This article examines various initiatives by the government to develop a functional property tax system capable of generating sufficient revenue for the LGAs. It observes that while there have been efforts to develop the capacity of LGAs in exploiting the property tax revenue source, the tax base coverage and revenue collection levels are still critical, calling for more attention. The paper documents the various strategies attempted in implementing property taxation as well as challenges experienced in property tax administration and their impact on revenue collection endeavour.
