Africa Housing Awards has declared Senator Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko, representing the All Progressives Congress, APC Sokoto State as the Housing Friendly Legislator of the Year for sponsoring the real estate regulatory council of Nigeria bill 2021 which was recently passed by the Senate.
In a statement signed by Folorunsho Adegoke, the Producer Housing Development Programme on AIT/TVC said the real estate bill, sponsored by the distinguished Senator has come at a time when the country is currently faced with series of building collapse and reign of quacks and all sorts of malpractices in the real estate sector.
According to him, honouring Wamakko will make more legislatures to show interest in the real estate and affordable housing.
“We hope that a day will come when legislatures will begin to have constituency projects in the area of delivering a low cost housing to take care of those in their constituencies who cannot afford to build the house of their own,” Folorunsho said.
