In a strategic move to expand commercial real estate opportunities and accelerate wealth creation in Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Exclusive Shelters has partnered with Urban Shelters Infrastructure Limited to launch Phase Two of the Dei-Dei Ultra-Modern Market, a landmark commercial development designed to unlock new investment opportunities and stimulate the next phase of Abuja’s commercial growth.
The expansion follows the remarkable success of the first phase of the project, which attracted significant investor interest, generated impressive returns on investment, and positioned the Dei-Dei Ultra-Modern Market as one of Abuja’s emerging commercial destinations.
With the official unveiling of Phase Two, both organisations say they are responding to strong market demand from investors who missed the first investment window while creating fresh opportunities for entrepreneurs, traders and businesses seeking to establish a presence in one of the Federal Capital Territory’s fastest-growing commercial corridors.
Speaking on the significance of the partnership, the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Exclusive Shelters, Ahmad Bello Kawuwa, described the collaboration as a testament to the company’s credibility, excellence and consistent delivery.

“The partnership didn’t happen by chance. Urban Shelters has built and delivered projects for decades, and they don’t put their name next to just anyone. They looked at the market, looked at who is actually delivering, and they came to us.
“Exclusive Shelters has earned every bit of this recognition. While other companies were still finding their footing, we were already setting the pace, building on time, building right and building at a standard that attracts attention. Dei-Dei Phase Two isn’t luck; it is the result of years of hard work and consistently outperforming many players in the industry. This is only the beginning of many landmark developments to come.”
Also speaking, the Managing Director of Urban Shelters Infrastructure Limited, Rilwan Salihu Aliyu, described the agreement as the beginning of a long-term strategic relationship that will redefine collaboration within Nigeria’s real estate industry.
“Our signing today marks the beginning of a great relationship, not just signing documents but the beginning of a partnership that will last for many years to come.
“When you look at Exclusive Shelters, you see the future of excellence in Nigeria’s and Africa’s real estate landscape. We deliberately chose a company that has consistently demonstrated credibility and outstanding project delivery over the years.
“I don’t think I have seen a private company that delivers like Exclusive Shelters—and on time. Their track record is absolutely commendable and is something every industry player should learn from. We knew immediately that this company truly deserved to become the first private company we would partner with.”
The companies noted that the launch of Phase Two comes at a time when major infrastructure investments are transforming the commercial prospects of the Dei-Dei axis. The recent commissioning of the access road linking Dei-Dei to Life Camp by the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has significantly improved accessibility, creating conditions for stronger commercial activity, increased property values and higher returns on investment.
According to the developers, the exceptional performance of Phase One generated considerable demand from investors seeking another opportunity to participate in the project. Phase Two is therefore designed to meet that demand while providing early investors with another opportunity to benefit from the area’s continued economic growth.
Exclusive Shelters reaffirmed that its mission extends beyond conventional property development, positioning itself as a wealth creation firm committed to helping individuals, families and businesses build sustainable wealth through strategic real estate investments.

“We are not just a real estate company; we are a wealth creation firm,” the company stated. “Every project we undertake is carefully selected to create sustainable value for investors. We identify high-growth locations and align our developments with government infrastructure initiatives to maximise long-term appreciation and investment returns.”
The company added that its continued investment in the Karsana and Dei-Dei growth corridor aligns with the Federal Government’s Renewed Hope Agenda and ongoing infrastructure expansion across the FCT, positioning investors to benefit from the area’s rapid transformation.
With the combined expertise, experience and reputation of Exclusive Shelters and Urban Shelters Infrastructure Limited, Phase Two of the Dei-Dei Ultra-Modern Market is expected to become one of Abuja’s most significant commercial real estate developments, creating new opportunities for investors, retailers, entrepreneurs and businesses while contributing meaningfully to the economic development of the Federal Capital Territory.
