Doha-based humanitarian organization Qatar Charity has announced a $10 million investment plan for an integrated housing project in Nigeria.

The Abuja integrated housing project forms part of a major effort to scale up sustainable development and social welfare projects across the country.

Details of the strategic expansion were finalized during a courtesy visit by Nigeria’s Ambassador to Qatar, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, to Qatar Charity’s headquarters in Doha, where he held formal talks with Executive Vice President and Global Programs Officer Nawaf Abdullah Al-Hammadi.

The meeting centered on expanding Qatar Charity’s long-term development presence in Nigeria, prioritizing sustainable community interventions over short-term relief.

Central to this plan is the Gaduwa housing development in Abuja, which will feature residential units alongside an on-site health clinic and a school.

Welcoming the investment, Prof. Yakubu assured the organization of the Nigerian Embassy’s commitment to facilitating diplomatic clearances and inter-agency coordination to help replicate the integrated housing model across other regions in Nigeria.

“Qatar Charity has demonstrated a genuine and practical commitment to the well-being of Nigerian communities.”

“Housing alone is not enough; access to basic healthcare and education must go hand in hand. We see this partnership as contributing not only to development outcomes on the ground but also to the wider framework of Qatar–Nigeria relations,” Prof. Yakubu said.
