Kuni Tyessi in Abuja Real estate stakeholders are pushing for deeper private-sector collaboration to close Nigeria’s growing housing gap, as they flagged off work on a new 50-hectare residential project
In Abuja, Nigeria's capital, private real estate stakeholders are collaborating to address the nation's housing deficit, which is estimated to be over 20 million units. A new 50-hectare residential project, Amani Estate, has kicked off its construction in Kansas, Abuja, a partnership between Kopitar, OMEC Properties and Gynosure Realty Ltd. The developers believe private capital and partnerships will be crucial in bridging the housing gap.
Amani Estate will offer a range of housing options, including 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments, 3- and 4-bedroom terrace duplexes, semi-detached and standalone homes. The developers aim to create a community that provides not just shelter, but a lifestyle, with green spaces, recreational facilities and commercial areas to encourage community living and reduce the need for residents to travel for basic services.
