From the dust of a filthy parcel of land emerges the Love Garden - an elegantly designed residential development in Surulere built by the Lagos State Development and Property Corporation (@lsdpcofficial).
Governor @jidesanwoolu today led members of the State cabinet to commission the 20-unit two-bedroom apartments located on Olorogun/Allen Street, Surulere.
The opening of the mini-housing scheme was greeted by spontaneous jubilation in the neighbourhood. Residents, in their number, trooped out to receive and appreciate Governor @jidesanwoolu for transforming what used to be a criminals’ hideout into a cosy residential asset.
The suspended twin three-storey development sits on 2,719.30m square land belonging to the State Universal Basic Education Board (@LSUBEB).
Besides, the Governor @jidesanwoolu also opened a vocational training centre built by @lsdpcofficial on Owolewa Street in Surulere.
