Abuja: The Tinubu Stakeholders Forum (TSF) has hailed the successful raising of N100 billion by the MOFI Real Estate Investment Fund (MREIF) through its fully subscribed Series 2 issuance. In a statement signed by its Chairman, Ahmad Sajoh, and Secretary, Afolabi Josiah, the forum described the achievement as a significant milestone attained through private sector participation.
According to News Agency of Nigeria, the fund is a substantial step highlighting the pragmatic economic policies of President Bola Tinubu’s administration. This achievement is part of MREIF’s broader N250 billion pilot fundraising initiative aimed at facilitating accessible housing finance solutions for Nigerians.
The forum noted that the strong institutional investor confidence in the issuance, as demonstrated by its AAA rating from Agusto and Co. and an AA rating from Global Credit Rating (GCR), reinforces the credibility and effectiveness of the fund’s structure. The Tinubu administration’s approach to housing development extends beyond merely constructing houses; it focuses on creating a sustainable financial ecosystem that enables Nigerians to acquire homes at affordable credit rates.
By leveraging private sector investments, the federal government is strategically optimizing resources while ensuring that public funds previously earmarked for social housing can now be redirected toward other critical capital projects that drive national growth and development. The initiative aligns with President Tinubu’s broader economic agenda of fostering an enabling environment for investment, financial inclusion, and infrastructural development.
The forum reiterated its confidence in the President’s strategic policies and reaffirmed unwavering support for the administration’s vision of economic transformation and national prosperity. The group also urged continued collaboration between the government, private sector, and financial institutions to sustain this momentum, ensuring that more Nigerians can benefit from affordable housing opportunities.
