Nia Rivers State Chapter

Thank you, Proma Paints — for adding colour to TFAIR 2026! 🎨

We are deeply grateful to Proma Paints for partnering with us at TFAIR 2026 and bringing their world to our exhibition floor.
From wall finishes to specialty coatings, Proma Paints gave our delegates a full look at what their range has to offer — and there was a lot to see.

For architects, colour and finish are never an afterthought. They are the difference between a building that is merely constructed and one that is truly designed. Having Proma Paints in the room meant our members could engage directly with the products that bring their visions to life on walls, surfaces and spaces across Nigeria.

Thank you for your partnership, your presence and your passion for the craft. We hope TFAIR 2026 was as valuable for your team as it was for ours.

We look forward to seeing Proma Paints on more Nigerian projects. 🏗️✨

The conversation that had every architect in the room leaning forward. 🎙️ #
Day 3 of TFAIR 2026 gave us one of the most honest, reflective and forward-looking sessions of the entire conference — a live podcast recording that asked the question every architect in Nigeria needs to sit with:
“Practice: Where Were We, Where Are We Now, and Where Are We Headed?”
Hosted by Arc. Agim O. Hyginus, the session brought together three voices who have lived the evolution of architectural practice in Nigeria:
🎤 Chief Arc. Boma Walcott Braide FNIA KSC — Senior Architect and Podcast Speaker
🎤 Arc. Ololade Babajide-Suleiman FNIA — Author, The Naija Architect’s Guide and Podcast Speaker
🎤 Arc. Charles Ibiapuye — Podcast Speaker
From the foundations laid by the generation before us, to the realities of practice today — fees, competition, relevance, and identity — to a bold imagining of what the profession must become, this session was raw, real and necessary.
This is the kind of conversation NIARSC was built to hold. 🏛️
The mic is still going. Stay tuned. 🎧
