The National Lands Commission (NLC) has failed to secure an advisory opinion from the Supreme Court (SC) to shield it from a series of compulsory acquisition cases.

NLC informed the SC that it has over 3,300 pending cases in court related to compulsory acquisition litigation, alongside several court decrees that require compliance and settlement.
