This, he said, was something the President has longed to be a part of his legacy. According to Ken Ofori-Atta, government is still devising strategic means to end the rising housing problems Ghanaians face. Also, the Ministry of Finance and the Works and Housing Ministry have teamed up to set up National Mortgage Scheme (NMS) and the Affordable Housing REITs (Rent-to-own) Scheme to end the country’s housing deficit by 40% in the next four years. We have faith and God willing if we are asked to be back for another four years, housing will be a critical contribution to the legacy that the president aims for,” Mr. Ofori-Atta said as quoted by the BFTonline.
