Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has charged two investors on low cost housing development and building of motor spare parts market to fast-track the process for the development of the state.
He stated that the problem of housing for low income earners in the state, that has been a huge concern, is now being addressed with the provision of 20,000 units of affordable houses.
Fubara spoke yesterday at the signing of two separate memoranda of understanding (MoU) between the state government and the two other companies at Government House in Port Harcourt.
For the development of RIV/TAF City Housing Project on 1000 hectares of land for 20,000 housing units, Rivers State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Prof Zacchaeus Adangor (SAN) signed for the state government while the Managing Director, Chief Executive Officer, Mr Mustapha Njie, signed for TAF Africa Global.
For the development of a Central Spare Parts Market, Adangor signed for the state government while the Chief Executive Officer, Okoh Jeff and Engr. Charles signed for GOSH Project Limited.
The governor said even if people already knew the mantra of his administration, which is consolidation and continuity, they also need to understand that it included expanding on the existing structure of the current city status.
