- Edo Woos Investors to Emotan Gardens
The list of subscribers to the Emotan Gardens estate is growing following the Edo State Government’s provision of infrastructure in the estate, the developer, Mixta Nigeria has said.
The Head, Business Development and Sales, Mixta Nigeria, MrKorede Lawrence, who disclosed this on the sidelines of the four-day Alaghodaro Summit, held in Benin City, recently, said the infrastructure included link roads and the guarantee of requisite land documents.
He stated that a number of subscribers to the estate said that they were confident that the state government’s resolve to reconstruct the link roads to the estate and the newly introduced electronic Certificate of Occupancy were huge attractions to the project.
He said, “We are very impressed by the patronage. The people said they are moved to commit to the project because the government has assured to construct the link roads to the estate.
“It is fantastic to see the government of the day being accountable. It is particularly refreshing that the last three days have been about feedback. Government wants to hear what the people are feeling. It is evident in the way things have gone. Today’s event, which is the main occasion, recorded impressive turnout. The people were so organised and they were given an avenue to express themselves.”
He said his firm was pleased to be part of Alaghodaro summit, with Sterling Bank as its platinum partner, adding that the kinds of products that Mixta Nigeria was offering, would provide affordable housing to Edo people.
Lawrence added, “People within Edo state have come here to see what the government of the day is doing. So, yes, we are pleased about the turnout of events.
“We have seen steady patronage since we have been in Benin City; because of their previous experience with past administrations as regards housing, there have been some skepticism, but Emotan Gardens is one of the projects that have come to stay. People have gone to the site and are impressed.”
