“The first three years you know we will give the tenants the contract for three years. within those periods we hope that they would be able to either have enough money top move out and start their own or build their own properties otherwise we will give them another three years.”

Naleba adds that they will give the families a maximum of 6 years however taking into consideration of the high cost of living, they are providing extra services to assist the tenants to save money as well.

He also acknowledges the fact that there has been families who have been residing in the flats for more than 25 years.
