FHFL hands over 50 houses to families of fallen military personnel

Family Homes Funds Limited (FHFL) has formally handed over 50 units of two-bedroom detached, energy-efficient bungalows to the spouses of Nigeria’s fallen military personnel. 

The housing intervention, facilitated through partnership with Post-Service Housing Development Limited (PHDL), reflects a shared commitment to providing safe, dignified, and sustainable homes for the families of military personnel who paid the ultimate sacrifice in service to the nation.

This is just as the renewed effort to support the families of military personnel who lost their lives in the line of duty has received a major boost with the delivery of the 50 newly completed affordable homes in Oyo State.

It is instructive to note that the remarkable move underscores growing collaboration between public institutions to address both housing needs and social welfare.

The housing estate, located at Idi-Ape, Akobo in Lagelu Local Government Area of Oyo State, was officially transferred to the families of the fallen heroes during a handover ceremony on July 10, 2026.

The transfer of the homes was perfected at the headquarters of the Post-Service Housing Development Limited in Asokoro in Abuja.

The initiative is designed to provide permanent housing for families of military personnel who paid the ultimate price in service to the country, while advancing efforts to improve access to affordable and sustainable housing across Nigeria.

According to the officials of Family Homes Funds, the project reflects a collaborative commitment to ensuring that the families of fallen service personnel have access to safe, decent and dignified accommodation.

The formal transfer of the completed estate was witnessed by representatives of Family Homes Funds Limited, Post-Service Housing Development Limited of the Nigerian Army, National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI), project developer, and other stakeholders involved in the execution of the scheme.

During the unique ceremony, the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Family Homes Funds Limited, Abdul-Mutallab Mukhtar, formally handed over the completed housing units to the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Post-Service Housing Development Limited, Major General Isaiah Allison, who received the estate on behalf of the organisation.

The 50 housing units were built with energy-efficient features aimed at promoting environmental sustainability, reducing energy consumption, and lowering the cost of living for beneficiaries while providing comfortable and durable homes.

The project forms part of broader efforts by Family Homes Funds to expand access to affordable housing through partnerships with government institutions and other stakeholders.

Beyond addressing accommodation needs, the intervention is expected to provide long-term stability for the beneficiaries while recognising the sacrifices made by members of the Armed Forces who lost their lives in the service of the nation.

The FHFL said the initiative aligns with its mandate of supporting inclusive housing delivery and contributing to national development through innovative housing solutions capable of strengthening communities and helping to reduce Nigeria’s housing deficit.

Family Homes Funds also reaffirmed its commitment to working with strategic partners to develop sustainable housing projects that improve living standards and extend homeownership opportunities to more Nigerians, particularly vulnerable groups requiring targeted support.
