The Federal Government has given the first batch allottees of the National Housing programme(NHP), eight weeks ultimatum to complete their payments or forfeit their allocations.
This was disclosed by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Housing and Urban Development, Marcus Ogunbiyi, in a statement on Monday in Abuja.
As contained in the statement, Ogunbiyi, stressed that if the qualified subscribers failed to meet up with the eight weeks ultimatum, their allocations would be revoked.
The first batch offer of provisional allocation to the outright subscribers of houses under the NHP according to Ogunbiyi, began in April.
“A number of Outright Payment Subscribers have completed their payments, while some have started making deposit payments, but yet to complete their payments,”
“By this information, the Ministry is informing all the first batch outright subscribers who are yet to complete their payments for the houses offered them, a grace of eight weeks.
“They are advised to complete all payments within that time. Any subscriber who fails to complete payment within the eight weeks grace period will have the offer revoked,” he said
