Firm unveils housing project for 5,000 FCT households

A real estate firm, T.Pumpy Concept Nigeria Limited, has unveiled a housing project to cater for the accommodation needs of residents of the Federal Capital Territory in the spirit of the upcoming Eid-el-Fitr and Easter celebrations.

At a press conference held recently in Abuja, the Managing Director of T. Pumpy Concept, Akintayo Adaralegbe, said the lands come with a certificate of occupancy from the Federal Capital Development Authority and that buyers will commence building immediately after being allocated either 500, 300 or 200 square metres for approved designs.

He said, T.Pumpy Concept Nigeria Limited is a real estate company that has been around for almost a decade now. By next year, February 1, we’ll be celebrating 10 years of existence. We’ve been doing a lot in the city of Abuja. We have over 70 estates standing, and we have a lot of people that are staying. We’ve done a lot, and we are still doing more in the city of Abuja. We’ve gone beyond Abuja.

“We have spread our tentacles to Ekiti, Oyo, and Kwara. We’re currently working on our Ogun State office. We started the journey very small; from a 20-unit estate in Lugbe, Abuja, we have 35 estates standing in the area now. We have over 70 estates in the FCT, and we are still counting. With regard to the Mega City project, in 2024, we started moving from the suburbs to the real Abuja city. We have our estate in Guzape, Katampe Extension, Maitama, Karasana, Kaba, and some other parts of Abuja. Only in 2024 were we able to do almost 3,500 units, and we discovered we can do more, hence the Mega City project.

“It is called mega because it’s a very big expanse of land that we are using for the mega city. It is located in the heart of Abuja, in Apo by Gude. The document is on E-13 of Abuja. So, with that, you will know it’s not in the suburb of Abuja; it’s in the heart of Abuja.

“It’s going to be the biggest of our projects for now because we’ve tried to get some consultants into the project. We’ve gotten some consultants. We’ve invited those that really designed the Abuja Master Plan. Some of them have retired now from service, but we know we need them.”

Adaralegbe emphasised the company’s commitment to aligning with government plans, stating that the company strictly adhered to the government’s established regulations while introducing innovations to the housing project.

He continued, “Our infrastructure will be on a massive scale, creating an estate that will become a destination in itself, one that people will visit just to witness its unique design. We are planning features that have yet to be seen anywhere else. I was travelling around when I conceived this idea of a megacity. I’ve been travelling around to see what is happening in the other part of the world and to blend it with our own plan. Infrastructure is going to differentiate our mega city from any other estate and from any other one we have done.

“If you are talking about land and landed property in Abuja, it has to be titled. The megacity lands come with a C of O title from FCDA. We are not dealing with R of O or any other thing. It’s an FCDA title. From what we’ve been doing before, we discovered the title is the land, and the land is the title. We’re coming with the highest title of it all, which is the C of O.

“With this, there is no ground rent, C of O payment or anything. We’re having a pre-launch promo of 17 days in the spirit of Ramadan and Easter, from March 31 to April 17. We’re doing the groundbreaking in November this year.”
