5 © ACJC Geography 2023 9173/JC1 Mid-Year Assessment Resource 4 for Question 1 Details about the new public housing project for slum dwellers in Kibera, Nairobi The government is to put up more than 3,000 housing units in Soweto in Kibera, Nairobi, as it embarks on the second phase of the slum-upgrading project in the area. The 3,072 houses comprising one, two and three rooms each will come with a kitchen, toilet and bathroom. They are scheduled for completion in two years and will cost USD 46 million. Each of the houses is sold at a subsidised rate, as the government states t hat they are not looking to make a profit but to recover construction costs. In the just-concluded phase, a one- room unit was sold for USD4000; a two -room unit for USD7000 and a three -room unit for USD10000. Occupants have up to 25 years to pay for the houses at an annual three per cent interest rate. ‘We have done a socio -economic study of the area, so we understand the incomes of the people. Based on that, we sit down and design with them and the numbers are based on the level of affordability after we discuss with the Kibera people themselves,’ the housing minister said. The plan includes having buildings as high as 10 floors. The housing minister said that they will fit them with strong lifts, which will be properly managed. The project will also include a commercial centre, a youth centre and hundreds of market stalls for the residents to conduct business.
