According to media reports, the 1,400 houses project includes bespoke waterfront villas, high end apartments, state-of-the-art social infrastructure, light industrial parks, commercial hubs featuring retail centres, hotels, conference facilities, and schools.

Speaking during the launch of the multi-billion project, former Prime Minister Raila Odinga revealed that the idea to develop the estate was inspired by the collapse of the molasses plant.

‘We decided that the housing project is the most ideal for this region. I negotiated with my brother Shahbal, and he agreed that we can go ahead with the project,’ Odinga told the Daily Nation.”
