The Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) has reported a ₦19.5 billion operating surplus alongside a 48% increase in National Housing Fund (NHF) collections to about ₦152 billion, and is targeting a ₦750 billion recapitalisation. FMBN leadership, including Managing Director Shehu Osidi, frames these results as a basis for expanding mortgage lending and affordable housing finance in Nigeria. The recapitalisation drive is significant for Nigeria’s housing finance ecosystem, with potential implications for construction activity, banking sector exposure, and federal housing policy execution.
