The Chief Executive Officer of First Rotech, Mr Austin Oguejiofor, says the Abuja Airport Garden City will feature more than 3,000 modern homes with state-of-the-art facilities.
Oguejiofor said that the city, spanning 250 hectares in Gousa District, is designed to be one of the best in terms of aesthetics and quality architectural design in sub-Saharan Africa.
He made the disclosure during a site visit by the Federal Capital Development Authority’s Engineering Department team on Thursday in Abuja.
He said the aim of the project is not only to address Abuja’s housing deficit but also to provide a contemporary living environment with excellent infrastructure.
Oguejiofor stated that the project would transform Gousa District into a vibrant, well-connected community, significantly contributing to Abuja’s growth and development.
“The Abuja Airport Garden City will also feature 40 kilometres of internal roads,” he said.
He stated that the team inspected the progress of the access road, which would reduce travel time from Abuja’s city centre to the Abuja Airport Garden City by 10 minutes.
Oguejiofor said the ongoing construction of a 40-kilometre access road would significantly enhance connectivity to Gousa District, fostering rapid development in the area.
The CEO said the access road, connecting to Idu Railway Station, would provide a shorter route from districts such as Garki, Maitama, and Wuye.
Oguejiofor told newsmen that the inspection was to ascertain the level of work on the 40-kilometre access road near Idu Railway Station, leading to Abuja Airport Garden City.
