In the realm of urban development and housing, there emerges a figure whose dedication, vision, and sheer determination have brought about transformative changes to Nigeria‘s landscape. As the resounding news of his appointment reverberates through the nation, it is with great pleasure and admiration that we extend our heartfelt congratulations to Architect Ahmed Musa Dangiwa on his appointment as the Minister of Housing and Urban Development by the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration. This appointment not only marks a milestone in his illustrious career but also heralds a new era of progress and innovation in the housing sector. It is also a momentous occasion for Nigeria, and it underscores the administration‘s commitment to addressing the critical challenges of housing and urban development in our rapidly evolving nation.

With an impeccable record that spans three decades, Architect Ahmed Musa Dangiwa‘s journey is a testament to his unwavering commitment to excellence and his profound impact on the realms of architecture, real estate, and public service. His journey from an accomplished architect and academic to the former CEO/MD of the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria, and now as the Minister of Housing and Urban Development, showcases his dynamic ability to shape the course of urbanisation in Nigeria.

A Legacy of Achievement:

Architect Dangiwa‘s tenure at the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) is a hallmark of his visionary leadership. His mobilisation of an additional N279 billion in contribution to the National Housing Fund (NHF) scheme speaks volumes about his dedication to fostering sustainable housing solutions. Taking the helm when only N232 billion had accrued over 25 years, he mobilised an astounding N279 billion in additional contributions, averaging N55.8 billion per annum. This monumental achievement is a clear testament to his strategic acumen and his ability to galvanise resources towards a greater cause.

Architect Dangiwa‘s accomplishments extend beyond financial milestones, as he initiated and championed the N40 billion FMBN Cities Project, aiming to revolutionise urban living and enhance community well-being.

Under his guidance, FMBN achieved a record disbursement of N175 billion for affordable housing loans and construction finance. Providing NHF mortgage loans to nearly 6,000 beneficiaries and offering home renovation loans to over 77,000 individuals showcases his commitment to enhancing the lives of Nigerians through accessible and affordable housing solutions. The provision of affordable housing units nationwide has made a significant impact in addressing the housing deficit in the country.

 Notably, his leadership in creating the Diaspora mortgage loan is a testament to his dedication to ensuring that Nigerians abroad have the opportunity to own homes without the risks of exploitation.

 Dangiwa‘s accomplishments have been acknowledged and celebrated both nationally and internationally. From being named „Real Estate Personality of the Year“ in 2021 to receiving the „Mortgage Banker of the Year“ award and Presidential Award for Vocational Service 2021, his accolades are a testament to his unwavering commitment and outstanding contributions to housing and urban development. His awards range from recognition for his transformative impact to his advocacy for empowerment and disability inclusion, showcasing a well-rounded dedication to community welfare.

As the new Minister of Housing and Urban Development, Architect Ahmed Musa Dangiwa stands at the threshold of yet another chapter in his illustrious journey. His proven track record of leadership, innovation, and dedication positions him as a visionary poised to drive forward Nigeria‘s urban development and housing agenda. TEXEM, UK extend her heartiest congratulations to Architect Dangiwa and look forward to witnessing the transformational strides he will bring to this pivotal sector in Nigeria. His appointment represents a promise of a brighter, more sustainable, and inclusive urban future for all Nigerians.

An encouragement to others

First, this appointment is a testament that the organisation is living its values- Insights that inspire and actions that change the world. Secondly, it is a reminder of the impact TEXEM alums can have on the nation and the world when they apply the knowledge and skills they‘ve acquired through TEXEM‘s programmes. Furthermore, this achievement is not just a personal milestone for Architect Dangiwa. Still, it also represents the calibre of individuals TEXEM nurtures and their transformative impact in their respective fields.

As TEXEM congratulates Ahmed Musa Dangiwa on his well-deserved appointment, we also cease this moment as an opportunity to reaffirm its commitment to nurturing present and future strategic leaders. Dangiwa‘s journey demonstrates the tangible results that can be achieved when knowledge meets dedication. It is a reminder that TEXEM‘s role in shaping leaders transcends its programmes and extends to the broader impact these leaders have on society.
