How you can own a house through Renewed Hope Housing Project – Minister

The Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development, Abdullahi Yusuf Ata, has called on Nigerian youths to actively seize the opportunity presented by the Renewed Hope Housing Project of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to become landlords.

He described the Project as a key national initiative under the administration of President Tinubu, aimed at addressing housing deficits and empowering vulnerable demographics, including young people.

The Minister made this appeal during a courtesy visit by the North West Youth Forum.

He explained that the Renewed Hope Housing Project, launched by President Tinubu in 2023, is more than just a housing scheme, “it is a holistic socio-economic intervention designed to create affordable home-ownership, generate employment, and stimulate local economies.

“The project targets low- and middle-income earners—including young professionals, artisans, and informal workers—by providing accessible mortgage plans and rent-to-own options,” he said.

The Minister noted that housing units are currently being developed across all 36 states and the FCT, and youths can apply through the Renewed Hope Housing online portal at www.fmhud.gov.ng.

He encouraged interested youths to register and begin the process of securing homes for themselves under this transformative program.

“The platform is open and transparent. Don’t wait. Apply now and tell other young people around you to do the same. Let’s move from complaints and ranting on social media to action. The days of watching from the sidelines are over—our generation must build, own, and lead,” he emphasized.

Ata also disclosed plans to collaborate with the Ministry of Youth to broaden awareness and accessibility of the Renewed Hope Housing initiative among young Nigerians nationwide.

“The synergy between the Ministry of Housing and the Ministry of Youth will be key in ensuring no youth is left out. We are building not just homes—but the future,” he remarked.

The Forum, an umbrella body representing youth groups across the North West geopolitical zone, visited the Minister to express their appreciation and pledged continued support for his role in uniting and uplifting young Nigerians across party lines.

Minister Ata expressed heartfelt gratitude for the visit, stating that he was deeply touched by the group’s gesture.

He concluded by urging youths to remain constructive and hopeful.
