Domain verification issue for ijedelcda.lg.gov.ng

Hi Vercel team,

I’m trying to connect ijedelcda.lg.gov.ng to my Vercel project, but Vercel shows “This domain is linked to another Vercel account” and asks me to add a TXT record at _vercel.lg.gov.ng.

I manage the DNS for ijedelcda.lg.gov.ng through Go54. I have already added the TXT verification record provided by Vercel as _vercel.ijedelcda.lg.gov.ng, but the domain remains unverified.

Since _vercel.lg.gov.ng is outside the ijedelcda.lg.gov.ng DNS zone I can manage, I’m unable to add a record directly at that hostname.

Could you please advise how Vercel should verify ownership of this delegated .lg.gov.ng domain, or whether the domain needs to be verified/released on Vercel’s side?

Thank you.
