You made money from the 'zoo'?

THIEF. You make money from Nigeria yet you hate Nigeria. E no go betta for you and your type.

If they really want cheap houses, they should build with red mud. It is cheaper and affordable.

The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, Tuesday, revealed that there would be change in the policy direction of the Buhari’s administration in the settlement sector.

This, he said, would commence in the 2016 budget implementation, as the Federal Government would spend N10b to build low income housing estate in each of the state of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

It will be recalled that the Obasanjo’s administration upturned the policy of Shagari’s administration by declaring that government would no longer build houses for people to occupy, subsequently, he sold off all government houses built during Shagari era.

During Obasanjo government, the government through the Ministry of Land, Housing and Urban Development was collaborating with the developers by providing lands for them to build ‘affordable’ housing estates. The policy direction that was replicated by both Ya’Adua and Jonathan governments.

However, Fashola unveiling Buhari’s administration agenda in the housing sector in Abuja, said there is need for the government to review the existing policy in the housing sector to address housing deficit in the country.

He said; “The Housing sector presents an enormous opportunity for positively impacting the economy to promote not only growth but inclusion.
“There have been a couple of National Housing policies and we intend to appraise the most current one to make changes only if necessary.
“Government will lead the aggressive intervention to increase supply, by undertaking construction of public housing and formulate policies that will invariably lead to private sector participation and ownership to reduce our housing deficit.”

Fashola maintained that the government would understudy ‘Jakande and Shagari’s housing estates model to develop an affordable housing unit for the masses, by building 40 blocks in each state.

He noted that the immediate past administration budgeted less in housing sector of the economy, the trends that would be reversed.
“So for us, consistency is key, annual spending is an imperative. We must change the budget for national housing from N1.8 Billion in 2015 to something in the hundreds of billions of Naira that matches our ambition.

“If we can spend N10 billion in each state and the FCT on housing alone every year subject to (a) the capacity to raise the money and (b) the capacity to utilize the funds having regards to our current construction methods and the time it takes to complete construction, which our ministry intends to change by research and industrialization of housing,” he said.

The minister explained that the government would embark on seminars and conferences to ensure proper capacity building for stakeholders in the sector to drive the new agenda.

According to him, “If we achieve this, we will move from where we are now, start construction in all 36 States and the FCT and sustain this as we go along.

“In the housing sector, if we complete our on-going projects, and we get land from the Governors in all states and the FCT to start what we know, using the Lagos Home model, we should start 40 Blocks of Housing in each state and FCT.

This govt is a great joke. 40 Blocks per state? I hope they give each state money to build theirs. Anambra has a high taste for building grand houses. Let him not built that stuff of housing estate in lagos in Anambra. They may not appreciate that style of estate. Only 1440 housing unit in 4yrs. This is madness and shameful for govt that boasts of 10 thousand housing unit every year. THE GREAT SCAM.

millhouse:
The only good news From apc thus far

Check your thinking again, 40 estate per state and 1440 in 4yrs instead of 10000 in a yr. Poor

hinwazaka:
This people are ridiculously stup1d. They seem to believe that their lies can last 6 months.

6 month and 16 years, any difference?

40 houses...

Hehehe

For how many people ?

two days ago, there was a thread here about the scam called state housing in Lagos with many people wailing about how they paid their 30% part running into millions of naira and the state government locked with their money, now fashola wants to repeat the same scam at the federal level. forty units is too small to make an impact and i guess that fashola would use 138 million to drill each borehole there and 78 million to design each website per block without signing checks? una neva shee shom tin.

they would soon delete your post and ban you for saying the truth, two days ago, we all saw the thread about how he duped many people in the Lagos homs low cost building scam.

chinchum:
good, i guess there are 6 units in each block of houses.

There will be 12 flats in each block, making 480 flats in each state and 17760 flats all over the nation in 2016 alone.

We are heading to the right direction.

Gej Waka Pass President. No lie only truth!
