He, however, noted that the housing project would be realized through a Public Sector Partnership, adding that many companies have lined up to be part of the project.
Ashafa further noted that the project is going to be a 24-month project, and FHA will soon start inviting interested bidders who will be part of the construction.
He said, “It will be a 20,000-unit housing estate project that will enable Nigerians to own their own houses through “rent to own approach”.
“The golden jubilee estate as the name implies will be permanent like that of Festac town in Lagos.
