As Nigeria celebrates its hardworking citizens this Workers’ Day, Dr. Engr. Akpa Stephen Achema, the Chief Executive Officer of ZOE New Dawn Real Estate, has delivered a message of appreciation and empowerment to Nigerian workers.

He described them as “the lifeblood of national development and the silent builders of the nation’s future.”

In his address, Dr. Achema commended the resilience, sacrifice, and patriotic commitment of workers across both public and private sectors, recognizing their invaluable contributions to the country’s progress.

“Today, we do not only celebrate labour—we celebrate purpose, progress, and perseverance,” Dr. Achema stated.

“Our workers are the true heroes of this nation. Despite the daily challenges, they continue to give their best to move Nigeria forward. Their hands build our roads, teach our children, care for the sick, secure our systems, and drive our economy. For this, we are grateful.”

In a move that aligns celebration with tangible impact, Dr. Achema announced a new initiative through ZOE New Dawn Real Estate—a flexible land ownership plan designed specifically for civil servants.

This new package allows workers to purchase land over a period of 6 to 12 months, reducing the financial pressure often associated with property acquisition.

“This Workers’ Day, we are not just celebrating—we are creating solutions,” he revealed. “At ZOE New Dawn, we recognize the struggles many civil servants face in trying to own land. That’s why we are introducing a tailored payment plan that enables them to acquire property in a more convenient and sustainable way.”
