Transformative Vision and Impactful Initiatives
Ambassador Alhaji Salamu Amadu continues to redefine Ghana’s real estate space through a bold vision aimed at reducing the country’s housing deficit. His long-term goal is to deliver 200,000 housing units by 2050, expanding access to decent and affordable homes for families nationwide.
This mission aligns with several flagship initiatives championed by Afro-Arab Properties and Construction, including:
Afro-Arab Affordable Housing Drive: Delivering durable, budget-friendly homes for low- and middle-income families.
Youth Empowerment and Skills Support Programs: Creating job opportunities for artisans and supporting technical training, particularly within Zongo and underserved communities.
Community Development Projects: Offering scholarships, donations, and targeted interventions that uplift vulnerable groups and promote inclusive national development.
A hallmark innovation by the company is its 5-year interest-free housing payment plan, which allows clients to purchase homes and spread payments over five years without any interest. This groundbreaking model has earned widespread praise for making homeownership more attainable for families who often face challenges accessing traditional mortgages.
Mr. Hosni Mubarack Salih noted that the award provides renewed motivation for the Afro-Arab team to intensify its mission, expand community-focused projects, and continue delivering forward-thinking solutions within the real estate sector.
Ambassador Amadu’s visionary leadership remains the driving force behind Afro-Arab Properties and Construction as the company steadily advances toward achieving its goal of building 200,000 homes and transforming lives through innovative, inclusive, and sustainable housing initiatives.
