The Federal Ministry of Housing and Urban Development has commenced the construction of 500 housing units in Kano State.
Named Renewed Hope Estate, it is located at lambu village of Tofa Local Government Area.
The project will see the construction of blocks of 2-bedroom semi-detached, 1-bedroom semi-detached and 3-bedroom semi-detached bungalows.
Speaking, the Minister, housing and urban development, Ahmed Musa Dangiwa, who was on an assessment visit to the site expressed dissatisfaction over the slow phase of the work urging the contractor to sit up or risk losing the job.
“We are not happy with the level of work being carried out here. We expect you to be way ahead of where you are now. You need to sit up or by next week if we come back here and there is no progress, we take up the ones you have not started and give to someone.
