In an interview on YouTube with Steven Ndukwu, Mr Neil Oku said that the ideal people he had in mind who would occupy the homes that he builds are business people who are well integrated into the community.

Watch a video of the interview below.

The idea was to have businesspeople easily move around and interact with the many businesses within the enclave while having the freedom to enjoy themselves without travelling long distances.

All the houses in the gated communities are smart homes, which means the house is automated and powered by voice activations, among others. Each property is going for $750,000.

The developer describes his properties with the term "Afromodish". He says it means taking the modern approach to African living. Many netizens praised the developer for his brilliant work. YEN.com.gh samples some comments below.
