LIVE | A look at the Saglemi Housing Project, with its rows of affordable residential buildings stretching across the site in Prampram, Greater Accra Region. Initiated in 2012 under President John Mahama, the project was originally designed to deliver 5,000 affordable homes but was scaled down to 1,506 units. For years, the site remained largely uninhabited due to missing infrastructure, including water and electricity. In 2024, government selected Quarm-LMI Consortium as preferred developer to complete the project. The current administration has since been reviewing the arrangement, with the Works and Housing Ministry saying it is finalising contracts to complete Saglemi alongside the Kpong Affordable Housing Project, as part of efforts to address Ghana’s housing deficit of about 1.83 million units.
