In a strategic move to bolster its leadership, ITech Homes and Properties has announced the appointment of Dr. Abiso Kabir as a Non-Executive Director.
Dr. Kabir, a respected entrepreneur and economist, brings a wealth of experience to the company. As Chairman of Wal-Wanne Group, he has shown exceptional leadership in promoting economic diversification and youth empowerment in Nigeria.

Dr. Kabir oversees extensive rice cultivation across Northern Nigeria, including the states of Yobe, Bauchi, Gombe, Adamawa, Jigawa, Plateau, and Kaduna. His initiatives have provided employment for over 13,000 youths in the region. Despite challenges such as the insurgency in North Eastern Nigeria, Dr. Kabir’s mechanized farming projects have continued to thrive.
Dr. Kabir’s credentials are impressive. He holds a doctorate in Entrepreneurship Management from Ballsbridge University and is a Fellow of various chartered institutions both within Nigeria and internationally. He has served on several committees and attended numerous national and international seminars and workshops. His philanthropic endeavors are equally commendable, particularly through his foundation, the Walwanne Foundation, which supports Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Northern Nigeria.
Industry stakeholders have welcomed the appointment, viewing Dr. Kabir’s experience and expertise as significant assets to ITech Homes and Properties. The board is confident that Dr. Kabir’s diverse background and substantial experience will provide invaluable insights, driving the company’s growth and reinforcing its commitment to excellence.
