Adron Homes Chairman Commends Oyo State’s Real Estate Reforms, Urges Policy Continuity
The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Adron Group, Aare Adetola Emmanuelking, KOF, has lauded the Oyo State Government for its bold initiatives in reforming the real estate sector, describing the state as a land of “history, enterprise, and endless possibilities.”
Delivering a goodwill message titled “The Real Estate Called Oyo State” at the 2025 Oyo State Real Estate Conference in Ibadan, Aare Adetola praised the government’s efforts in creating a more transparent, investor-friendly environment that encourages sustainable housing development.
The conference, themed “Real Estate and Economic Development in Oyo State: Strategies for Success,” convened leading developers, policymakers, and investors to explore pathways for enhancing housing delivery and driving economic prosperity in the state.
Organised by the Office of the Special Adviser to the Governor on Housing and Urban Development in collaboration with the Real Estate Developers Association of Nigeria (REDAN), the event underscored the importance of policy stability, innovation, and robust public-private partnerships in advancing the real estate sector.
In his remarks, the Speaker of the Oyo State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin, reaffirmed the government’s commitment to promoting transparency and investor confidence through the digitalisation of land records (OYOGIS), improved urban planning, and ongoing infrastructure development.
He highlighted landmark reforms such as the passage of the Oyo State Land Control and Administration Bill, 2023, and the establishment of the Anti-Land Grabbing Task Force—measures that have significantly reduced land disputes and fostered sustainable property ownership. Ogundoyin also commended major developers, including Adron Homes and MKH Properties, for their contributions to strengthening investor confidence in the Oyo property market.
Aare Adetola Emmanuelking, in his address, applauded Governor Seyi Makinde, FNSE, for maintaining consistency in land administration and governance frameworks, noting that such continuity has continued to attract credible investors to the state.
He recalled that Adron Homes ventured into the Ibadan real estate market nearly a decade ago, encouraged by the state’s stable policy environment—a decision that has since produced impressive results. However, he urged the government and future administrations to sustain policy consistency, warning that policy reversals could undermine the progress already achieved.
The conference concluded with a shared commitment among stakeholders to deepen collaboration between the public and private sectors, strengthen regulatory transparency, and foster a business environment that positions Oyo State as a model destination for real estate investment in Nigeria.
