 LASG URGES MANAGEMENT OF TRADE FAIR COMPLEX TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PLANNING PERMIT AMNESTY


The Lagos State Government has urged the management of Trade Fair Complex to emulate other Federal Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) and take advantage of the ongoing Planning Permit Amnesty for existing buildings without approval.


The State Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Dr Oluyinka Olumide, gave the advice on Tuesday at Alausa, Ikeja, stressing that many Federal Government Agencies, including the Nigeria Railway Corporation (NRC) and the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), have come forward and commenced the process of regularising their buildings under the current Amnesty Programme.


He enjoined the management of the International Trade Fair Complex to take a cue from other Government Agencies and hasten up to obtain Planning Permits for structures in the complex during the Amnesty window that was graciously approved by the Governor of Lagos State, Dr Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu.


“Building Approval is not negotiable for all structures within the confines of Lagos State as stipulated by the Lagos State Urban and Regional Planning and Development Law 2019 as amended”, he said.


He emphasised the need for owners of buildings without approval to key into the programme and avoid subsequent enforcement as planning approval was germane to the achievement of the livable and sustainable city goal of the State Government.


The current Amnesty window, the third of its kind under Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu's administration, runs from 1st November to 31st December 2025, during which the usual penal fees will be waived.
