Earlier in his speech, the Chairman of the Board at Adozillion Homes and Realty, Dr. Sam Egube, acknowledged the challenges of rising land costs, limited access to finance, and inadequate infrastructure. He urged realtors to be intentional in their approach and collaborate effectively.
He said: “The poor is the man that thinks receiving is his only way out of poverty. Be intentional about how you collaborate with the government to drive regulation, quality, transparency, and accountability.”

He observed that Nigeria’s real sector faces a multitude of challenges that hinder its growth and stifle its ability to address the immense housing needs of its citizens including financing, land management and workforce inefficiency.
He said: “The Eklisia Realtors’ Conference stands as a testament to the company’s dedication to advancing the real estate profession and ultimately paving the way for a thriving real sector and fulfilling the dream of accessible and dignified housing for all Nigerians.”
