AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Housing & Land: A Zimbabwean influencer’s Cape Town home tour sparked backlash as South Africans questioned how a foreign national can afford an upmarket property while locals struggle with access and affordability. Infrastructure Delivery: Nigeria’s Presidency blamed the Benin-Agbor-Asaba expressway contractor for the road’s failure and gridlock, while a separate NDDC-led intervention aims to rehabilitate failed highway sections linking Edo and Delta. Urban Planning & Growth: Ethiopia’s Gode City could see major industrial investment (fertiliser and an oil refinery), but analysts warn growth will only work if housing, land systems, utilities and services are prepared ahead of demand. Real Estate Finance & Assets: Nigeria’s EFCC says it has forfeited over $500m in cash and assets to government in three years, using civil forfeiture to recover suspected proceeds of crime. Construction Sector Watch: ASUU began an indefinite strike at more than 20 state universities, adding pressure to education and campus infrastructure timelines. Energy Assets: Nigeria launched a Renewable Asset Management Company to maintain publicly funded solar hybrid projects after only 3 of 7 were found usable.
