Chief Executive Officer of Lekki Gardens, Richard Nyong, said he came into the real estate sector on the conviction that government alone cannot fix the nation’s housing deficit.
Speaking at the occasion of his 40th birthday anniversary, the real estate developer, who has built over 15,000 houses in 10 years of his operation across Lagos, Abuja, Ogun and Port Harcourt, said that this belief stimulated by the challenges he witnessed around while growing up in Lagos gave him the impetus.
According to him, from consulting for land owners and helping them find buyers, he said he was able to gather money from commissions to move into development.
“From consulting and helping land owners find buyers to buying my own land with commissions gathered and then to eventually move into development, my trajectory was one of incremental growth, clarity of purpose and sheer consistency.”
The Lekki Gadens boss said he took the plunge in the real estate industry acquiring and selling lands which eventually metamorphosed into property development and launching his premiere project in Ajah, a fast rising area in Lagos.
“With captivating marketing campaigns, bold statements and crystal clear results, and a perfect blend of luxury and affordability I made a bold statement in the sector,” he said.
