A property firm, Sytemap, has stated that 65 per cent of victims of land scams in Nigeria are women.

While announcing an initiative designed to empower women through affordable and secure land ownership in a statement, the firm stated that from March 8 to March 14, 2025, women, including professionals in Africa and the Diaspora, will enjoy an exclusive 50 per cent discount on plots from verified estate developers through the Sytemap platform.

It stated, “This initiative, themed ‘Her Land, Her Future,’ underscores Sytemap’s commitment to breaking cultural and economic barriers that have historically sidelined women from property ownership. Partnering with over 30 reputable estate developers, Sytemap is creating unprecedented opportunities for women to invest in land with confidence.

“For decades, women in Nigeria and across Africa have faced significant hurdles in land acquisition, including high costs, fear of fraud, and societal biases. In fact, studies show that 65 per cent of victims of land scams in Nigeria are women.

“This initiative will launch during the ‘Sytemap Land Trade Fair 1.0,’ an event bringing together key stakeholders, women’s organisations, and influencers to celebrate this transformative moment. Women in the Diaspora are encouraged to participate and take advantage of this life-changing opportunity.”

The Chief Executive Officer, Sytemap, Nnamdi Uba, noted that women have been marginalised for too long.

He said, “Imagine a future where women are equal stakeholders in property ownership, shaping communities and securing generational wealth. Sytemap invites women across Africa and the Diaspora to claim their space and rewrite the narrative of land ownership.

“Women have long been marginalised in land ownership, a critical path to building wealth and security. Our mission is not only to make land ownership accessible but to eliminate the fears and uncertainties that hold women back. With this initiative, Sytemap leverages its reputation for transparency and cutting-edge technology to offer a simple, scam-free, and empowering process for land purchase.

“The campaign is designed to resonate with young professionals, particularly women with good-paying jobs who are ready to invest in their future. For women in the Diaspora, the initiative offers tailored support, including seamless international payment options and an innovative plot-monitoring app that allows buyers to manage their investments from anywhere in the world.”
