Gov. Abiodun Grants Amnesty to Property Owners Without Building Permits in Ogun

The Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has approved a special amnesty programme for property owners who constructed buildings without obtaining the required planning permits across the state.

This was disclosed in a statement issued by the Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Tpl. Olatunji Odunlami on Friday.

Odunlami said 50% rebates are given on penal fees which hitherto was x2 the planing permit fee for commercial, industrial and other developments and x1 for residential developments.


The Commissioner explained that the amnesty period will run from November 1, 2025, to January 31, 2026, offering property owners a three-month window to regularize their building approvals at reduced rates.

He noted that the gesture reflects Governor Abiodun’s commitment to promoting inclusive governance and easing the burden on citizens, particularly as an end-of-the-year concession.

The Commissioner urged affected individuals and corporate organizations to take advantage of the opportunity by visiting the Ogun State Planning and Development Permit Authority headquarters or any of the zonal planning offices for further information and guidance.

“50% rebates are hereby given on penal fees which hitherto was x2 the planing permit fee for commercial, industrial and other developments and x1 for residential developments.
 
“All those who have built residential, commercial, industrial and other developments without planning permit can now benefit from this magnanimity from 1st November, 2025 to 31st January, 2026 as an end of the year concession to the good people of Ogun State.
 
“Affected individuals and corporate bodies should visit Ogun State Planning and Development Permit Authority, headquarters and the Zonal Planning Offices for further information, clarification and guidance”.
