We are appealing to the Lagos state government to do same so that Lagos residents can benefit from the housing programme. \u201cThe Federal Government is committed to providing <\/span><b>mass housing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and infrastructure to residents of Lagos State, \u201d he said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tolet.com.ng\/property-for-rent\/lagos\/ogba\/mini-flat\"><strong>MINI FLAT FOR RENT IN OGBA<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On road projects, Fashola said President Buhari had approved the construction and reconstruction of roads and that work would soon begin on the <\/span><b>Ogun\/Lagos road<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as well as the <\/span><b>Ikorodu<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to<\/span><b> Shagamu road<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. According to him, this would aid effective transportation system.

Also speaking, Alhaji Femi Okunnu, National Chairman, ADS urged the state government to exempt missionary schools from <\/span><b>paying tax<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as well as paying <\/span><b>Land Use Charge<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tolet.com.ng\/property-for-rent\/rivers\/port-harcourt?bedroom=2\"><strong>2 bedroom flat for rent in Port Harcourt<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> According to him, the missionary schools were established to assist the government in the area of quality education. \u201cThe missionary schools are one of the ways religious bodies support and assist the government in the delivery of quality education. \u201cThese schools are not profit-based and should be exempted from paying tax and Land Use Charge. Even if we have to pay, the charges should be minimal. \u201cWe are appealing to the state government to consider our request, \u201d Okunnu said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tolet.com.ng\/property-for-sale\/lagos\/lekki\/lekki-phase-1\/\"><strong>LAND FOR SALE IN LEKKI <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In his lecture entitled: \u2018Success and Peace through Submission\u2019, Sheikh Abdur-Rahman Ahmad, the National Chief Missioner of ADS, urged Muslims to be steadfast in their doings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: Vanguard<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mr. Babatunde Fashola, the Minister of Power, Works, and Housing, has urged the Lagos State Government to provide&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":10136,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[2106,2792,84,433,618,2791],"class_list":{"0":"post-10135","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-federal-ministry-of-power-works-housing","9":"tag-lagos-land-use-charge","10":"tag-lagos-state","11":"tag-lagos-state-government","12":"tag-national-housing-programme","13":"tag-tax","14":"cs-entry","15":"cs-video-wrap"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10135","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10135"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10135\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10137,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10135\/revisions\/10137"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10136"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10135"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10135"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10135"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
