By Bashir Bello

The Federal Government has commenced construction of 100 Renewed Hope Housing Units, tagged Tinubu Estate, in each local government area to support vulnerable persons, including victims of insecurity.

Mr Abdulaziz Abdulaziz, Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Public Enlightenment has revealed this in Kano on Tuesday.

He spoke during an inspection visit to Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the Renewed Hope City project in Janguza, Kano.

The presidential aide said the project was already underway and designed to provide succour to vulnerable Nigerians.

“Apart from this phase 1 and 2 of the Renewed Hope City project, there are also 100 housing units per local government, which have commenced as ‘Tinubu Estate.’

“They are targeted at vulnerable groups, especially victims of insecurity and other disadvantaged persons in the society.

“And this is being done across all local governments in Nigeria as we speak,” he said.

On the Renewed Hope City project, Abdulaziz said it was designed to address the country’s huge housing deficit.

“This is an effort by the President Bola Tinubu administration to reduce Nigeria’s housing deficit and also provide affordable housing for workers and other Nigerians.

“Already, people are patronising the project and allocations have been made.

“These are part of the sustainable projects the Tinubu administration is undertaking to support vulnerable Nigerians and address national challenges,” Abdulaziz said.

Also speaking, the Project Manager, Builder, Awe Augustine-Babatunde, said Phase 1 of the Renewed Hope City, comprising 325 housing units, had been completed, while Phase 2, with 698 housing units, would be ready by next month, August.

He said work at the site had reached 75 per cent completion, with about 426 housing units already constructed.

He added that the project included provisions for road networks, a school, a clinic, and a playground, among other facilities, to make it habitable for prospective occupants.
