The Federal Government has acquired 200 hectares of land within the Lekki Free Trade Zone, Lagos, for a building materials hub aimed at lowering housing production costs nationwide.

Minister of Housing and Urban Development, Mr Ahmed Dangiwa, disclosed the development during a tour of industrial areas within the Lekki and Lagos Free Zones, as reported by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday.

He explained that the hub is intended to promote local content in the construction sector, curb rising building material costs, encourage domestic production, and support sustainable housing delivery across the country.
