As we may all be aware, not all land is titled such as customary land. The only proof of ownership is an agreement to buy this land,’’endagaano’’. Here are some of the ways you can protect this land from being stolen:
1. Utilizing the land and not leaving it dormant without any structures or caretakers.
2. Informing local leaders such as the LC with proof of land ownership.
3. Placing visible placards or building on the plot. Informing the people that the plot is not for sale and who to contact in case of inquiries. We have all seen posters saying, ‘’this plot is not for sale or this is family land and is not for sale.’’
We suggest that, if possible, register and get a title for your land, as the law states that a land title is an unquestionable proof of land ownership.
