The Secretary to the Ogun State Government; Tokunbo Talabi, Governor Dapo Abiodun and the immediate past Special Adviser and General Manager,Ogun State Property Investment Corporation (OPIC); Architect Abiodun Fari during the inspection of ongoing work at the President Muhammad Buhari Estate, Kobape, Abeokuta.

Abiodun, while disclosing that the project is among many inherited from the past administrations, noted that the contractor, who according to him had taken the state government to court and was about to get a judgment against the state, has been paid off.

The governor also stated that his administration pad off of the outstanding amount installmentaly.

“A lot of taxpayers money was spent on this project. Before we assumed office, the infrastructure contract had been awarded, basically the road network and the street lightning poles that you saw here.

“However, the contractor, was never paid. By the time we assumed office, the contractor had taken us to court.

“We didn’t even realize it because the previous administration had left the matter in court unattended to.

“So, when we assumed office, the contractor was about to be given judgment against the state.

“So, we had to scramble, wade into it, work out an amicable settlement with the contractor and began an installmental pay off of the amount outstanding.

“So, the Dapo Abiodun administration paid off the contractor,” he said.

The governor, while calling on prospective investors to take advantage of the discount available on the properties, said that his administration does not want the property to continue to remain idle as it had been in the last six to seven years.

“I expect them to come and start paying now because I am not involved in the direct sales.

“But, I am sure that our team has a plan where if you pay now while the construction is going on, you get some sort of discount.

“If you wait till it is finished, of course, you will pay a premium.

“So, I want to encourage the public to take advantage of the discount; you better come and pay now. We are a promise keeping administration.

“The development that we did across from the Governor’s Office, the King’s Court, that was a success. It was a success that it was not only sold out, we had more buyers than the units we built.

“So, I don’t want to put a time frame on when you should pay; it is up to you to come and pay,” he said.

The state helmsman also disclosed that his administration came up with a Public Private Partnership program where people were invited to express interest to partner with the state.

“We invited people to come and express interest to partner with us, and that expression of interest was finalized with a template that we allocate a parcel to you, you come and develop it, and you and the government jointly sell and share the proceeds.

“That proceed will be shared in a fashion where our partner is able to recover its invested funds and whatever margin that has been agreed with our property investment corporation and of course government on its part is able to realize that much that accrues to it from what would have been the sale of the land,” he said.

The immediate past Special Adviser and General Manager of the Ogun State Property Investment Corporation (OPIC); Mr. Abiodun Fari disclosed that the state government is looking at the next nine months for the delivery of the units under construction.

He added that phase one of the project would be used to unlock the value of land in the estate.(vitalnewsngr.com)
