As at 2007, we had about 4.2 with some external works.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He further explained that the project is currently in Phase one, which will have 448 two-bedroom apartments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe bigger picture is to finish the whole project which is about 110 acres which will give us about 2400 flats. But now we are doing only the phase which will give you 448 two-bedrooms, 84 one-bedroom apartments and 36 shops. Every block has got 4 shops on the ground floor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Affordable Housing Programme was launched back in September 2005.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of the project was to provide houses to low and middle-income workers of the country. It was supposed to provide accommodation for at least 12,000 families.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 63 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Sunday, 24 December 2017 Source: citifmonline.com 2017-12-24 The Affordable Housing Programme was launched back in September 2005 The project engineer for the Affordable Housing project in Koforidua, Bio Sackey, has revealed that an estimated GhC117 million will be needed to complete the whole project.
