The Buhari administration has said that over two thousand hectares of land with titled documents have been given by 24 States for the Buhari administration’s Social Housing programme, while 17 States have indicated interest to participate in the Solar Power programme, both important elements of the ongoing Economic Sustainability Plan.

The administration also announced that it had reached an agreement with at least one major cement manufacturer in the country to sell at significantly discounted prices as low as N2600 per bag of cement for the social housing projects. This was after a meeting the Vice President held with three major cement manufacturers in the country namely Dangote Cement, Bua Cement and Lafarge Cement manufacturers.

Commenting on the implementation of components of the Economic Sustainability Plan (ESP), Professor Osinbajo said the Buhari administration will continue to focus on creating more jobs while improving access to power and affordable housing for majority of Nigerians.

Highlighting the progress so far, the Vice President assured that the Federal Government will ramp up efforts to so more Nigerians have access to electricity and affordable housing.

According to the presentation made by the Managing Director of the Rural Electrification Agency (REA), Alhaji Ahmad Salihijo, the Solar Power Naija team has had engagements with the 6 states who have identified private sector developers. The team has also selected Akwa Ibom, Ekiti and Kano as pilot states for the state-guaranteed transaction model for the solar power programme.

He explained that REA is currently tracking transactions worth N55 billion potentially contributing the first two million connections in Nigeria and providing thousands of jobs.

These two are among the most crucial tools of the NESP, and for the aim to be achieved, it should t be hijacked by Political actors, OVP should ensure those who was designed for, benefitted, this is the only way government can make low income earners become landlord too.

May God bless Osinbajo and all the people behind the success of economic sustainability plans.

The Vice President said and I quote "the Federal Government will ramp up efforts to so more Nigerians have access to electricity and affordable housing." and that is a good and welcome development

This is highly commendable. The ESP looks to create jobs, make life easier for Nigeria and drive development. I hope this program is well supervised in order to achieve its aim. Good job!

Nice development

They have christened Ruga social housing projects. If they build it in SE and import terrorists from the North, UGM will take down the place and disperse the land grabbing thieves.

Discounted price , playing the poor , loan , big project that's inflated , subsidy every program that can easily be looted from is what this government ( socialist) is interested in

When socialism is mixed with corruption Nigeria under APC is what u get

This government has not investment in any program that would generate wealth or capable of breaking even

The administration also announced that it had reached an agreement with at least one major cement manufacturer in the country to sell at significantly discounted prices as low as N2600 per bag of cement for the social housing projects.

Wow, this good for nothing useless government is aware that the price of cement is very high, so they reached an agreement just for the purpose of the social housing projects to buy for N2600

Masses can buy cement for N4000 or more government don’t care . Anyways masses are used to hardship and sufferness no big deal
