Ogun introduces customer-friendly approach to industrialization

The Ogun State Government is set to adopt a customer-friendly approach to further aid its Urban Renewal and Industrialization drive.

The State Commissioner for Urban and Physical Planning, Bashorun Adebola Adeife who disclosed this in Abeokuta during a familiarization tour to Abeokuta Central and East Zonal Planning Offices, said the reason for adopting the approach was targeted at attracting more intending investors and builders so as to benefit from the urban renewal and industrialization policy of the Amosun-led administration.

He noted that the State Government had declared Zero tolerance to illegalities where necessary building permit and approval were not properly obtained according to laid down rules and regulations.

“We want to introduce a Customer-Friendly Approach to our job, we want to be closer to our people in order to further open the State for more projects. Government has declared Zero-tolerance to anyone or group that construct without the required permit from Government”. Adeife said.

The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Urban and Physical Planning, Mr Adetimileyin Muftau charged the Zonal Planning Officers to be diligent, hardworking and explore other means of boosting the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) of the State.
