The Federal Ministry of Housing and Urban Development wishes to categorically inform the general public that it has not appointed or given sale rights to any company or consultant to coordinate the sale of the 753 houses seized by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), linked to the former CBN governor, Godwin Emefiele. This was contained in a statement signed by Badamasi S. Haiba, Director, Press, and Public Relations.
The statement reads: “The disclaimer became necessary on the backdrop of a claim by a company named Pink Synergy Global Company Limited, that it has been appointed as official auctionaires for the sales of the 753 units houses by the Federal government.
“The ministry learnt that the company has written proposal and introduction letters to unsuspecting Nigerians and agencies asking them to purchase an expression of interest form to purchase the houses.
“The copy of the Pink Synergy Global Company Limited letter sighted by the ministry has one Yashim Kejang, Chief Executive, as the signatory.
“For the avoidance of doubt, no sales of the 753 units houses have commenced by the Ministry.
“The Ministry is informing the public that it will give a clear and adequate announcement regarding the sale as well as strategy outlined for the sales of the houses, as directed by His Excellency President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“The public is advised to direct all inquiries to the ministry through the departments of Public Building and Housing Development and Press and Public Relations for clarification before committing any resources,” it also added. .
