Centenary City Abuja Nigeria’s “smart City” (pictures) by Rikidony(m): 12:58pm On Oct 25, 2014
Abuja Centenary City is a city being planned as part of the Nigeria
centenary celebration.
The centenary city according to the
Secretary to the Federal Government, Senator Pius Anyim, would
be modeled after cities such as Dubai, Monaco and Singapore, to
serve as a political and economic tool for securing foreign
investment.

"The idea is to get a better city than the present Abuja where
people will not need to provide basic amenities by themselves."
said the Nigerian President Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.

It is expected that the Abuja Centenary City will be the financial
hub of the capital of Nigeria.

An efficient business enclave will position Nigeria as a key player
in the global financial arena.

The new city will be sustainable because it balances economic,
social, cultural and environmental factors to produce harmonic
development.

The Abuja Centenary City is part of the celebration of the
Independence Centenary of Nigeria, therefore, certain buildings
and locations will be identified as venues and will be included in
the program of the celebration.

The Centenary City is a project of the future. It will be a high
profitable entity for the government agencies, investors and
users because of its designation as a “duty free zone” and “tax
shelter” with special banking regulations.

The new city will be one of the most powerful catalyst that will
trigger opportunities for better social and economic development
in Nigeria.

The decision makers of Nigeria have provided excellent
conditions and land for development, now it is up for the
investors and technicians to perform the highest quality work to
make this project a reality.

Anyim gave indication that the project site is located near the
Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja and that it is
estimated at a total cost of $4bn, which will invariably be bought
over by a parent company that would manage the entire
construction projects.

SUCCESS FACTORS
Features that have contributed to the success of other cities of
this nature included:

Trade Free Zone
* Duty Free Regime

* Tax Holiday

* Chartered Status

* Offshore Status

* Outstanding Infrastructure and secured business
environment

* Expanded and efficient transport services especially Air Services

* Secured Environment etc.

Above all, total Government commitment to provide an
environment conducive for investment environment in the City is
imperative for the success of this important initiative. If this
framework is approved, we shall be encouraged to put forward
formal requests for necessary approvals in this regard

Even if buhari doesnt follow up, the city has been given to Eagle hill( people who built part of dubai) and construction has began as we speak. its a private funded project so government doesnt have a hand again in it until its ready
