The Enugu State Government has announced plans to convene a broad-based stakeholders’ engagement meeting as part of its ongoing reforms and development initiatives in the state’s land sector.

The townhall meeting, scheduled for Tuesday, January 27, 2026, will take place at The Dome Hall, Enugu International Conference Centre, at 10:00 a.m. prompt.

The government, in a statement issued on Thursday by the Commissioner for Information and Communication, Dr. Malachy Agbo, said the engagement is aimed at providing stakeholders with clear, accessible, and up-to-date information on land sector development in Enugu State.

According to the statement, the initiative aligns with the administration of Governor Peter Mbah’s commitment to transparency, public participation, and the establishment of a modernised land management framework capable of safeguarding the rights and investments of landowners, developers, and investors.

Dr. Agbo explained that the engagement will also serve as a platform for participants to receive firsthand directives from the Governor on land sector reforms, understand their roles and responsibilities in land administration, and identify proactive measures for protecting communities and investments.

“The meeting is designed to deepen stakeholder understanding of government policies, promote orderly land administration, and strengthen confidence in Enugu State as a preferred investment destination,” the statement said.

The townhall is open to a wide range of stakeholders, including individual landowners, families and community landholders, estate developers, residents, community layout coordinators, surveyors, land buyers and agents, property lawyers, professional bodies, traditional rulers and town unions, business operators, religious organisations, financial institutions, academic and research institutions, media organisations, civil society groups, development partners, and other concerned citizens.

The government urged all relevant stakeholders to attend and actively participate in the engagement, describing it as a critical step toward building a transparent, investor-friendly, and sustainable land management system in the state.
