The Lagos State Government has launched the Lagos Identity Project, a digital house-numbering initiative aimed at enhancing property identification and service delivery across the state.
The Special Adviser to the Governor on Enterprise Geographic Information System, Dr Olajide Babajide, said the initiative would significantly improve property identification and public service efficiency.
He made the remarks on Tuesday during the unveiling of the project in Alausa, Lagos.
Babajide explained that the digital plates, with QR codes and local government colour codes, would boost emergency response, postal services, and urban planning efforts.
“This project is about providing Lagosians with world-class services they truly deserve.
“We’ve had issues ranging from tax evasion to untraceable addresses. This new digital system is the solution,” Babajide said.
He said scanning the QR code on a building would grant access to essential property information for residents and relevant stakeholders.
The special adviser said the project would prevent rental fraud and enhance emergency location tracking throughout Lagos communities.
He linked the smart city initiative to Lagos’ earlier milestones, including the data centre built under President Tinubu’s tenure as governor.
According to him, those innovations earned Lagos international recognition in digital governance from institutions like the World Bank.
He further said Ikeja had 23,000 properties that would be numbered with the kick-off of the project, adding that the government would move into other local councils within the state gradually after completing the project in the Ikeja Local Council beginning from July.
“We are advising all owners of property that have been subdivided to come forward for reidentification,” he said.
