Prophet Magaya launches housing project

Government has applauded a Harare-based cluster home project which is constructing homes in the city saying this will go a long way in fulfilling government's thrust in providing housing to the people.

Planet Africa Business Forum, an initiative of the Prophetic Healing and Deliverance Ministries church launched its first phase of cluster homes project in Waterfalls where approximately 240 double storey and single storey homes are expected to be constructed by year end.

Guest of honour at the official launch of the housing project, the Minister of Local Government, Public Works and National Housing Dr Ignatius Chombo, who was represented by the Principal Director in his ministry Retired Colonel Joseph Mhakayakora pledged to provide more land to the private firm as this will help reduce the housing back log.

Planet Africa founder Prophet Walter Magaya said his church was merely taking up government's call for indigenous players to assist in implementing the country's economic blue print ZIM ASSET through employment creation, infrastructural development and provision of affordable housing.

The first phase of the project is being done in partnership with local players who include CBZ and Stanbic banks.
