UrbanMystique: may be the should put that in Ajegunle then.

jmaine:

Kindly produce a post of mine saying that Seanet SeeDunce01. Failure to do that makes you a slut . . . .

Btw, I hope with all this, Fash will not be overlooked for a certain Buhari for the APC presidency.

It will be amusing to see contrary posts in the future concerning that.

Lagos disburses N119m housing loan to staff


By Ekene Okoro / Snr. Correspondent, Lagos



The Lagos State Government on Friday said over N119.7 million has been disbursed as housing loan to its workers in the last one year.

State Head of Service, Mrs. Oluseyi Williams who revealed this at a ministerial briefing in Alausa, Ikeja, said a total of 555 officers benefited from the facility within the period.

According to her, the loan was to enable the beneficiaries acquire land and build their own houses.

Williams said that the government had also allocated apartments to some workers at the various staff quarters to ease their accommodation problems.

If the winners pay promptly, the government will increase the monthly stock of houses on offer from 200 to even 600 units. The governor is confident that the scheme will continue after he ceases to be in office next year. “An institution has been developed and a system created, so the scheme is taking a life of its own”, he noted in a recent interview. The only obstacle he fears is payment default. He has consequently been appealing to the winners to take prompt payment as an article of faith. He said at the flag-off ceremony: “I want to make perhaps the most important appeal, that is, the right to own a home comes with a lot of responsibilities to pay monthly charges and rates. By so doing, you will bring back a pool of money into the system that will enable us to build for other people who have paid their taxes and are in the queue.”

Tunde Alabi, publisher of the New York-based Black Ivory magazine who runs a business consulting firm in Lagos. He shares the governor’s projection that in the next 7 years the scheme should be self financing, thus consigning the state government to the role of a regulator and purchaser of homes built by the private sector. “The government will no longer be investing directly in building houses”, he adds, recalling that the government did not obtain a loan to kick off the scheme. “It relied purely on internally generated revenue, prudent financial management and disciplined economic husbandry to save N200m monthly for this scheme before escalating the savings to N500m every month”.

[b]Emeka Onuorah, immediate past president of the Nigerian Institution of Estate Surveyors and Valuers who says he has known Fashola right from their childhood days in Surulere, remarks that the governor did not wake up one morning and just hit upon the idea of developing an “incomparable home ownership scheme in Nigeria. In fact, he was a young lawyer when he handled a case against the state government for the non-payment of suppliers of materials to the Jakande housing scheme, and ironically had become the chief of staff to Governor Tinubu when the court judgment was to be executed. So, he understands the loopholes in the Jakande scheme and avoids them in the Lagos HOMS. Besides, he went to Singapore shortly after he became governor to speak personally to Lee Kuan Yew so as to profit from the legendary former prime minister’s experience in his eminently successful housing development programme. So, Fashola has personally driven the scheme, having held 29 meetings on the scheme in the last three years. This is why he is able to deliver a home ownership scheme which meets international standards”.[/b]

Onuorah commends the ample space created for each flat, calling it “a great leap from the matchboxes which pass for houses in the name of mass housing even in developed nations”. A 1-bedroom flat has a space of 60.22m square metres, a 2-bedroom flat 75.79square metres and a 3-bedroom flat 123.88square metres. “They also have more living areas than regular flats”, he notes.

Governor Fashola observes that the Lagos HOMS has created considerable business and employment opportunities. 134 construction companies, 459 sub contractors employing 1,168 persons and 7 consulting firms have been engaged so far. In addition, 5,442 suppliers and artisans like labourers and food vendors have benefitted from it. “This is the kind of ambitious building and construction programme needed to provide a critically needed service in Nigeria and at the same empower a large spectrum of our society”, observes Haruna Abubakar, an economist with Heritage consulting firm in Lagos. “Fashola has set the pace, and it now behooves other governments in Nigeria to take a cue, so that our people can get the dividends of democracy in a profound and sustainable manner. In executing such schemes, the other governments in Nigeria must follow the Fashola example by not politicizing the process of giving out the houses. Fashola has scored yet another bull’s eye”.

UrbanMystique: is this one under construction too or just combination of all the pictures posted?

EkoIle1:


It's under construction like the same Ilubiin scheme GEJ's errand boy and thug Obanikoro tried to stop .

These 2 are set to be the largest estates so far...

1,254 units in Ilubrin and 1,080 units in Ijora Badia.

seanet01: Go and inquire from the Lagos state Ministry of housing.

youngmonie: Good job on the governor, this is real economic development that we want in Nigeria. Imagine if this is done in every local government in the state. The spiral effect it will have on JOBS, they will employ bricklayers, architects, surveyors, electricians, plumbers, welders, engineers, painters, local business too will benefit, those that sell block, cement, iron , wood, windows, roofing sheets, nails, doors, kitchen units, the economic benefits are just enormous.

That is wht infrastructural development is very key to economic growth, something the governor has not relented in doing in lagos, same with akpabio they understand the effect it has

so many people would benefit economically

UrbanMystique: I thought they said fashola only works for Islanders ?

EkoIle1: Now, lets clap worth some of the lucky home owners and happy lagosians...


.

berem: This thread is on the 5th page and it hasn't made front page yet?

Firefire:


If that would be your response, then why not allow the Lagos state Ministry of housing to post and make comments here instead of you people bringing on NAIRALAND FALSE INFORMATION and Half truth.


:oNAIRALANDER's BEWARE of those who came in sheep clothings.

CHESSBOARD:

I didnt see any poor looking man in that pix....seems the well wishers of those in government are the beneficiaries..SMH

CHESSBOARD:

How can you be asking the best Governor in the South East to leave.... I mean, I am from Abia state but this guy is the best thing to happen to SE in terms of infrastructure...why are you hating bro

Sincere9gerian: Thunder fire all APC leaders and APC e-goats if they dont present Fashola as the presidential candidate of APC in 2015 ahead of the likes of Buhari/Kwankwaso. Yeye dey smell.

Meanwhile, besides the deportation saga, I have nothing against Fashola as a PERSON. Yes, I may have criticized him a few times, but that was mostly to counter the propaganda, hate, lies and clannish tendencies of APC e-goats.

Again, I have also criticized Fashola for his penchant for attacking the president unnecessarily of late. I guess he is working very hard to impress the godfathers in APC ahead of the sharing of political offices in post-2015.

Beside of all the above, Fashola is a hardworking fine gentleman, an excellent administrator and one of the best governors in the country.

Definitely, he would have done better if not for the over-bearing influence Tinubu.

What is certain is that while many people are impressed with Fashola, Tinubu is certainly not impressed. Consequently, Tinubu will ensure nothing for Fashola on the platform of APC post-2015.

The possibility of Fashola defecting to PDP after 2015 is very high.
