The Federal Government has given the first batch allottees of the National Housing Programme (NHP) eight weeks to complete their payments or risk forfeiting their allocations.

Dr. Marcus Ogunbiyi, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Housing and Urban Development, disclosed this in a statement on Monday in Abuja. “A number of Outright Payment Subscribers have completed their payments, while some have started making deposit payments, but yet to complete their payments,” he said.

Ogunbiyi stressed that if the qualified subscribers fail to meet up with the eight weeks’ grace, their allocations would be revoked. “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.”

Recall that a total of 8,925 applications were received by the ministry, comprising 1294 outright payment, 2408 Mortgage, and 2184 rent-to-own applications.
