Governor Siminalayi Fubara has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with two private companies to build 20,000 housing units for low and middle-class income earners and also to develop a central spare part market in the state.

The housing projects will be executed by Pricewise Home Nigeria Limited, a sister company to TAF Africa Global, the company that developed Riv/TAF Estate also known as Golf Estate in Port Harcourt. The automobile spare part market will be developed by Gosh Project Limited.

Speaking after the signing ceremony at the Government House in Port Harcourt on Saturday, Governor Fubara said the event fits into his aspiration to provide affordable homes for low-income earners.

On the proposed spare part market, Governor Fubara said the project forms part of his campaign promise to the Igbo-dominated spare part dealers for their support during the election.
