Abstract: Empiricism on institutional land administration in developing countries have historically and currently conveyed an anthology of process delays, database mismanagement, titling irregularities and data falsification encumbrances to real estate investment. In spite of these lingering information management deficiencies, a common argument does appear in extant research that the plethora of scholarly and cross-industry demonstrations of blockchain data management and security capacities and propensities are seemingly overlooked by land information managers in this region, especially in the focus area of Sub-Saharan Africa. The paper offers an instantiation for the validation of the Dynamic Capabilities Theory as predictor for blockchain-driven re-engineering of land information management processes in the area. The objectives of the study were to identify encumbrances of blockchain adoption in land information management in the study area, and to examine idiosyncratic dynamic capabilities which can be deployed in their attenuation. The methodology was a systematic review of related indexed studies which premised the theorizing of nexuses between idiosyncratic dynamic capabilities and organizational performance hindrances. From the findings of the study, pathways to a research agenda were established using 5 testable propositions for land information management. The paper promotes a theoretical framework for better understanding of the prospects of dynamic capabilities theory in engendering an improved and sustainable land information management system in the developing countries.
