Lagos State Government has urged residents of Ikorodu Local Government Area to resolve their complaints and disputes on land use charges through the Land Use Charge Assessment Appeal Tribunal.
According to a statement on Monday, the Registrar of LUCAAT, Mrs Olayinka Oyegunle, stated this during the annual interactive session with leaders of the Community Development Committee in Ikorodu.
She said, “The tribunal and its free accessibility was established in August 2011 for all residents of the various communities in Ikorodu to serve as a platform where property owners could express their grievances in respect of LUC assessments and other related matters.
“We called on anyone with unresolved issues regarding the assessment or payment of their LUC to approach the Tribunal for assistance free of charge, enjoining all community leaders to encourage their members to take advantage of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s gesture of the 15 per cent early payment discount of LUC.”
Oyegunle also decried the incessant attacks on government officials in the course of distributing LUC demand notices in the area and urged community leaders to warn perpetrators to desist from such acts
