“I don’t want to see or hear anything about house or land agents in Ebonyi State from 2026. I am here for the good people of Ebonyi.This exploitation must stop. No agent should collect any money from anyone seeking accommodation again,”

The Assembly’s interventions are aimed at easing the burden on low- and middle-income earners struggling with the high cost of accommodation.
