Enugu govt launches digital platform for 48-hour processing of land title applications

The Enugu State Government has launched the Enugu State Geographic Information System (ENGIS), a digital platform designed to streamline land title applications and ensure seamless processing within 48 hours.

The announcement was contained in a statement by Governor Peter Mbah via his official X account on Monday, following the official launch of the platform.

Governor Mbah described the initiative as a major step toward modernizing land administration and boosting transparency, noting that with ENGIS, land title applications can now be completed entirely online, allowing residents to process titles, conduct searches, and access results conveniently from the comfort of their homes.

He emphasized that the new system would eliminate land grabbing, double allocations, unauthorized constructions, and revenue diversion, thereby restoring trust in land management processes.

“Today, we officially commissioned the Enugu State Geographic Information System (ENGIS), a landmark achievement in our quest to modernize and sanitize land administration and management in our state. 

“With ENGIS, we are putting an end to the era of land grabbing, double allocations, unauthorized constructions, and revenue diversion. This is not just a win for government – it is a major victory for Ndi Enugu, as trust and transparency now define our land processes,” Gov. Mbah’s statement read in part.

It added, “With ENGIS, land title applications can now be completed entirely online within 48 hours. From the comfort of your home, you can process titles, conduct searches, and access results seamlessly.” 

The governor highlighted ENGIS as a tool to attract investors, enhance efficiency, and drive economic growth, aligning with his commitment to improving ease of doing business and digital governance. He praised the team for digitizing decades-old land records and noted the platform’s potential to boost Enugu’s revenue base significantly.
