The Committee’s core responsibilities include:

Conducting a thorough identification and documentation of all government-owned lands;

Reclaiming encroached lands from unauthorized individuals or groups;

Mediating and resolving land-related disputes in a fair and transparent manner.

Ogbeni Odulate emphasized that the task ahead is not an easy one, but a necessary effort in preserving the integrity of public assets for the benefit of current and future generations.

“I have charged the Committee to carry out their duties with honesty, transparency, and unwavering loyalty to the people of Sagamu. Their service is not just to the government, but to every resident whose future depends on proper land governance,” he stated.

The establishment of the Committee is expected to foster accountability, deter illegal land grabs, and create a clearer framework for managing land assets in Sagamu.

This move aligns with the local government’s broader agenda under the #IgbegaIjobaIbiIleSagamu campaign—aimed at driving grassroots development through good governance, accountability, and people-first policies.
