Barely three months after delivering on the first phase of its affordable housing project, Emotan Gardens, the Governor Godwin Obaseki-led administration is upping the ante by entering into a fresh agreement for the development of high-end apartments in Benin City, the Edo state capital.
Speaking on the new Memorandum of Understanding with Iron Projects Limited, Executive Chairperson, EDPA, Isoken Omo, said that the agreement would be for the development of a high-end 18-unit apartment complex in GRA, Benin City, in continuation of the agency’s strategic plan of expanding its offerings.
“The different phases will be within GRA in Benin on a transaction-by-transaction basis. This means that after the completion and sale of the first phase, we will enter another partnership if we wish to develop more properties.”
