The Nigerian real estate company committed to sustainable construction practices across Africa – Meet Wisdom Kwati Smart City

As cities across Africa struggle with rapid urbanization and environmental issues, the Nigerian real estate company says Wisdom Kwati Smart City is leading the way in integrating sustainable technology into real estate development across the continent.

Traditional real estate approaches often fail to meet modern environmental and technological needs, leaving a gap for forward-thinking companies to make a difference. Wisdom Kwati Smart City steps in here and offers a new vision that redefines city life through eco-friendly and technology-driven projects.

Pioneering sustainable development

With increasing awareness of the limitations of traditional real estate development, Wisdom Kwati Smart City addresses the urgent need for eco-friendly housing solutions that meet the changing needs of African cities.

The company’s mission is simple yet impressive: to deliver properties that combine comfort and environmental responsibility. As their chairman, Wisdom Kwatiit says: “Our goal is to create spaces that do more than just provide a place to live. We develop communities that make everyday life easier, healthier and more connected to nature.”

Their approach combines environmentally friendly construction techniques with systems designed to improve energy efficiency and minimize environmental impact. From smart energy management to innovative water saving practices, each project aims to benefit both residents and the planet. This commitment is reflected in the construction roadmap for their developments in Abuja, particularly in Karshi, Karsana, Idu and Sangere, Yola.

Leadership and vision

At the heart of Wisdom Kwati Smart City’s vision is Zara Kwati, its Managing Director, whose background in sustainable urban design has influenced the company’s forward-thinking approach. Under her leadership, the company has implemented a data-driven model that allows residents to track energy consumption and save costs.

This feature not only reduces their carbon footprint, but also provides significant utility savings. “We want people to be able to enjoy luxury without this being at the expense of sustainability. Every decision we make is aimed at ensuring that our developments make a positive contribution to the environment,” Zara explains.

Alongside her, Isaiah Bulus, the Chief Corporate Services Officer, has been instrumental in shaping the group’s ethical approach to real estate. He emphasizes that building trust is just as important as building houses. “We’re not just here to add technology for technology’s sake. Our focus is on delivering tangible benefits that residents will feel every day, and ensuring they see the value of our promises in their life experience,” notes Isaiah.

What distinguishes Wisdom Kwati Smart City?

Unlike conventional real estate projects, Wisdom Kwati Smart City raises the bar in African real estate. Their projects go beyond providing high-quality amenities and place a strong emphasis on green living and smart technology. Solar energy solutions, advanced air quality monitoring and waste recycling systems, together with smart home technologies, enable residents to take a more sustainable approach to daily life.

Expand throughout Africa

Wisdom Kwati Smart City does not only focus on Nigeria. Their vision extends to several African countries, including Sierra Leone, Ghana and Kenya, where they aim to replicate their sustainable urban model. By 2034, they plan to have at least two developments in each market, adapting their approach to the specific needs and regulations of each location. Gona Shelan, the CEO of Wisdom Kwati Smart City, underlines this strategy: “We’re not just exporting a blueprint; we learn from each new market and tailor our solutions to the unique demands of each community.”

Gona notes that the company has already made significant progress in discussions with government officials in Sierra Leone, with an initial project set to launch in 2025. “We want to ensure that every new community we build meets our high standards for efficiency and sustainability, even if that means adapting our methods to the realities on the ground.” he adds.

With a pan-African expansion plan in the works, the company aims to become a leading name in sustainable urban development.
