Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu is set to inaugurate 233 new housing units on Abraham Adesanya Housing Estate, Ajah on the Lekki-Epe Expressway.

The housing commissioner, Moruf Akinderu-Fatai, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday.

The commissioner said that the housing units, to be inaugurated on Friday, would be expected to boost housing stock for the growing number of Lagos residents seeking decent accommodation.

According to the official, the project consists of 34 blocks containing a total of 233 housing units.

He noted that the estate was a joint venture between Lagos State Government and Urban Shelter Ltd., a private real estate company.

Mr Akinderu-Fatai said that the ministry remained committed to providing affordable and quality homes in line with Sanwo-Olu’s promise to complete all ongoing housing projects across the state.

The project sits on 3.7 hectares of land within the fully-developed Abraham Adesanya Housing Estate on the Lekki–Epe Expressway.

The Abraham Adesanya Housing Estate was inaugurated on January 15, 2001 by then-Governor Bola Tinubu.

Mr Sanwo-Olu had, in October 2025, inaugurated 420 housing units on the Akinsanya Sunny Ajose Housing Estate at Ajara.
