Rwanda Development Board (RDB) CEO Jean-Guy Afrika on Monday launched construction of the Ramba Hills investment project, valued at $80 million (about 115.7 billion Rwandan francs), which is expected to transform the skyline of Kigali.
The project is located in Kacyiru Sector, Gasabo District, near King Faisal Hospital, adjacent to Vision City and the Kigali Golf Course.
According to the master plan, the development will feature two high-rise towers, several mid-rise buildings, landscaped gardens, a swimming pool, large parking areas, and extensive internal roads.
On one side of the development, ten attached residential units will be built near the golf course, each with its own garden and internal roads. On the other side, two high-rise towers are planned—one with 26 floors, the other with 24. One of these towers will host office space, while the other will house apartments.
Additionally, four mid-rise residential buildings are planned, with floor counts of 16, 12, and 10, providing a variety of housing options for the market.
Ramba Real Estate said the construction of Ramba Hills will take four years. Within the next 17 months, residential units are expected to be completed, apartments will be ready within two and a half to three years, and office spaces will be delivered by the fourth year.
At the groundbreaking ceremony, RDB CEO Jean-Guy Afrika emphasized that while projects like Ramba Hills are private investments, they play a crucial role in building the city the country envisions and advancing Rwanda’s 2050 vision and the Second National Strategy for Transformation (NST2).
Afrika added that the Rwandan government is committed to supporting investments from concept to execution, ensuring transparency and partnership with private developers.
