Major districts in Phase IV (including Jaite) have been marked for allocation through the Land Swap Initiative by FCTA.

FCTA Land Swap Initiative

In 2013, the FCT Administration started a transformation agenda to grant a percentage of land (not below 60%) in a district to private developers. Abuja Infrastructure Investment Centre (AIIC) was charged to implement the Land Swap Initiative.

This Land Swap Initiative was created under a special contract in line with Article 8 of the Land Use Act. And it is being implemented in 12 target districts under Phase IV (South) which includes: Jaite, Ketti North, Ketti, Ketti East, Sherretti, Sheretti Cheche in Sector N, and Burun West, Burun, Waru Pozema in Sector O, Bude West, Bude in Sector Q, and Gwagwa.

Private companies involved in the swap can develop 60% of the allocated district and are required to build primary infrastructure in return. The infrastructure will be provided without any financial, technical, or demand expectations from FCTA.

Examples of primary infrastructure to be built include kilometers of roads, water drains, water distribution lines, electrical power distribution lines, telecommunication ducts, and mini sewage treatment plants.

FCTA will retain the remaining 40% of the sub-district as buildable plots.
