Oyo State Government has launched a digitized Certificate of Occupancy issuance platform, as part of its strategy for growing the Gross Domestic Product of the State.

A release issued by the Commissioner for Lands, Housing and Urban Development, Barrister Abiodun Abdu-Raheem noted that the processing and collection of Certificate of Occupancy are now faster, easier and affordable.

While he urged all eligible property owners without title or approved documents to take advantage of the opportunity, Abiodun also revealed that Oyo State Government will ensure all landowners in the State have digitized title documents by December 2022, amidst the accelerated provision of digitized title documents.

Abdu-Raheem said “the processing and collection of Certificate of Occupancy would take only Sixty (60) days under the Oyo State Home Owners Charter (OYHOC) scheme. While Government will bear the cost of survey, planning permission, and all other relevant documents for applicants who do not have them under the OYHOC scheme”.

“Records have shown that majority of residential landed properties in Oyo State have no registered titled documents leaving such property owners open to many risks, hence the need for the C of O”, he added.

According to the Lands helmsman, all C of O’s issued under the improved OYHOC will not only be digitized, for ease of authenticity confirmation, they would also be the same legal instrument as any other C of O being issued by the Government.

He added that “Property owners can now easily use their properties as collateral for any financial transaction as well as having their documentation on the digital database of the Ministry for ease of confirmation and transfer”.

Barrister Abiodun further hinted that application forms can be obtained at the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development at the State secretariat, all Local Government Authority Offices as well as Local Council Development Authority offices (LGA &LCDAs) for only N6,000.00 (Six thousand Naira) payable using customized OYHOC recharge cards.

He also said all applicants must immediately register their application by following the instructions on the recharge card as the unique PIN on the recharge card will serve as their application number and a receipt for the application form payment.

The Commissioner pointed out that the first 2,000 applicants will enjoy a 15% discount, hence it is critical for all applicants to immediately register their application with the OYHOC recharge cards following the instructions carefully. He, however, noted that the concessionary processing fee applicable for the OYHOC scheme C of O is only available for applications received between now and 31st December 2020.

Barrister Abiodun further urged applicants to visit the website www.lands.oyostate.gov.ng. while inquiries can be made through Room 4, Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development, State Secretariat, Agodi, Ibadan. Tel: 0700 696 52637 (0700 OYO LANDS) and email: lands@oyostate.gov.ng

Ajimobi Launches Electronic C of O,


Oyo State Governor, Mr Abiola Ajimobi, has announced the change of paper-based Certificate of Occupancy to an electronic version with security features to make it a lot more copy proof.


The electronic C of O will contain the following elements: a scanned photograph of the Owner printed on a copy-proof security paper; an encrypted and enhanced 2D bar code that is unique to the owner; an additional embedded security characteristic containing vital security information that can only be viewed with an enabled barcode reader that is unique to the Owner only; and​ a distinctive Certificate of Occupancy number that will be very legible for all to see.”

The people governor,ride on the man just they shake table anyhow lol

The only table that social media man is shaking is ignorant people's table because all the SW states from Lagos to Osun, Ogun, Ondo Eikiti Oyo don digitalize COC years ago including the same Oyo state under Ajimobi.

How do you even digitize what's already digitize years ago? Anything to fool ignorant people.
