According to him, Dangote Cement has supported Nigerian economy through job creation and philanthropy, among others.

The Minister for Housing and Urban Development, Ahmad Musa Dangiwa lauded Dangote Cement Plc for its contributions to the development of the Nigerian Economy.

He urged the company to join hands with government in bridging the gap of Housing deficit in the Country.

Speaking, the Coordinator of the Show, Bar. Festus Adebayo said the housing deficit in the country can be mitigated through Public Private Partnership (PPP).

He said : “Innovation and collaboration are top priorities for us, given the rapid technological advancements in housing construction, financing and system improvements.”

Adebayo said he was optimistic that the partnership with Dangote Cement Plc will help address the narrative of housing shortfall in the country.

Speaking earlier, the Director General, Nigerian Building and Road Research Institute, (NBRRI), Prof. Samson Duna, said : “Dangote cement dominates the Nigeria and West Africa markets in respect of patronage and is doing well.

“Dangote Cement stands for standard and quality. Thumbs up for Dangote cement.”

Speaking at the company’s Special Day, the National Sales Director, Dangote Cement Plc, Dolapo Alli, said: “Addressing housing issues requires collaboration among various stakeholders, including government agencies, private developers, non-profits, and communities.

“The government can adopt public-private partnerships (PPPs) to support mass housing initiatives.

“Through PPP models, the government may initiate the construction of new estates, while companies and firms in the building and construction sector can be granted tax waivers and credits to facilitate the financing of new and affordable housing developments.”

Spokesman of Dangote Group, Anthony Chiejina,in a statement said the theme of the 2025 Show: Reimagining Housing Through Innovation, Collaboration and Policy” aptly resonated with its core value.
