The Federal Government has revoked the Offer of Provisional Allocation of Houses under the National Housing Programme (NHP) for beneficiaries who failed to meet the required full and outright payment within the stipulated period.
The Federal Ministry of Housing and Urban Development, in a statement issued by its Director of Press and Public Relations, Salisu, Badamasi Haiba, announced that the revocation applies strictly to individuals who did not complete their payments within the initial 90-day period, as well as the additional eight-week grace period granted.
The statement quoted the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry, Dr. Shuaib Muhammad Belgore, to have said that the decision was in line with Paragraph 2 of the Provisional Offer of Allocation Letter issued to beneficiaries.
“The revocation does not affect beneficiaries who made their full payments on or before February 28, 2025. Such individuals are advised to visit the Ministry to collect their Letters of Allocation and proceed to take possession of their houses immediately,” the statement said.
The statement added that for public accountability, the Ministry has published the full list of affected individuals on its official website.
“Affected individuals have been advised to check the website, review the newspaper publications, or visit the Ministry’s headquarters in Mabushi, Abuja, for further enquiries. They may also contact the Director of Public Buildings and Housing Development at Room A221 of the Ministry’s office,” the statement stated further.
The ministry reaffirmed its commitment to providing accessible and affordable housing to Nigerians, stating that the revocation is part of efforts to ensure fairness and efficiency in the housing allocation process.
