During the commissioning of De Mayor’s Estate and the start of Project Broadfield in Abuja, the minister explained that they’re setting up a platform for people nationwide to report housing fraud by developers. This platform will help monitor and uncover fraudulent activities, ensuring fairness and transparency in the housing market.

Users will be able to report fraud online, either anonymously or with their identity disclosed, based on their preference. The platform will gather details such as location, developer information, and evidence of fraud to help track patterns and trends in fraudulent behavior.
