According to the organisers, the dialogue aims to produce actionable policy recommendations. A comprehensive policy brief capturing key insights and stakeholder input will be published and submitted to relevant government ministries and regulatory agencies.
The event underscores growing concern over the vulnerability of Nigeria’s real estate sector to fraudulent practices, and the need for coordinated policy and legal interventions to restore investor confidence and protect citizens.
