Dangiwa explained that the Lagos project is part of seven Renewed Hope Cities being developed across the country, including Abuja, to address Nigeria’s housing deficit. He said the initiative is designed to provide decent and affordable homes for Nigerians.
During his Lagos tour, the Minister also visited the Lekki Free Trade Zone and announced plans for six Building Materials Manufacturing Hubs across the geo-political zones. He said the hubs, including one in Lekki, will boost local production, cut costs, and promote sustainable housing delivery nationwide.
