The Kairos Consultants Limited has promised to bridge the housing deficit gap as it plans to build 17 blocks of five story buildings with over 100 apartments.
The Managing Director of the firm, Olagoke Fagbohun, stated this at the unveiling of the building consulting firm named Z-Korting Project, yesterday in Abuja.
Fagbohun said that the target was geared towards meeting the demands of young Nigerians who make up 60 % of the country’s populations.
“In terms of deliverables, first of all, we are starting with 17 block for the first cluster. 17 blocks of five story buildings providing approximately a 100 plus apartment so that we can launch up the first phase of this project and meet up with our demand.
“Secondly, we need media support to enlighten people about this, we can only do that with the collaboration of media houses.
“In terms of making sure people enjoy the quality of what we intend to provide, the simply thing to do is to make sure the information is out there, and what this means is that we are going to do a lot of publicity about it,” he said.
Fagbohun said that the Z-Korting Project was targeted at young fresh minds and would be built in Idu, Karmo, Jahi and Cafe City, Gwarinpa respectively.
Also, the Director of Business Development and Chief Executive Officer of Kairos Hof, Ojehomon Anetor, explained that the firm is a Dutch-Nigerian company investing in real estate and energy in both Nigeria and Netherlands.
According to Anetor, the firm had been able to design a concept that fits the cultural values of the country in terms of housing matters based on its experience of what its looks like outside Nigeria.
“From our experience of what housing looks like outside Nigeria, we have been able to design a concept that fits our cultural values.
“We have gotten a clear concept that gives an understanding of housing issue and what you need to provide for your client
“The system of housing issue in abroad is quite different from what we currently have here in Nigeria.
“We want to make sure that whoever is buying a house, is buying a house that gives them the right type of comfort and support that they need to exist, live, work, eat and play in one space,” he said.
He, also, stated that the stress and difficulties in securing housing had made so many couples to reduce the number of children they plan to have, a situation he said it was different during the period of our parents and great grand parents.
