Asides presenting a 3-bedroom apartment to a veteran Nollywood actress, Alhaja Lanre Hassan, known by the stage name “Mama Awero”, the Governor also presented free three-bedroom apartments to two members of the state’s teaching staff honoured at national education awards for their quality services.
The honorees are the Principal of Government Junior College in Ketu-Epe, Mr. Dunni Ikuseyi (Principal of the Year) and recipient of Teacher of the Year, Mrs Elusakin of Oriwu Model College.
According to the Commissioner for Housing, Moruf Akinderu-Fatai the housing project was the seventh scheme to be completed and inaugurated by the Sanwo-Olu administration, which catered for the high net individuals and low-income earners.
“Our joy is only complete when more people, particularly the low- and medium-income earners become home owners. In line with present realities, the convenient mortgage system fostered through our Rent-To-Own scheme will be utilised to a large extent in delivering the homes to the end users.”
