Nigeria needs N56trn to bridge housing deficit – Jonathan

President Goodluck Jonathan

By Olumide T. Agunbiade
President Goodluck Jonathan says Nigeria needs N56 trillion to bridge the country’s 17 million housing units deficit.

Jonathan stated this at the 53rd General Assembly of the Nigerian Institute of Architects (NIA) in Abuja.

The shortfall alone minus infrastructure, according to the President, would require more than N56 trillion, at an average cost of N3.5 million per housing unit to remedy.

The President said the task if achieved, would improve on the nation’s prevailing home ownership rate of 25 per cent.
