FG completes a sample of one & two bedroom houses. To Build 1Million Shleters For very poor, IDPs & refugees Across Nigeria As Humanitarian Minister Inpects houses.

The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Dr. Betta Edu has announced the federal government readiness to build renewed hope low-cost shelters for the very poor, Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and refugees across Nigeria.

This special project, according to the minister, was in line with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's commitment to providing dignified shelters for the poor, internally displaced persons and refugees in the country. This is one of the ways of addressing multidimensional poverty in the country.

The Minister made this known during an inspection of prototype shelters of two sample houses (one bedroom & two bedrooms) at Idu village.

She opined that both samples were built by the local people in that community for themselves, using local materials in ten days and very cost effective,this will be applicable across Nigeria.

She said the government wants to achieve the project in a record time because lots of IDPs exist in different parts of Nigeria, and they need a befitting shelter they can call their homes. Recently, IDP camp was burnt down in Borno state. Benue had millions without shelter due to the farmers-Herders clash.

Dr. Edu said
"what is also interesting about the project is the fact that we want to introduce the solar energy to it so that the shelters are not dependent on the National Grid, but they can use the solar energy to provide at least the basics such as bulb light, electricity for charging their phones and do their basic things with in the locality".

The Minister further stated that Mr. President directed that the shelters be built by the local community to provide them with skills and economic empowerment, as well as the dignity of owning their houses which the built by themselves under strict supervision by professionals

" The project is not a contract or to be built by a contractor.The local community will be given the dignity of building the house they will live in. They will see it as their project, they will own it, and they will not vandalise or destroy it. "
"To ensure quality control, the construction of the houses will be supervised by professional architects, engineers and support from the Federal Ministry of Works"

Dr. Edu said that the shelters will be built in Benue, Borno, Zamfara, Yobe,Cross River,Ebonyi Lagos Adamawa Bayelsa, and other states that have large numbers of IDPs, Refugees and extremely poor Nigerians.
According to her, the ground braking ceremony of the houses was done in Benue State, where the building of forty shelters was flagged off.

She also disclosed that ground clearing has been concluded in the 10 hectares of land in Benue while blocks mounding and preliminary work like digging is ongoing.

Aided Fulani on land grabbing? Where?

Terrorist killing and stealing people's lands and the useful idiots, especially the mumuish Igbos are serving the terrorists to their own detriment. What happened to returning the villagers to their original land? Is IDP camp their original ancestral land? Why building useless houses for them in IDP camp when your fulani terrorists are occupying their ancestral lands? Biafra will soon solve all these problems.

Idiot, is IDP camp their ancestral land where your terrorist fulanis killed and chased them away from? Why not return them to their ancestral lands where the fulanis have occupied? Well, Biafra will soon cure your terrorist madness.

Looks decent

Mumu head slamming terrorist, looks decent how? So building for them in IDP camps when they have their ancestral lands occupied by the terrorist fulanis is decent? Taqiya at work, but only for brainless idiots.

Fulani would invade a village kill & displace them & the highest the government could do is to build slum. Shamefull isn't?
There's different between owambe & governance. You guys haven't clicked sense in governing nigeria since 1967.

They should not bring this nonsense to Benue state unless they are building it in peoples ancestral villages.

The catholic church raised this alarm some days back but i thought it was a joke, how can you be building this in idp camps instead of using same amount to improve security and return people to their homes?

This government is trying to look more clueless than the previous one but time will tell.

Coward, which approach are you coward benue people using? Losing your land to terrorists and still talking jargon.

Yoruba and their owambe governance.

So, Fulani will sack a village and displace the abroginals to an IDP camp and the best the Yorubas can do is to build a container called house for them to live in, instead of chasing away the bandits and reclaiming the lands?

So much for Tinubu will handle economy and Shettima will handle security.

Yoruba are best on paper... and opposition.. give them power .. they turn Nigeria to Ibadan ...

If not for democracy

You need to see Ibadan as of 98/99../2000/2001...

Coming from the former regional headquarters of Yoruba...

Left for them to manage... they all abandoned it for Lagos ....Yoruba can’t build nada or manage nada.. they have all ideas on paper ..

The mosquito window in the is bad considering the heat in Nigeria except the government has hidden motives

Many Nigerians in Lagos and Abuja whose houses were destroyed needs rehabilitation fast
