ASUSS and Federal Mortgage Bank to Build 350 Homes for Teachers
The Academic Union of Secondary School (ASUSS) and the Federal Mortgage Bank have formed a partnership to build over 350 housing units specifically for secondary school teachers in Taraba state. Comrade Tanko Danjum, the chairman of the Taraba state chapter of ASUSS, announced this initiative on Friday in Jalingo.
The union has secured over 200 hectares of land from the state government for the housing project. Danjum stated that the motivation behind this partnership is to enable teachers to own suitable homes upon retirement.
He noted that the Federal Mortgage Bank previously deducted funds from teachers' salaries to facilitate loan access, but many teachers were not benefiting from these loans. Following discussions with the bank, ASUSS was prompted to acquire land for the housing development, leading to the current agreement to construct the houses.
