Lagos State Government to Relocate Computer Village to ICT Park in Katangowa

 

The Lagos State government has reaffirmed its plans to move the Computer Village from Ikeja to the ICT Park in Katangowa, Agbado/Oke-Odo Local Council Development Area of the state.

Olajide Babatunde, the Special Adviser to the governor on E-GIS and Planning Matters, stated, “We are trying to reorganize all our markets. In Ikeja, we have a computer village. The computer village is being relocated. We are relocating them to Katangowa. It is not just the computer village alone. Other activities will happen in the Katangowa market.”

Babatunde also mentioned that the move is part of the government’s effort to provide a proper market space for the traders, which will include a range of facilities such as creche for their children, schools, playgrounds, mosques, churches, accommodation and hotel facilities, storage rooms, and warehouses.

The government aims to ensure that the relocation will alleviate traffic congestion and provide a conducive environment for businesses to thrive.

“We are trying to do things properly. We are working on all of these things to make sure that we regenerate, redevelop, renovate and conserve. Anything that we need to do in terms of the terminologies that we have in urban development will be put to play in Lagos in a way that you are going to have a greater Lagos,” Babatunde added.

The government plans to commence the relocation process in the coming weeks and assured that the new location at Katangowa will provide a fitting and sustainable environment for the Computer Village and other related activities.
