Nigerian Government Launches N250 Billion Fund for Affordable Housing and Economic Growth

The Nigerian government has officially launched the N250 billion Ministry of Finance Incorporated (MOFI) Real Estate Investment Fund (MREIF).
The announcement was made on Thursday via a statement from the Federal Ministry of Finance’s official X account.
According to the government, the fund’s primary goal is to provide low-cost, long-term mortgage financing, particularly focusing on the housing and construction industries, which are vital sectors for job creation and economic development.
At the signing ceremony, the Honourable Minister of Finance, Mr. Wale Edun, stated the importance of the initiative in bridging the country’s significant housing finance gap.
He explained that the new fund would offer mortgages with terms of up to 25 years, a stark contrast to the short-term, high-interest loans typically provided by commercial banks.
This longer repayment period is expected to make homeownership more accessible and affordable for Nigerians.
Edun also shared details about the fund’s structure, revealing that the first series, worth N150 billion, aims to attract substantial private-sector investment.
A second series, which will raise an additional N100 billion, will follow.
The initiative is closely aligned with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s vision to promote widespread homeownership, create jobs, and drive economic growth, particularly in the construction and real estate sectors.
Armstrong Takang, the Managing Director of MOFI, also spoke on the impact of the initiative, emphasizing that the MREIF will allow Nigerians to build generational wealth through sustainable homeownership.
