In a country where access to decent and affordable housing remains one of the most pressing challenges, the Africa International Housing Show (AIHS) has become a beacon of hope and transformation.
Over the past 18 years, this annual gathering of stakeholders in the housing sector has done more than just bring people together, it has directly contributed to over 20,000 Nigerians gaining access to housing.
Now in its 19th year, the 2025 edition of AIHS is scheduled to take place from July 27th to August 1st, 2025, at the prestigious Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja. With expectations already sky-high, the Convener of AIHS, Festus Adebayo, promises a bigger, better, and more impactful event.
“This year, we have considered the safety and security of our participants and have made plans to ensure that we host our events in a secure environment that allows for interaction and networking without fear,” Adebayo said. “Our guests can lodge at the hotel and walk down to the conference hall for the sessions. We invite everyone to be part of AIHS 2025.”
What sets AIHS apart is not just the scale of the event, but the lasting impact it has had on the lives of everyday Nigerians. From promoting innovative housing solutions to facilitating affordable mortgage options, the AIHS platform has become instrumental in bridging the housing gap in Nigeria.
Through partnerships with developers, financial institutions, and policymakers, AIHS has helped countless families move from makeshift shelters and rented apartments into homes they can proudly call their own. For many, it has been a life-changing experience.
According to Folorunsho Adegoke, the Media and Communications Lead for AIHS 2025, the show is not just about exhibitions and sales, it’s a policy-shaping, solutions-driven platform.
“Housing is a major problem for many around the world. Homeless shelters are increasing daily. We aim to solve this problem by advocating for and offering innovative solutions to housing challenges,” he said.
Each year, the show hosts top government officials, local and international developers, builders, architects, engineers, interior design experts, and environmental specialists—all contributing to the central theme of making housing more affordable, sustainable, and inclusive.
Since its inception, AIHS has remained consistent in advocating for housing reforms and has served as fertile ground for launching groundbreaking ideas in green building, housing finance, urban planning, and alternative energy for homes.
Adebayo emphasized that the journey is far from over.
“The younger generation needs to know that housing is their right. We have to provide them with the right tools to succeed and make meaning out of life. We are passionate about affordable and accessible housing. That is what we’ve been doing, and we won’t stop until every Nigerian has a house.”
This year’s event promises even more value. From first-time homeowners to industry leaders and policymakers, AIHS 2025 is the one place where vision meets opportunity. With exhibitors showcasing the latest in housing technology, mortgage options, building materials, home interiors, and alternative energy solutions, the show is a must-attend for anyone serious about housing.
Whether you’re looking to buy a home, partner on a housing project, invest in real estate, or explore opportunities in the sector, AIHS 2025 is the place to be.
