The CEO of the Millard Fuller Foundation, Arc. Sam Odia, has reiterated the organization’s commitment to contributing significantly to Nigeria’s stock of affordable homes.

He made this statement during the commissioning of the 5km Masaka-Luvu Road by Vice-President Sen. Kashim Shettima on Thursday.

In his goodwill address, Odia mentioned that the organization could build up to 100,000 affordable homes nationwide in the next few years.

These home, he said would be designed to accommodate Government workers at the lowest cost possible, utilizing green, climate-smart, energy-efficient systems.

Odia also expressed the organization’s readiness to provide housing for national projects such as RUGA.

Odia, highlighting the progress, mentioned that the organization had already built more than a thousand units with immediate plans for 2,000 more.

He emphasized that the Luvu community was quickly evolving into a city and presented Luvu road as a valuable opportunity for both Federal and State Governments.

Odia stated, “We are fast becoming a city. This is a low-hanging fruit for both Federal and State Governments to latch onto.”

Vice-President Kashim Shettima, underscoring President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration’s commitment to infrastructure development, assured continued partnership with Nasarawa State for further infrastructure development.

Governor Abdullahi Sule expressed gratitude to Shettima, noting that the access road would bring about economic growth and development given the growing population in the area.
