Significant infrastructure expansion in Abuja, including new road networks and landmark projects like the African Medical Centre of Excellence, is driving a sharp appreciation in property values across the Federal Capital Territory. While these developments have boosted connectivity and attracted real estate investment, they have also triggered speculative land pricing and steep rent hikes, forcing many residents and small businesses to relocate. Industry experts note that the current housing supply is heavily skewed toward the luxury segment, further straining affordability for low- and middle-income earners and highlighting an urgent need for policies to support affordable rental accommodation.
