It also said more 60 hectares of land in Okokomaiko had already be acquired to ensure that most residents of the state actualise their dreams of becoming homeowners.
The state’s Commissioner for Housing, Moruf Akinderu-Fatai, said this is part of efforts of the government in addressing housing deficit in the state. He also added that discussions with property developers have reached advanced stages as the state is set to begin development of 3,600 low-income houses, comprising one-bedroom and two-bedroom flats.
