Background

★ Asaba is located on the Western bank of River Niger, the capital of Delta State and one of the fastest growing cities in Nigeria. Greater Asaba occupies an area of about 300 square kilometers and includes neighbouring communities of Ibusa, Okpanam, Oko, Okwe and Ugbolu.

★ Asaba has a cosmopolitan population of over half a million people and is viewed as being , progressive, business friendly, hospitable and a relatively safe place to live and work. 

★ Asaba has a thriving service and commerce based economy. Apart from being the administrative hub of Delta State, it is a major shooting location for the Nigerian film industry (Nollywood) and a favored destination for business events, conventions and domestic vacations.

★ There are acute shortages and a general scarcity of prime quality land available for further real estate development in Asaba. This has led to very high prices for available land which in turn is discouraging the further growth of the key revenue generating and job creating sectors of hospitality, construction, upmarket housing, malls, services, tourism and business events.
