Ekiti Govt Reinforces Local Content Requirements for Immobiliare Construction company

News Update

In an effort to ensure the patronage of local artisans and vendors, the Ekiti State Government, through the Bureau of Local Content, has reiterated its policy requiring construction companies to prioritize the employment of local workers and the use of locally sourced materials.

The policy, overseen by the Director-General of the Ekiti State Bureau of Local Content, Olalekan Ijidale, has been reinforced, particularly for the Immobiliare construction company and other construction companies operating in the state.

During a recent unscheduled visit to an Immobiliare construction site, the Bureau team conducted a headcount to verify compliance with the local workforce and material requirements. This initiative is seen as a crucial component of the state’s efforts to boost economic and shared prosperity, as outlined in the agenda of Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji.

“We are committed to ensuring that the people of Ekiti State directly benefit from the development projects taking place in their communities,” said Ijidale. “By reaffirming the use of local workforce and materials, we are empowering our artisans and vendors, and driving economic growth from the grassroots.”

The policy is relevant for the Immobiliare and other construction companies handling projects in the state, which are major infrastructure undertakings. The Bureau has called on all citizens with relevant skills to approach the construction sites and explore the employment opportunities available.

The Ekiti State Government’s continued emphasis on the use of local workforce and materials for construction projects, including Immobiliare and other construction companies, is part of its broader strategy to promote sustainable and inclusive growth throughout the state.
