Ohanaeze Ndigbo to host housing and economic summit as part of efforts to address development challenges and promote sustainable economic growth across the South-East region.
The apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation said the summit will focus on key issues affecting housing delivery, infrastructure development, and broader economic opportunities within the region.
The planned gathering is expected to bring together stakeholders from government, private sector, and development institutions to discuss practical strategies for improving investment inflows and expanding access to affordable housing.
According to organisers, the summit will also examine the role of housing development in driving economic growth, particularly through job creation, urban expansion, and improved infrastructure delivery.
Housing remains a major concern across many parts of Nigeria, with rising demand for affordable homes and limited financing options continuing to slow down large-scale development projects.
Stakeholders are expected to explore solutions such as improved housing finance systems, stronger public-private partnerships, and policy reforms aimed at reducing barriers to real estate investment.
The initiative reflects a broader push by regional groups to encourage economic self-reliance and attract investment into key sectors that can stimulate growth and development.
Observers say the summit could provide a platform for new ideas on addressing infrastructure gaps and strengthening economic planning in the South-East.
Further details on the event, including date and venue, are expected to be communicated by the organisers in due course.
