Vice President Kashim Shettima on Sunday disclosed that Nigeria requires N21 trillion to effectively bridge housing deficit, despite efforts across the three tiers of government.
Shettima stated this in Sokoto at the groundbreaking for the construction of a 500-unit housing estate by the State government.
The VP, who commended Governor Ahmed Aliyu for his efforts to address the housing needs of people of his State, noted that the housing deficit in Nigeria remained a huge challenge.
