The Minister of Housing and Urban Development, Ahmed Dangiwa, has promised to reposition the ministry to function optimally in the delivery of housing to Nigerians.

Dangiwa who spoke when he received members of the Nigeria Institute of Architects in his office in Abuja, said the ministry would function as the organ that can provide policy directions to the housing industry.

The minister also explained that reviewing these policies would create an enabling environment that could lead to economic growth, catalyst for job creation and lifting Nigerians out of poverty. Earlier, NIA President, Enyi Ben-Eboh, listed areas impeding the practice of architecture, urging the minister to regulate influx of substandard building materials by working with Standard Organisation of Nigeria to create a unit that will solely deal on imported building materials.

MEANWHILE, Shelter Afrique has raised $100 million during the issuance of the local currency bond for Nigeria housing operations, as part of a medium-term loan to the tune of $250 million.
