Five private firms have made proposals to the partner government to complete the 1,506 affordable housing project in Saglemi.
Bids for the Saglemi Housing project were submitted to the Technical Working Group on July 8, 2024, according to a Ministry of Works and Housing announcement.
The Minister of Works and Housing, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, has stated that an impartial review agency will be established to evaluate proposals and advise the Ministry on the best bid.

Background
A $200 million loan was negotiated to build an initial 5,000 affordable housing units to be offered to people, but as of 2017, 1,506 homes had been erected but not finished.
The projects were halted once the NPP government assumed power, claiming legal issues.
The government has finally decided to complete the project, and in April this year, a request for proposal was issued, encouraging private sector participation.
