Saglemi housing project

The Quarm-LMI Consortium, the government-appointed developer overseeing the Saglemi Housing Project, has pledged to complete more than 1,500 housing units within 400 days, with plans to sell them to the public.

In a media interview following a courtesy call on the Ningo Traditional Council, Kofi Adabor Ofori-Amanfo, Managing Director of the consortium, outlined the ambitious timeline and the steps being taken to ensure the project meets the highest safety standards.

He revealed that structural integrity tests would be conducted on the existing buildings to assess their stability before any properties are sold.

"Tentatively, we are looking at around 400 days to make sure that the whole place is completed for sale to people. Currently, we inherited the shell structures. And some of them will go through structural integrity tests to make sure that we are not going to sell back to society something that might just break within time," Mr. Ofori-Amanfo said.

He also addressed the challenges the project has faced, including damage from severe weather conditions and flooding in some areas.

"You know, this development has been left for more than seven years. A lot of them have gone through bad weather conditions. Some areas had some flooding that is prone to the environment there. So we need to do a lot of re-engineering over there," he explained.
