Perm Sec inspects ‘high end’ estate
The Permanent Secretary, Lagos State Ministry of Housing, Mr. Olatunji Odunlami, last week, embarked on an inspection tour of housing projects in Gbagada area of the state. Accompanied on the tour by some workers, the team visited the “Baba Omojola” housing estate, which was commissioned on June 12 last year by former Governor Raji Fashola.
Baba Omojola housing estate shares fence with Gbagada estate, but has a separate entrance. The estate consist of 11 blocks of 88 units of four and five bedroom masionnette, while the road within the estate is well paved with interlock bricks. Other facilities there include 24- hour security, water, among others. Already, about 45 of the units are now being occupied. The estate is a high end income estate built for high income earners who are ready to pay fully for the cost of the units. Odunlami however declined to disclose the cost of acquiring a unit. High end income estate is a public private partnership initiative which is meant to deliver houses to high profile individuals
Odunlami said the visit is part of the routine check to ascertain the level of compliance in the use of facilities provided at the estate, and to ensure that all necessary facilities are intact before full occupation.
