By -
The Kwara State Government has kick-started the mapping and acquisition of land for the Federal Government's 100 housing units to be built in 774 Local Government Areas across the country. 

The project, which is part of the Federal Mass Housing Scheme under President Bola Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda, is in partnership with the Kwara State Government to facilitate access to quality and affordable shelter for all Kwarans.

Speaking with traditional rulers and community leaders of the designated areas for the federal intervention project, the Commissioner for Housing and Urban Development, Dr. Segun Ogunsola, who was accompanied by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry, Alhaja Risikat Abdulazeez, and experts from both the Ministry and Kwara Geographical Information Service (KWGIS), described the tour as a critical phase in implementing the laudable scheme meant to meet the housing needs of citizens.

Dr. Ogunsola thanked the communities for their support and cooperation with the AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq-led administration and stressed that the government is unwavering in its effort to make life more meaningful for citizens. 

The Commissioner assured that the project would have direct and significant benefits on the lives of people in the earmarked areas and boost housing opportunities in the state at large.

Responding, some of the community leaders appreciated the state government's efforts to reposition the state while appealing for increased patronage of local business operators to provide services needed during project execution.

Some of the areas visited include Ajase Ipo, Erin Ile, Offa, Oke Onigbin, Ekan Meje, and Osi in Irepodun, Oyun, Offa, Isin, Oke Ero, and Ekiti Local Government Areas of the state, respectively. 

Other areas to be visited by the Commissioner and his entourage are Kaiama, Baruten, Ifelodun, Edu, Patigi, Asa, Ilorin West, Ilorin East, and Ilorin South Local Government Areas of the state.

Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq extends his congratulations to the people of the state, especially the Muslims, on the new Hijrah Year, 1447 AH.  The Governor, meanwhile, has again approved that Thursday, the first day of Muharram 1447, be observed as a statewide holiday in commemoration of the new Islamic calendar.  He urges the Muslim community to reflect on the significance of the Hijrah in the life of the community and larger human society, calling for renewed commitment to excellent human relations, peaceful coexistence, dialogue, and mutual respect.  Hijrah teaches personal and collective sacrifice for good causes and abandonment of everything that is antithetical to peace, harmony, and social justice, according to the Governor in a statement.  He prays that the new Hijrah Year brings goodness and abundance, peace and increased security, enduring happiness, and renewed faith to all families in Kwara State and Nigeria.  Rafiu Ajakaye...
