Ogun State Government has approved 15 new private estates to operate under the Renewed Hope Cities framework in Q1 2026, unlocking access to FMBN’s 9.25% mortgages, infrastructure subsidies (roads, power, water), and Land Use Charge (LUC) exemptions for developers.
The approvals cover over 35,000 plots primarily in high-velocity corridors: Mowe–Ofada, Shimawa, Ijoko, and Sagamu. This move accelerates mid-market housing supply in Ogun, Nigeria’s fastest-growing peri-urban state, by aligning private developers with federal incentives to tackle the national housing deficit.
