The spokesman added that once a payment was made, a land allottee would get his or her C of O within two weeks. He noted that land allottees were not encouraged to pay for their C of O because it took several years to process. “This has changed in line with President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda. “Also, even sourcing information on when a C of O is collected and details of the collector that used to take months, can now be done within 72 hours,” he said. He said that in the next few weeks, land allottees whose C of O were ready for collection would begin to receive an SMS informing them that their titled documents were ready.FCT Minister Wike has historically signed 5,481 Cs of O in 16 months.
