Army Chief Waidi Shaibu Launches Luxury Housing Estate

Lieutenant General Waidi Shaibu, the Chief of Army Staff, commissioned the Nigerian Army Welfare Limited by Guarantee (NAWLG) Luxury Estate in Yaba, Lagos. He emphasized the importance of home ownership and financial planning for military personnel.

This initiative aims to provide long-term financial security and facilitate a smooth transition into retirement for both serving and retired officers, as well as civilian subscribers. General Shaibu noted that frequent operational deployments often prevent military personnel from securing permanent family residences during active service.

The mixed military-civilian housing model is designed to promote social integration and strengthen civil-military relations, preparing retiring personnel for community life post-service. He expressed gratitude to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his ongoing support and urged the NAWLG management to uphold transparency, accountability, and regulatory standards to protect subscriber investments.
