President Goodluck Jonathan yesterday performed the groundbreaking ceremony of the Centenary City, Abuja. Jonathan said the $18.6 billion (N3 trillion) centenary city which would start off with 10 storey building, would be a modern city with presidential archives. The president said his administration was developing the centenary city, sited at the Airport Road, Abuja for security and free trade zone.
Describing the project which was designed to cover 1,200 hectares of land as an elegant city of hope and a symbol of national unity, the president said no other sign could demonstrate the symbol of his administration’s determination for excellence than the city which, according to him, promises a unique and global standard in real estate project.
