REDAN Breaks Ground on 2,400-Unit Smart Estate in Abuja, Tackling 14.9m Deficit
The Real Estate Developers Association of Nigeria (REDAN) has broken ground on The Embassy, a 2,400-unit solar-powered smart estate in Abuja’s Wuse/Wasa district, aimed at scaling private-sector delivery against national housing gaps.

Private-sector acceleration of mass housing gained fresh momentum as REDAN Vice President (FCT) and Crown Allied Global Realty CEO, Dr. Gbadewole Kayode, led the official groundbreaking for The Embassy.
Positioned to inject 2,400 quality smart residential units into the Federal Capital Territory, the development directly confronts Nigeria’s official 14.98 million housing deficit. Backed by authentic FCDA Certificate of Occupancy documentation, the master plan integrates 100% solar power infrastructure, dedicated electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, and a 20-hectare commercial/hospitality district.
To bridge affordability gaps for middle- and low-income demographics, the deployment features structured installment frameworks, allowing part payments scaled across six months alongside block-flat mortgage integration. The project is projected to generate over 3,000 direct and indirect construction-phase jobs.
Real estate market analysts note that micro-location selection targeting 15-to-20-minute transit radiuses into Abuja’s central business district reflects a broader developer shift toward utility-dense, energy-autonomous suburban corridors.
