The Asokoro district is popularly known as the most exclusive and safe home for top Nigerian government officials and politicians. The major highlight of Asokoro is the Aso Rock, Presidential villa.
This district is undoubtedly one of the most secure places to reside, and it is reserved for the crème de la crème of the society. A plot of land here could run into billions of naira, and the least price for a plot is one hundred million naira. Which could also vary based on size, location etc.
Notable buildings in the area include the “Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Secretariat, National Intelligence Agency, and World Health Organization (WHO) Office etc.
This is another major district in Abuja and it is also in the Phase 1 development plan of the Federal Capital Territory. Residents of these districts are largely government functionaries, diplomats, Ex politicians and few business moguls.
Rental properties within the area fall around six million naira for a 4 Bedroom, hence its reservation for the few percent of citizens that can afford it.
