA.
