Represented by the Director of Public Building and Housing in the Ministry, Musa Abdullahi, the Minister announced that the Federal Government was in the process of constructing a Renewed Housing Estate in Kwara State.

"We will soon commence the construction of Renewed Housing Estate in Kwara State. The contract has been awarded and we are now doing formality to start the project. So, I want to express our sincere appreciation to the Kwara State Government for always being there for us. We hope to do more collaboration for positive achievement in future with the state," the Minister said.

The Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Housing and Urban Development, Dr Shuaib Belgore, who was represented by his Special Assistant, Dr Toyin Nasamu, explained that the ceremony was not merely a transfer of physical assets but a celebration of purposeful governance, collaboration, and shared responsibility between the Federal and State Governments.

"We are particularly delighted that Kwara State has taken the bold and commendable step of securing the purchase of this Estate. This decision clearly reflects Your Excellency's proactive vision to expand housing access and integrate this development into the broader urban growth plan of the State.

"Your administration has indeed recorded remarkable strides in structural and institutional development. The revitalisation and transformation of the iconic Kwara Hotel stands as a bold statement of economic renewal and investment confidence. The construction of the Kwara State International Conference Centre have repositioned the State as a destination for national and international engagements, fostering commerce, tourism, and knowledge exchange," he explained.
