Minister lauds Nigerian Army's housing intervention

The Federal Ministry of Housing and Urban Development has partnered with the Nigerian Air Force to provide affordable housing for its personnel.

The Minister of Housing and Urban Development, Ahmed Dangiwa, disclosed this during a courtesy visit by the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Hassan Bala Abubakar, to the Ministry in Abuja.

This was revealed in a statement by the Director of Information and Public Relations, FMHUD, Badamasi Haiba, on Thursday.

Dangiwa stated, “As the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development, we recognise the importance of providing suitable housing for members of the Nigerian Air Force. We assure you our commitment to working with you towards meeting the needs of our Air Force.”

The partnership is part of the Ministry’s Renewed Hope Housing Agenda, launched by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, which aims to provide 50,000 affordable housing units nationwide.

The programme has started in 13 locations across the country, with various purchasing options available, including outright purchase, rent-to-own, instalment payments, and mortgage loans with a single-digit interest rate.

Dangiwa also offered the National Housing Programme estate in Bauchi to the Nigerian Air Force at a discounted rate, with instalment payments. He directed the Permanent Secretary to coordinate an assessment tour of the NHP site in Bauchi to facilitate a speedy process of acquisition.

The Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Bala Abubakar, commended the Minister for his achievements and requested collaboration on providing affordable housing for Air Force personnel.

He also appealed for the NHP Bauchi housing units to be sold at a discounted rate with friendly payment terms, citing its potential to enhance the operational readiness of the force.
