'Solve national challenge by manufacturing houses'- Ooni of Ife advises
The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunnusi, Ojaja II, has come up with a solution to Nigeria's 17 million housing deficit.
According to the traditional ruler, the focus should be on manufacturing houses, rather than building,
Speaking at the launch of the second edition of “The state of Lagos Housing Market Report 2016’ compiled by Roland Igbinobia Real Foundation for Housing and Urban Development (RIRFHUD), he said focusing on manufacturing would signify readiness to put an end to the housing deficit.
“We need to all come together if we are going to work towards manufacturing homes because in Nigeria, we haven’t started manufacturing homes. What we are doing is building homes. The day we start to manufacture homes in this country, then we are serious,” he said.
The Ooni of Ife also called on all corporate organisations to invest in the real estate sector.
