Beneficiaries of Mushin Housing estate to get homes Sept. 30

Beneficiaries of Mushin Housing estate under the Home Ownership Mortgage Scheme (HOMS) will be known by the end of this month, Lagos State Government has said.

Ministry of Housing Permanent Secretary Mr. Olatunji Odunlami, at a meeting with the prospective homeowners on Saturday, said the project was 95 per cent completed.

The Ambode administration, he said, was also restructuring the scheme, adding that this is responsible for the delay in handing over the houses to their owners.

He said work on the Sangotedo and Igando Housing schemes would soon be completed and delivered to the owners.

Odunlami said arrangements were being made to engage facility managers to run infrastructure in the estates.

Previous agreements on the houses, he said, would be implemented, adding: “Before the end of this month (September), our Mushin Project will be ready so that people can collect their keys. It is 95 per cent completed.

“We will continue to work simultaneously on the Sangotedo and Igando schemes, Sangotedo is 60 per cent completed,’’ Odunlami said.

The beneficiaries, Odunlami said, would be given update weekly and appealed for their understanding.
