Sanwo-Olu’s govt urges property owners to give buildings facelifts
The Lagos State government has urged property owners to give their buildings a facelift to enhance the state’s aesthetics.
This is contained in a statement by the Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Oluyinka Olumide.
The statement was issued on Tuesday by the agency’s spokesperson, Mukaila Sanusi.
Mr Olumide said property owners, especially those on highways, should undertake the needed facelift of their buildings.
“We implore property owners, especially those on major highways such as Ikorodu Road, Agege Motor Road, Ahmadu Bello Way, Adeola Odeku Street, Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway and Herbert Macaulay Way, among others, to take heed and undertake the much-needed facelift of their building façades.
“Doing this will mean supporting the government in making the state a 21st-century economy, which is the vision of the government,” he said.
He advised those who have buildings on highways and major roads to ensure they regularly renew the approaches to the face of their buildings.
Mr Olumide urged them to regularly repaint and carry out façade repairs and general touch-ups in line with the Greater Lagos vision.
