VICE President Kembo Mohadi says government is targeting to deliver 200 thousand housing units by 2023.<\/p>\n
Vice President Kembo Mohadi this Saturday embarked on a tour of some ongoing housing projects being implemented by government and financial institutions in Chinhoyi.<\/p>\n
The Batanai housing projects are being implemented through funding by the National Building Society, Met Bank and NMB, while government is also implementing the Crownlands housing project for civil servants in the same town.<\/p>\n
Vice president Mohadi described as critical the need for provision of adequate, decent and affordable housing.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs the people\u2019s government we realise that the quest for provision of adequate, decent, affordable and sustainable housing and social amenities is critical. We are targeting to deliver 200 000 housing units by year 2023 and half a million units by 2030. This will be achieved through concerted efforts by multi stakeholders within the housing value chain. We all have the responsibility to work extra hard in transforming the ambience and aesthetics of our cities, towns and growth points to ensure conformity with acceptable standards,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
National Housing and Social Amenities Minister, Cde Daniel Garwe civil servants will be given priority in the allocation of housing units.
\n\u201cAdditionally, civil service housing shall be given priority across the board. A case in point is the ministry\u2019s intention to ensure completion of the 677 high to medium density stands at Crownlands, a government-initiated housing project with a view to ensure beneficiary occupation on a coat recovery basis,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The Minister of State for Mashonaland West Provincial Affairs, Cde Mary Mliswa said the delivery of affordable and decent is a priority for the second republic.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe delivery of comfortable housing is at the centre of HIS Excellency President Mnangagwa\u2019s vision and this is evidenced by the creation of the ministry of national housing and social amenities,\u201d she said.
\nMeanwhile, Vice president Mohadi and Minister Garwe made an undertaking to deal decisively with land barons selling state land to unsuspecting home-seekers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
