The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, has urged the Federal Housing Authority, to replicate the opportunities of its housing ecosystem across the country.
Fashola made the call in Abuja during the formal presentation of the annual report of the current Board of Directors of the Housing Authority by its Chairman, Lawal Shuaibu.
The Minister said that he was impressed by the wealth and job creation given by the seven hundred and seventy six housing units project in Zuba, FCT, Abuja, which employed more than 10,000 people including artisans in housing value chain.
This he said had addressed the issues of social exclusion, joblessness and unemployment, thereby adding dignity to humanity.
The minister however, lauded the board of directors on its accountability and doggedness in housing provision, adding that it portrayed strong validation of commitment of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration to accountability.
He said that the ministry would escalate not only the reports, but its salient points to the President for further consideration.
