65th Independence Anniversary Message
From Arc. Ahmed Musa Dangiwa, FNIA, FCIB
Honourable Minister of Housing and Urban Development
Federal Republic of Nigeria
Fellow Nigerians,

 

On this glorious occasion of our nation’s 65th Independence Anniversary, I join millions of citizens at home and abroad to salute the resilience, courage, and enduring spirit of our people. Sixty-five years ago, we began a bold journey of nationhood. Since then, through trials and triumphs, challenges and opportunities, Nigeria has continued to march forward with faith in our collective destiny.

 

We have come a long way—from the dreams of our founding fathers, through decades of nation-building, to today where, under the leadership of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, we are laying the foundations of a New Nigeria of Renewed Hope.

 

The Renewed Hope Agenda is more than a policy framework—it is a promise of national rebirth, a roadmap to prosperity, and a guarantee that the sacrifices of past generations will not be in vain. It is about building a Nigeria where every citizen has the opportunity to thrive, where governance delivers results, and where progress is shared by all.

 

In the housing and urban development sector, we have seen how far we have come and how much more we can achieve. In the past, housing delivery was slow, fragmented, and unable to keep pace with the needs of our growing population. Our cities expanded without proper planning, and millions of Nigerians were left without access to decent, affordable homes.

 

Today, under the Renewed Hope Agenda, we are turning the tide. We are implementing bold reforms in land administration, unlocking financing for affordable housing, regenerating our urban centres, and rolling out the Renewed Hope Housing Programme—a transformative plan to deliver tens of thousands of housing units across the nation. These initiatives are not only about building houses, but about building communities, creating jobs, stimulating local economies, and giving Nigerians dignity and security through homeownership.

 

Looking ahead, the future of housing and urban development in Nigeria is bright. With strategic reforms, strong partnerships, and innovative programmes, we are setting the stage for inclusive growth and sustainable development. We envision modern, well-planned cities, vibrant communities, and a housing sector that serves as a true driver of national prosperity.

 

On this Independence Day, I commend President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his visionary leadership and the bold strides he has taken to stabilise our economy, reform our institutions, and reposition Nigeria on the path of greatness. His courage and determination inspire confidence that the future we dream of is within reach.

 

I also pay tribute to you—the Nigerian people—for your resilience, your faith, and your unshakable belief in our nation. I urge you to continue to trust in Mr. President and in this government’s Renewed Hope Agenda. Together, let us build a Nigeria of prosperity, justice, and unity, where the hopes of every citizen can take root and flourish.

 

Happy Independence Day, Nigeria. May our flag forever fly high in pride and in glory.
God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
