Ogun State Government has called on subscribers of Prince Court Estate to take full possession of their houses with immediate effect, as failure to comply may lead to forfeiture of the property.
Commissioner for Housing, Jagunmolu Akande Omoniyi gave this assurance during an interactive session with allottees of Prince Court Estate, Kobape, Abeokuta, saying the present administration’s agenda on housing was to meet the demands of the people who needed shelter.
Omoniyi reaffirmed the government’s commitment to providing necessary basic amenities, such as potable water and electricity supply, as well as prepaid meters, among others, to ease their livelihood.
The Commissioner said, ’’it is the responsibility of the government to make basic amenities available; the sinking of boreholes will not be needed as electricity and water supply are not part of what you should do’’.
He pleaded with those who were waiting for the next phase to exercise patience, saying the Ministry was working towards ensuring completion of the third phase of the estate.
Speaking, the Managing Director, Gateway Mortgage Bank, Mr. Wale Osisanya called on the allottees with the Bank to regularise their insurance policy and other mortgage documents, noting that the decision would prevent mortgage loss and unforeseen hazards.
