‘REQUIREMENT OF CONSENT IN THE ALIENATION OF INTERESTS IN LAND IN THE FEDERAL CAPITAL TERRITORY, ABUJA: THE CASE OF UNA V ATENDA REVISITED’

Abstract

This is a rejoinder to the contribution of Mr. Yusuf on the above topic65. This piece employs the doctrinal approach adopted by the jurist, Mr. Yusuf, and would use the laws cited by him and other materials to arrive at a different conclusion arrived at by him; to wit, that ‘consent’ is a sine qua non for the validity of any assignment of a right of occupancy over land in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja as against his position that it is not.
