Sanwo-Olu seizes unoccupied housing units in Sangotedo

 

The state government said it has recalled ownership of housing units left unoccupied for over two years. Commissioner for housing, Moruf Akinderu Fatai, made the comment during a visit to enforce Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s directive at one of the state’s housing estates in Sangotedo.

“Applying for a rent-to-own scheme presupposes the allottee is in desperate need of accommodation; why should such allotted flats be left unoccupied after two years?”

According to a report by People’s Gazette, Mr. Akinderu-Fatai also noted that unoccupied units could result in neglect and the deterioration of the estate’s infrastructure and explained that the revocation was intended to ensure that housing resources are distributed fairly to those in need.

He highlighted the government’s commitment to expanding the state’s housing stock through various initiatives. He also stressed the importance of occupying allocated units within three months to prevent revocation.
