‘Do not increase rent – Governor SANWO-OLU urges Lagos landlords



Tuesday, December 10, 2024 -Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has called on landlords and property owners to avoid raising rents and property prices following the inauguration of key infrastructure projects in Ifako-Ijaiye Local Government Area.

While commissioning the Abiola-Ajayi-Ogba and Obawole-Iju-Ishaga road projects on Monday, Sanwo-Olu emphasised that these developments aim to provide relief to residents rather than add to their burdens.

“I appeal to landlords and landowners: do not increase your rents and property prices. The essence of the infrastructure built is to bring relief to the people and not burden residents,” he stated.

The newly inaugurated 643-meter road, featuring a bridge and slip roads, connects areas that were previously accessible only via makeshift wooden bridges requiring a crossing fee.

“I am committed to addressing the long-standing problems of communities, including flooding and commuting. These projects symbolise our dedication to improving Lagosians’ daily lives,” Sanwo-Olu added.
