The efficiency and effectiveness of land administration system had been acknowledged to be premised on so many factors, arguably the chief of which, is the degree of mutuality, frictionlessness and bi-directionality in the interrelationship that exist amongst the various factors that are discharging arrays of tasks that these formal lands regulo-administrative machineries are saddled with. Undoubtedly, this simple conduct of affairs resultantly drives the formal lands delivery, hence it increases accessibility to urban lands by several categories of users in Nigeria, as thus the case globally. However, these interrelationships are absent among land administration and regulation systems in Nigeria. Hence, this study intends to assess the direct and possible indirect impacts that these interrelationships fallouts have on the formal delivery and accessibility of urban lands in Nigeria, Firstly, this was done by articulating the issues involved and calibrating them into constructs, then measuring them via the following score-cards, thus: myopism, non-ingenuity, disservice, eco-financial loss, distrust, trauma, anti-growth, death, market distortion and thriving informalisation focussing on the South Western Nigeria. Out of the total 586 individuals considered as the total population for the sample space, 120 individual qualified for the sample frame, upon which the structured questionnaires were distributed among land regulators, land administrators, independent land consultants and ultimate land users, essentially to have a fair and broad view of the issues inherent in this lands accessibility dilemma. 93 questionnaires were retrieved, out of which 87 questionnaires were valid, thus formed the basis upon which analyses were done, with emphasis on the 5 point Likert scale measurement usage, via both inferential and descriptive statistical tools. The results showed amongst other things, that unbridled relationship frictions had led to unwarranted role jettisoning and this impacts adversely on the delivery pace which concomitantly warps formal pathway to accessing urban lands by various categories of land users. Among the recommendations are that government formal land agencies should be re-configured to build synergy that engenders positive interrelationship and role synchronisation towards improved formal land delivery and accessibility in Nigeria.

Известно, что производительность и эффективность системы управления земельными ресурсами зависит от очень многих факторов, возможно, главным из которых, является степень взаимности, согласованности и би-направленности взаимосвязи, которая существует между различными субъ-ектами, обремененными собственными регуляторно-административными механизмами, которые ставят ряд задач. Несомненно, это простое ведение дел приводит к формальному распределению земельных участков и, следовательно, повышает доступность городских земель для нескольких категорий пользователей в Нигерии, так как этом случае делается во всем мире. Тем не менее, эти взаимосвязи отсутствуют в управлении земельными ресурсами и системе регулирования в Нигерии. Таким образом, данное исследование намерено оценить прямые и возможные косвенные последствия, которые эти взаимосвязи оказывают на формальную передачу и доступность городских земель в Нигерии. Во-первых, это было сделано, формулируя вопросы, связанные с данной проблемой и калибруя их в концепции, а затем оценивая их с помощью следующих оценочных карт, а именно: миопизм, неизобретательность, ущерб, эко-финансовые потери, недоверие, травмы, антирост, смерть, искажение рынка и процветающая неформализация в Юго-Западной Нигерии. Из общего числа 586 лиц, рассматриваемых в качестве среднестатистического населения для выбранного для опроса района, 120 респондентам были предложены структурированные опросники для регуляторов земельных вопросов, земельных администраторов, независимых земельных консультантов и непосредственных пользователей земельных участков для того, чтобы сформировать честное и широкое представление о вопросах, связанных с дилеммой доступности земли. Было получено 93 анкеты, из которых 87 были признаны действительными, и, таким образом, легли в основу сделанного анализа, с акцентом на 5-бальной шкале Лайкерта с помощью умозаключений и описательных статистических инструментов. Результаты исследования показали, среди прочего, что трения в отношениях привели к необоснованному отбрасыванию ролей, что негативно влияет на темпы доставки, и одновременно приводит к перекосам на пути к формальному доступу к городским землям для различных категорий землепользователей. Среди рекомендаций сле-дующие: государственные формальные земельные органы должны быть перенастроены для создания синергии, которая порождает положительную взаимосвязь и синхронизацию ролей в направлении улучшения формальной передачи земли и ее доступности в Нигерии.
