If it’s not written, the Law hears Silence!

The law does not assume.
It verifies.

If it’s not written and properly documented, the law has little to work with. Not because you’re wrong, but because you cannot prove it.

Documentation is not about mistrust.
It’s about protecting your business.

Get that agreement documented today!

5 DOCUMENTS EVERY NIGERIAN SME MUST KEEP UPDATED

1. CAC CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

Your business' birth certificate.

It is required for banking, contracts, and investor confidence.

2. TAX CLEARANCE CERTIFICATE (TCC) Shows you're tax compliant Needed for government contracts, loans, and investor deals.

3. BUSINESS LICENSES & PERMITS Sector-specific approvals (e.g., NAFDAC, SON, CBN). Expired licenses - penalties + business disruption.

4. FOUNDERS" OR SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT Defines ownership, roles, and exit strategy. Protects against disputes that kill SMEs.

Buying land or a building is not complete the day money is paid and documents signed. Who holds the original documents and how they are shared matter.

In a proper land or house transaction, four original copies of the purchase document (with 4 copies of registered Survey Plan) must be signed and correctly distributed.

One original copy goes to the buyer, one to the seller, one is retained by the buyer’s Property Lawyer, and one is kept by the buyer for legal processing such as stamp duty, registration, Governor's Consent or Certificate of Occupancy (C of O).

Each original copy serves a purpose. The buyer’s copy secures proof of ownership and seller’s copy confirms lawful sale.

The Lawyer’s copy protects the transaction history and becomes needed evidence if disputes arise. The official copy ensures the transaction is recognized under the law.

If you are buying the seller's entire land or building, you must retrieve the seller’s original ownership documents relating to that property.

Leaving original documents in the seller’s custody after full sale is a legal error.

Those documents are part of the ownership chain and must pass fully to the buyer to prevent future claims, duplications or fraudulent resale.

Property investment is too valuable for shortcuts.

Correct document distribution and full document handover are very important to secure your ownership interests.

A signature can solidify your property or business investments or undermine it in no small measure.

In land/property and business transactions, your signature is the legal heartbeat of the deal.

No matter how busy, unavailable, abroad or under pressure you are, never ask anyone to sign your land, house, property or business Agreement for you.

Without a valid Power of Attorney (written power to act on your behalf) properly issued by you, that signature is legally empty, no matter how trusted the person may be.

In law, only your own signature gives a transaction legal force.

A document signed by a friend, relative, staff or associate on your behalf without a Power of Attorney is an invitation to wahala, denial and collapse of the transaction.

The law does not recognise excuses; it recognizes authority and authority comes only from your personal signature or a valid Power of Attorney.

Trust does not replace legality. Convenience does not cure invalidity. Urgency does not create authority.

If you cannot sign, then let a Property and Business Lawyer prepare a valid Power of Attorney for you, authorizing someone to sign for you. Else you are making a regrettable mistake.

In property and business matters, shortcuts are super expensive.

Your signature is your legal power; protect it.

DID YOU KNOW?

Registering a business name is not the same as registering a company.

✅ A Business Name gives recognition but does not create a separate legal personality.
✅ A Company, on the other hand, creates a legal entity of its own with rights, liabilities, and stronger protection for you and your business.

At Everything Legal, we help entrepreneurs, business owners, and startups choose the right structure that best protects their business and future.

👉 Don’t just register. Register right.
