The minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun has said after spending one year planning, the government is set to touch the lives of millions of Nigerians.
Speaking at the Spring Meetings of the World Bank/International Monetary Fund, Washington D.C, Adeosun who tweeted in her handle said the her administration has spent that last one year laying the foundation for the economy and now is for building and making a real positive difference in the lives of Nigerians.
Earlier at a meeting with representatives from International Finance Institutions the minister take forwards discussions on Nigeria’s agenda to deliver affordable housing.
“Delivering affordable housing is critical to the delivery of our reform agenda and is one of the key pillars for implementation we have been discussing in Washington this week.
“Nigeria has an estimated housing deficit of 17 million units, and with an estimated increase of 900,000 annually. Some of the reasons for this are clear.
“Interest rates are high for both developers and home buyers, and the tenure of debt remains too short. As a result, we have to find a way to accelerate the provision of affordable homes. That is why we have established the Family Homes Fund.
“We have requested N100 billion in the 2017 budget and for the subsequent three years as part of the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF), this is seed funding from the government, but this is not solely a public sector scheme, it will be a partnership with the private sector and we are looking to mobilise additional resources from domestic and external sources.
According to her the Fund will enable us to deliver discounted mortgages for home owners, while also enabling access to attractive funding mechanisms for developers. We are piloting in 6 states and the results of those pilots will guide long term programme implementation.”
The Minister is conducting a series of meetings on the implementation of some of the critical projects in the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan including meetings on Housing, Water, Power and Food Security.
“Many of these projects are already well advanced and we have had a series of productive meetings in Washington with development partners to advance those projects and hopefully accelerate implementation so we can meet the ambitious but achievable goals we have set ourselves.”

SO SERUBAWON IS DEAD! # copied # You mean despite he is a Senator of federal republic of Nigeria. (Two terms) First civilian governor of Osun state Chancellor of Adeleke University, CEO of all his companies, many chieftaincy titles, a political leader. He Built houses, has investments, has a brother with billions, has his desired cars, drink and eat whatever he wishes, has fans, supporters and friends, with his fame all over the state and country, with his handsomeness and clean skin, despite he has flown around the world, entered beautiful country, drive in cars and fly in planes. He is even aspiring to be governor again, that's to tell you his capacity and influence Now you mean he is going to sleep in ordinary sand not more than 6feet despite all the acres of land he has? It is even going to be outside not inside, no more AC to blow him but termites to feed on him. This is why you shouldn't allow anyone to steal your joy, never get mad at people for any reason, dont kill or go illegal to be rich, dont destroy others for any of your ambitions, stop keeping malice with anyone, invest in people than you will invest in properties. Make a simple life, desist from that evil thought, no matter how you do.. death is inevitable. A ni ku ni rewerewe We have heard so much goodness of Senator Isiaka Adeleke. A lesson for all. Adieu Serubawon ti ko le seruba iku

not gonna happen as long as the wealth does not stay within the country.
As long as the wealth does not circulate multiple times within the country, forget it.
