| Abuja’s Centenary City Takes Shape as Construction Speeds Up |
Abuja’s ambitious Centenary City is rapidly transforming from a vision into a reality as major infrastructure projects gain significant speed. Under the direction of Centenary City PLC, the development has hit high gear with Julius Berger Nigeria Plc spearheading critical road construction—including a 4.3km primary access road—while the renowned firm Dar Al-Handasah manages the technical engineering designs.
The project is more than just a construction site; it represents a collective push toward a modern, sustainable future for the capital. Designed to be a pedestrian-friendly, multifunctional hub, the city is set to become a major economic engine, attracting global investment and creating thousands of jobs through its integrated "live-work-play" philosophy.
This progress has been bolstered by strong political and local backing. FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has signaled his support for the initiative, alongside the Toge community, whose cooperation has been essential to keeping the project on track. With foundation works solidifying and roads opening up, Centenary City is officially moving past the planning phase to redefine the Abuja skyline.
