He revealed this at the year 2020 World Habitat Day on Monday in Alausa, Lagos with the theme: “Housing For All: A Better Urban Future”.

According to him, this move is necessary from a good government and he is happy that 303 Lagosians have now become homeowners in Oba Adeboruwa, Lateef Jakande, and Epe Housing Schemes under the policy.

He added that despite the coronavirus pandemic, he would not stop making sure accommodation is available to every Lagos resident.

“I seek the cooperation of all Lagosians toward the achievement of the Lagos of our dreams, a livable and sustainable city where everyone fulfills their legitimate aspirations irrespective of class, race or creed.

“The thrust of this year’s celebration is a major policy objective of the fourth pillar of our administration’s T.H.E.M.E.S agenda which is “Making Lagos a 21st Century Economy”.
