Bennett Oghifo The Architects Registration Council of Nigeria (ARCON) has recommended that the Ekiti State government use the Architects Project Registration Number (APRN) to enable them track revenues from property transactions. The President, Architects Registration Council of Nigeria (ARCON), Arc. (Sir) Dipo Ajayi gave this advice when he led members of the council on a courtesy visit to the Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, recently. The ARCON president said the APRN would provide the governor with a database of all building approval registrations carried out in all local government areas within the State. This database is updated in real-time, and would enable the governor to track revenues that accrue to the state from: building approval charges; land use and appropriate taxes; property taxes; ground rent; other building development related revenues; enable the collation of labour and employment statistics in the state from the tracking of building construction activity on the registered projects within the APRN database.
