MEC Tasneem Motara hands over 5 houses in Obed “Mthombeni” Nkosi Mega Project in Sedibeng
Yesterday, Gauteng MEC for Human Settlements, Tasneem Motara, handed over 5 newly completed houses to beneficiaries at the Obed “Mthombeni” Nkosi Mega Project in the Sedibeng Corridor.
This landmark project features a mixed-use residential development with both standalone RDP houses and walk-up residential units. The Obed “Mthombeni” Nkosi Mega Project is part of the broader Sedibeng Corridor development, which aims to provide quality housing and integrated human settlements for residents in the region.
MEC Motara noted that the project has already allocated 4,977 housing units to qualifying beneficiaries, marking significant progress in delivering much-needed accommodation.
“It has been a long process to get to this point, but I am extremely pleased with the progress we are making in the Sedibeng Corridor,” said MEC Motara.
“The mixed-use nature of this development, combining freestanding RDP homes and multi-story residential units, demonstrates our commitment to providing a diverse range of housing options that cater to the varied needs of our community. The handover ceremony was preceded by a bilateral meeting between MEC Motara and all the municipal Mayors and MMCs responsible for Human Settlements in the Sedibeng region. This collaborative approach ensures that the Sedibeng Corridor project is being implemented in a coordinated manner, leveraging the resources and expertise of all stakeholders. By working together with our municipal partners, we are able to deliver quality, affordable housing solutions that improve the lives of our residents,” added MEC Motara.
“I am confident that the Obed ‘Mthombeni’ Nkosi Mega Project, and the broader Sedibeng Corridor development, will continue to make a significant impact in addressing the housing needs of our communities.”
“The Gauteng Department of Human Settlements remains committed to driving the development of integrated, sustainable human settlements that provide access to economic opportunities, social amenities and a improved quality of life for all residents,” Motara concluded.
