Collective efforts will drive housing sector growth – Sanwo-Olu

The Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has highlighted the importance of collective effort in achieving the required development in the property sector.

Sanwo-Olu said this at a recent event held by the Lagos State Development and Property Corporation on Victoria Island, Lagos.

He said, “The milestone the LSDPC is celebrating today is not the work of one individual but the hard work of a whole generation. This glory belongs to all governors who gave LSDPC a free hand to flourish and also every staff member who has worked in the corporation since its inception.

“This progress speaks to aligning with the vision of its establishment and purposeful leadership. I particularly acknowledge the efforts of the current and past leadership in the corporation who have toiled and laboured to build this great institution.

“They have built this great household name which all of us are proud of. We appreciate private sector partners who have taken the risk and worked with the government to give fresh breath in housing development.”

The Managing Director, LSDPC, Ayodeji Joseph, said the agency was repositioned to sustain and build on the legacy and ensure Lagosians have access to decent, affordable homes regardless of their economic status.

“In last five decades, we have fulfilled the vision of our founders. The next decades would be better and rewarding for the corporation, as we are opening new frontiers of innovation and partnership to deliver more safe, decent and sustainable housing schemes for Lagosians,” he said.
