Work will start immediately, and we aim to have the project ready for the foundation stone laying by next week.”
Contractor Kenneth Owigo from PADAA Enterprises Limited emphasized the commitment to executing the project to government standards.
He outlined the initial steps, including planning, surveying, and fencing, before the foundation stone is laid.
Owigo detailed, “The project will consist of one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom houses, catering to affordable and social housing needs.
Additionally, there will be shops incorporated within the 320-unit development.”
