We’ll Go After Ground Rent Defaulters From 2011 Till Date – Delta Govt

Delta State Government has warned that soon it would clampdown on defaulters of Ground Rent on Land and Properties as from 2011 till date in the state.

State Director of Information, Mr Paul Osahor in a statement obtained by BigPen Online on Monday, said Government will not hesitate to take all necessary legal actions including but not limited to either seal-up, outright seizure, revocation of title, reallocation, or outright disposal of the properties of defaulters.

It also said that all those who had made payment were expected to proceed to the Ground Rent Desk at the Ministry of Lands and Surveys, Ibusa Road, Asaba or the Circle Office at the Ministry of Lands and Surveys, Warri-Sapele Road, by Enerhen Junction, Warri with proof of payment for acknowledgment purposes to avoid being sanctioned.

Private and corporate land owners were advised to visit the Ground Desk Rent at the Deeds Registry of the Ministry of Lands and Surveys, Asaba or contact the Regional Circle offices to pick up their Demand Notices to enable them clear their outstanding Ground Rent and that member of the public should be guided.
