Enugu State Governor, Dr. Peter Mbah, praised Architect Chibuikem Onyekachi Emmanuel, CEO of Powell Homes and Shelters Ltd., for his role in inspiring young entrepreneurs through enterprise. At the Hosana Estate commissioning in Enugu East, Mbah called for private-sector investments in housing to support government's development goals.
The investment, made by a fellow Enugu native, demonstrated the determination needed for state growth. Mbah reassured investors and residents of a secure environment for businesses to thrive, urging developers to collaborate with estate management for effective administration. He promised continued infrastructure expansion and progress in addressing unmet infrastructure needs.
Enugu East Local Government Chairman, Beloved-Dan Anike, highlighted the dualisation of the road as a catalyst for the area's urban development, calling the Hosana Estate project a "future goldmine." Traditional ruler Igwe Emma Ugwu welcomed the investment, emphasizing it aligned with the state's development agenda. The estate includes modern facilities like internal roads, drainage, electricity, recreational areas, a football pitch, and a children's playground.
Powell Homes and Shelters aims to develop affordable homes and explore innovative financing models, with plans to expand its projects across Nigeria where there is demand.
