Zamfara State Governor, Hon Dr Bello Mohammed MON Matawallen Maradun, Shettiman Sokoto today handed over four hundred and sixty (460) houses to the state’s chapter of the Nigeria Labor Congress NLC, for distribution to Junior workers in the State.
Speaking at a brief ceremony to hand over the housing units located along Gidan Dawa Daza bye pass Road in Gusau, the State Capital, Governor Bello Matawalle explained that this was part of his administration’s efforts to provide permanent accomodation for civil servants in the state, on owner occupier basis.
He said in addition to the provision of the completed Four hundred and sixty houses for junior civil servants, another 1000 housing units will be constructed for senior civil servants across the state, pointing out that this week, he would perform the foundation laying ceremony for the construction of the one thousand houses in Gusau, with the sole aim of addressing accommodation challenges of all categories of workers in the state.

According to the Governor, the first and second batches of the houses numbering four hundred and sixty would be distributed to workers on the owner-occupier basis with forty percent reduction of the total sum and expected to be upset in ten years.
Governor Bello Matawalle called on the leadership of the Nigeria labour Congress NLC to liaise with the office of the State Head of Service and Directorate of labour matters to ensure justice and fairness in the allocation of the houses to benefitting civil servants.
