That force that doesn't allow NEPA to give people pre-paid metres, that stops Nigerian Airways, that stops NITEL, that makes people faint on the day of answering questions, that doesn't allow our military to function effectively, that seats on ASUU, that allows judiciary to pervert judgement, that doesn't allow our health systems to function properly etc will that same force allow Russian system of Bitek building to see the light of the day? Well, I pray so.

Nigeria's Journalists don't want to learn

No background information whatsoever. The media is the university of the people. They ought to tell us more about the house building method through an independent research.

It seems these guys don't read New York Times, Bloomberg and Financial Times to learn from these world's leading names
They just dump the news to us to read.

From what they said, it can withstand both water and fire and can be recycled/redesign even after 300 years of useage. I think that's a cool deal. But remember can such thing be possible in Nigeria? Remember,lam the only licenced producer of cement, u wan kill my biz?
Sounds good then, grin

but not good for your cement business.

that their projection costs in excess of one trillion.
You see, if s politician promises you and fulfils twenty to forty percent which in this case is about four hundred billion, then he has tried. Let's jus hope that they'll surprise us by performing more than that

They just told you what it will cost to build a 3-bedroom bungalow using that method. It's not a politician promising something.

It's now up to us to find out how to use that method to build our private houses cheaper

There is a booklet that is normally issued which shows your contributions so far. After contributing for six months I think, you can start talking with them. Locate their office and make enquiries. The websites of most of these agencies are dormant. People have acquire houses through the fmb.

It should be affordable and allocated based on merit only, so the masses that really need the houses can benefit.

We always know what is right to do... but corruption will never allow us move forward.

Managing director of U.D Bond Shelter Services Limited Mrs. Priscilla Ugochukwu while commending the federal government for its mass housing programme plans spoke of the need to adopt the Bitek Wall Blocks Russian system of affordable housing which she said holds the solution to Nigeria’s deficit of 22 million housing units.

Has Dangote sanctioned it? Otherwise we'll be talking about this in another 20 years to come.

Nigerians will always experience shortage of houses and high prices with the kind of leadership we have always experienced.

Our leaders plan housing projects, embark on construction of housing units in choice areas, use looted funds to buy the houses at the rates decided by them. The houses are either then resold at exhorbitant rates or rented out at exhorbitant rates. The same goes for the market stalls.

Our only challenge and obstacle to growth and prosperity is corruption. Added to that now is nepotism and tribalism. The way it stands they seem impossible to overcome. Take all these out of the way and Nigeria will become one of the most beautiful countries on earth.

National Housing Fund my foot! Just avenue for some greedy and corrupt individuals to siphon money


I understand your frustration but you will definitely get your contributions back at retirement with 2% interest. Another point is that, you can actually apply for a housing loan of up to 15million from the NHF. Your contribution makes you eligible.
Of course information such as your age, length of service and income will be considered.

As Nigerians grapple with acute housing deficit, development experts have commended the federal government for its decision to embark on mass housing, following the recommendations of the Vice-President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo-led Economic Sustainability Committee (ESC).

The ESC had in the Nigeria Economic Sustainability Plan 2020 prepared by it and submitted to President Muhammadu Buhari last month recommended among other things, a mass housing programme which the committee said, “Is expected to deliver up to 300,000 homes annually, engaging young professionals and artisans.”

Managing director of U.D Bond Shelter Services Limited Mrs. Priscilla Ugochukwu while commending the federal government for its mass housing programme plans spoke of the need to adopt the Bitek Wall Blocks Russian system of affordable housing which she said holds the solution to Nigeria’s deficit of 22 million housing units.

Mrs. Ugochukwu stated, “One of the root problems of Nigeria’s seemingly endless housing difficulties is that Nigeria has, since independence, been reliant only on one of many other major inputs in building construction, and that is cement and sandcrete blocks (Block and Mortar). The monopolistic use of cement for housing delivery has made the cost of housing units very high in Nigeria, contributing to the growing housing deficit and low home-ownership ratio among Nigerians.

“With the Bitek Wall Blocks Russian System of Affordable Housing, cost of housing units are expected to fall drastically as the main component of the newly introduced system is special clay materials found in abundance in Nigeria.”

Corroborating her position, a property developer and housing expert, Mr. Nnamdi Onu, said “The special clay materials used for the Bitek Blocks Russian system of affordable housing are obtained through surface mining and with mining contributing less than 1% to Nigeria’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), analysts believe the new mass housing technology could help exceed the Buhari administration’s goal of making mining contribute 5% to GDP before 2025 and meet the Sustainable Development Goals’ “Housing for all by 2030.”

The housing development experts called on the Osinbajo-led ESC and the federal government to get in touch with Mr. Ben Gbade Ojo, a Nigerian who is a celebrated expert in the Bitek Wall Blocks Russian system of mass housing, adding that the Russian system will boost mining, housing development, industrialization, employment opportunities for Nigerians and economic development.

Mr. Ojo, a housing development and mortgage expert, member Nigeria-Russia Business Council and Abuja Chamber of Commerce & Industry, who introduced the Russian housing technology to Nigerian housing industry stakeholders last February had called on the federal government to tackle Nigeria’s growing housing deficit by launching a “Housing for all by 2030” programme, using the Bitek Wall Block Russian system of affordable housing. He said “such a housing programme will be a success in Nigeria and can develop about 22 million high quality affordable housing units in Abuja and the 36 states of Nigeria, within 10 years, effectively eliminating the nation’s housing deficit at a low cost”.

Mr. Ojo noted that it was pleasing that “Nigerians and Russians have partnered together to bring this world-class affordable housing technology to Nigeria to make high quality affordable housing delivery a dream come through in Nigeria”.

Dr. Valentine Boyko, a Russian housing expert had last February told newsmen in Abuja that houses built with Bitek Wall Blocks last for about 300 years and that it takes about 30 days to build a 3 bedroom bungalow of 100 square metres at a cost of about N3.6 million.

He said the houses were fire resistant, water resistant, eco-friendly and 40% cheaper to build than conventional cement houses adding that the same materials are used for the roofing and ceiling of the houses and are recyclable even after 300 years of existence of the building and can be used to rebuild or redesign the house.

Recently, Forward Nigeria Movement, a pro-democracy and good governance group, had also called on the Prof. Osinbajo-led ESC and the federal government to adopt the Russian high quality affordable housing system to boost homeownership in Nigeria and ensure the success of the federal government’s new mass housing programme.

The pro-democracy and good governance group had urged the federal government to reach out to Mr. Ojo and partner with him to successfully meet government’s mass housing objectives, using the Russian affordable housing system.

Nigeria has continued to struggle to find solutions to her housing deficit problems. Committees upon committees have been set up in the last several years, to come up with solutions that will reduce the nation’s growing housing deficit but the problem has somewhat defied solutions as the deficit, in recent statistical figures has ballooned from 17 million housing units estimated by the United Nation’s Habitat close to 10 years ago, to about 22 million housing units now, as a result of several studies, including a recent study by the World Bank.

The managing director of Shelter-Afrique, Mr. Andrew Chimphondah, had in his presentation at a one-day sensitization forum and 10th session of the World Urban Forum (WUF10) held in Abuja said that Nigeria has a 22 million housing deficit.

Housing deficit? Naaa. It is poverty and greed is the housing problem in Nigeria.

Go some areas. So many abandoned housing projects and houses completed but just too expensive to be occupied.

Some people cannot afford to pay rent of 2 years nor cant pay for a house. They live in batcha or under bridges.

Nigerians dnt easily accept new tech,even if it is cheap we find it difficult to wean ourselves from the sancrete blocks & cement in building houses which consume 70% of building cost,we dnt like clay bricks which raw materials are in abundance,southern Africans have gone far with using interlocking bricks to build houses.where are our professors of building technology when we need them most?

your statements are contradicting, Russia has extreme weathers at both end of the divide, extremely hot which results in wildfire and freezing temperatures. I still don't get your point Sir.
