Nairaland / General / Asokoro Island by Asapmuller(m): 12:25pm On Sep 30, 2014
After three years of careful, intensive and
extensive preliminary works involving the
design of its master-plan, Asokoro Island
Limited unveils what is unarguably Abuja’s
novel and exclusive destination offering
uncommon opportunities for luxury living,
business and leisure.
Known as Asokoro Island, this 21st Century
city that derives its name from the accident of
its location is nestled immediately beneath
Aso Rock and surrounded by the shores of the
Pendam Lake which gives it bespoke natural
ambience with a lush green façade.
Consistent with modern city development,
Asokoro Island incorporates residential,
commercial and leisure facilities that satiate
hunger for quality living and desire for
business and relaxation in a secure, serene,
clean, eco-friendly, energy efficient and
sustainable environment.
Suleiman Yahyah, the chairman of Asokoro
Island Limited, explained to a select group of
journalists in Abuja that “from the original
vision, we seek to position Asokoro Island as
a unique integrated development that will
feature its eco-friendly credentials ideal for
private, business, diplomatic residence and for
work, play and leisure”, adding that the island,
which has Julian Zapata, a leading Spanish
Architect, as Project Manager, is a new way of
living in the present while looking at the
future.
At its residential section, the Island which sits
on approximately 60 hectares of land with an
estimated cost of $1 billion, comprises
different house-typologies such as apartments
and villas, and according to Yahyah, each of
the five apartment buildings is designed with
fresh and elegant architectural style. They
benefit from private balconies, mezzanines
and floor-to-ceiling windows, beautifully
appointed to allow for the most spectacular
views of the Pendam Marina, while each block
has its own swimming pool and sun terrace.
The Island presents 40 individually designed
luxury villas ranging from duplex houses to
sprawling three-storey residences, each
featuring bespoke architectural details that
meet the unique needs and desires of its
prospective occupants. They comprise golf
view villas, royal villas which are facing the
lake; presidential villas which are like
presidential suites, and diplomatic villas for
ambassadors.
The commercial and work section presents
hotels, offices, shopping malls, business and
primary schools. “Abuja was planned to
provide commercial buildings only at the
central business districts and so many
residential buildings are being converted to
commercial buildings. Here, we are planning
purpose-built commercial buildings beside
residential buildings to provide flexibility of
living”, Yahyah said, disclosing that their plan
is to provide 150,000 office spaces of
international standard.
Apart from the six-star hotel planned for the
Island, he said that they would also be
providing four-star and five-star hotels,
explaining that whereas the four-star would
offer 250 rooms, the five-star would offer 100
rooms with conference facility for 500 people.
For leisure and relaxation in the Island,
provision has been made for a 9-hole golf
course, a theatre and a museum which would
provide information on Nigeria’s cultural
diversity. “Asokoro Island is designed to offer
extensive leisure opportunities, from a lush 9-
hole golf course surrounded by tropical flora
to the picturesque marina on Pendam Lake.
Nature enthusiasts will delight in its botanical
garden, while those in need of retail therapy
can enjoy the elite brands and boutiques of its
mall. Children are well-catered for too, with a
water-park, interactive zoo and an aquarium
offering thrilling family fun and a multi-screen
cinema showing all the latest blockbuster
movies”, Yahyah assured.
Because of its complex structure, the Island
would be delivered in four phases that will run
through six years. The first phase estimated to
cost $250 million is expected to be delivered
in 18-24 months. It involves the building of
the bridge which will be one of the access
routes to the Island, the apartments and the
basic infrastructure such as power, water,
sewage plant etc.
A major highlight of this development, which
infrastructure will be handled by Dantata and
Sawoe, is the massive direct and indirect jobs
it will generate from the construction stage to
the services to be provided by the hotels,
restaurants, malls among others. The
chairman estimated that, cumulatively, about
10,000 jobs would be provided with over 3,000
living and working in the Island.
He disclosed that funding for the project was
a combination of equity and debt, pointing out
that interests in the project have been received
from private equity investors and foreign
institutional investors. “In the first phase of
the project, we have 180 units of apartments
and so far we have got about 25 percent off-
takers who have made commitments even
before the pre-launch that will happen in few
days”, he enthused.
“We are confident that the wheel will not be
reversed on this project; we are moving
forward; the investment is good for Abuja and
also good for Nigeria. What we are doing is in
line with the transformation agenda of the
federal government and, as democracy
continues to get stronger, we are hopeful that
all those yester-years activities that were
negatively disruptive will not happen again”,
he emphasized.
