ABEOKUTA – The Commissioner for Housing, Jamiu Omoniyi, has announced that Ogun State Government plans to deliver 3,000 units of affordable housing across the state in 2026.
Speaking at a press conference in Abeokuta, Omoniyi commended Governor Prince Dapo Abiodun for his visionary leadership and support for the housing sector.
He noted that the sector had witnessed a remarkable transformation under the governor’s leadership, with the delivery of over 150 modern housing units in the Ibara GRA Urban Regeneration Project.
Omoniyi highlighted some of the key projects slated for execution in 2026, including the construction of an International Conference Centre, a modern Banquet Hall/Centre, and the Appeal Court Headquarters and Residences.
He also mentioned that the state would advance flagship housing developments in strategic locations, including Prince Courts Estate, ISEYA Court, Havila Court, and Havens Court.
“The state government is committed to providing quality, affordable, and sustainable housing for its citizens,” Omoniyi said.
“We have delivered more housing units than all previous administrations combined and are on track to complete over 10,000 affordable homes by the end of this administration.”
Omoniyi expressed confidence that the state’s housing investment would meet the rising demand for affordable, quality homes while driving slum regeneration and sustainable urban development.
He urged citizens to support the government’s efforts, saying, “With the continued support of His Excellency, Prince Dapo Abiodun, our partners, stakeholders, and the good people of Ogun State, we are confident that the future we are building today will stand the test of time.
“Beyond these, we will advance flagship housing developments across strategic locations, including Prince Courts Estate at Siun along Abeokuta-Sagamu Expressway; ISEYA Court, Oke-Mosan; Havila Court, Ibara; and Havens Court, Igbeba, Ijebu-Ode, alongside the continued Regeneration Scheme of Ibara GRA through Phase II.
“These initiatives are firmly aligned with the Year 2026 Budget of Sustainable Legacy, as eloquently articulated by His Excellency during the budget presentation.
“The strength of this commitment is evident in tangible outcomes across the State. The completed and several other landmark projects reflects enduring symbols of progress. Notably, work continues steadily on the Ibara GRA Urban Regeneration Project, where over 150 modern housing units have already been delivered out of more than 200 planned, restoring dignity, order, and structure to an area that had previously suffered years of neglect and illegal occupation.
“In line with the 2026 budget projections, the sector is also poised to deliver an additional 3,000 units of affordable housing across the State, including infrastructure-supported site-and-services schemes.
“While we remain justifiably proud of our sterling achievements, we are not oblivious to the challenges encountered along the way.
“The Year 2025 witnessed the activities of naysayers and purveyors of misinformation, with the housing sector receiving its fair share of unfounded criticism. We remain undeterred. As a resilient, focused, and progressive sector, we choose facts over fiction, delivery over distraction, and results over rhetoric.
“The visible transformation across communities and estates in the State stands as unquestionable evidence of the genuine developmental strides of this administration.
“In conclusion, distinguished members of the press, the Year 2026 presents yet another opportunity to deepen impact, expand access, and consolidate public trust as we work tirelessly to deliver His Excellency’s vision as encapsulated in the 2026 Budget of Sustainable Legacy.
“Our mission remains clear and unwavering: to provide quality, affordable, and sustainable housing while positioning the Gateway State as a benchmark for Housing & Urban Development in Nigeria and beyond.”
