Sanwo-Olu Disbands Landed Properties Special Team

Following mounting complaints over untidy activities of the Landed Properties Special Operations Team under the Lagos State Building Control Agency (LABSCA), which is under the Ministry of Physical Planning, the state governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu has disbanded the team.

The governor in a statement issued by the commissioner for information and strategy Mr. Gbenga Omotoso, at the weekend, said, “ After a careful examination of these complaints from well -meaning Lagosians, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has directed that the team, led by Engineer Peter Omotosho, be disbanded immediately.

“This is part of the steps the administration is taking towards repositioning the ministry and its agencies for better services to the public.”

The government warned that it will be illegal to carry out any action in the name of the team until a new rebranded team is reconstituted.

“Anybody who flouts this directive will face severe consequences of his/her action,” he said.
