Addressing the Housing Deficit: Developer Seeks Government Support to Tackle the Challenge

The Managing Director of Kemsan Acres Global Limited, Mr. Oluwaseun Owoseni, has called for support from the government at all levels toward tackling the problem of the housing deficit in Nigeria. Owoseni stated this during the company’s activities to mark its fourth-anniversary celebration in Ibadan. The company, a real estate firm, had distributed food and clothing to no fewer than 500 less privileged as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
 
He said the real estate industry was an important sector in Nigeria that needed government attention. “The real estate industry is a sector that the government at all levels should look into. We have the problem of housing deficit in Nigeria.“We are appealing to the government to provide an enabling environment for real estate industry to thrive in the country. We need the basic social amenities such as good road networks and stable power supply,” he said. Owoseni urged the people to trust the company in terms of integrity, genuineness and transparency, saying the CSR was a way of giving back to society.He said that the company had in the last four years, been converting rural areas to habitable urban settlements.“We believe that if one gives to the society, the person would get back from the society. What has brought us this far is what we have received from the society. We believe that the basic need of everyone is food, clothing, and shelter.“ As a real estate firm, we provide shelter and we are here today to give food and clothes. We are reaching out to over 500 persons,” he said.
 

Owoseni explained further that the firm would launch Abuja branch this week, stating that they have branches in Ibadan, Ado-Ekiti, Akure and Abeokuta.“One of the major challenges the real estate industry is that the people believe that it is a scam. Our company sells real value of people’s money. It is actually a big challenge for us in the industry because people believe that real estate firms allocate on paper without getting the value of their money,” he said.The Chairman of the planning committee for the fourth anniversary, Mr. Faith Oyebanji, said the firm’s achievements have been massive, as it provided accommodation for over 20,000 residents in Ibadan.He said that the company had been establishing strong relationships with governments in every state they have branches. “We have experienced tremendous improvements in our services in the last four years. We started so little but our tentacle has been extended to both Nigeria and abroad.“We have been able to provide accommodation for over 20, 000 residents in Ibadan. We don’t defraud people as we give 26/36 months planning payment for people,” he said.“We have been associating with the state governments of where we have our branches. We can’t do without them,” he said.An actor and ambassador of the company, Mr. Kolawole Ajeyemi, said he accepted the offer to be the brand ambassador of the firm because he knew Owoseni and trusted him.“I don’t want to tarnish my own image. I don’t involve in anything fraudulent and I have been working with them for a year. I remain committed to the brand and I advise them to maintain their integrity,” he said.
