 LASPPPA CAUTIONS AGAINST OCCUPYING BUILDINGS UNDER CONSTRUCTION

The Lagos State Physical Planning Permit Authority (LASPPPA) has raised concerns over the increasing trend of residents and occupants inhabiting buildings that are still under construction.


The Director of Monitoring and Compliance of LASPPPA, Tpl. Olarinde Iyiola expressed this concern recently during the Authority’s routine weekly enforcement exercise carried out by officials of the Monitoring and Compliance Unit. 


During the enforcement exercise, he noted that the Monitoring and Compliance officers of LASPPPA  encountered resistance from some property occupants who attempted to prevent their buildings from being sealed, claiming they currently reside on-site. 


The Director observed that most of these properties were not only under construction but also lacked the necessary permits and approvals required for lawful habitation.


He emphasised the grave dangers of residing in unfinished structures. “Living in a building under construction exposes individuals to serious safety risks including falling debris, unstable scaffolding, exposed electrical wiring, and the potential for slips, trips, and falls,” he warned.


According to him, such environments are particularly hazardous to children who may unknowingly interact with dangerous tools or unsecured materials.


He added that early occupancy also undermines the structural integrity and timeline of the construction process, leading to delays and increased project costs.


Tpl. Olarinde advised prospective tenants to prioritise safety by renting only completed and certified buildings. 


He further urged developers and property owners to ensure that their buildings are fully completed and inspected before opening them to be occupied.


“This behaviour not only endangers lives but contravenes the Lagos State Urban and Regional Planning and Development Law. Any attempt to occupy or rent out uncompleted structures is a violation that will be met with appropriate legal sanctions,” he stated.


He reiterated LASPPPA's commitment to enforcing compliance across the state in a bid to promote orderly development, enhance safety, and maintain the integrity of the built environment.


The Authority also called on community leaders, estate developers, and landlords to support government efforts by discouraging illegal occupation and encouraging compliance with all physical planning and building regulations.
