Real estate entrepreneur King Mohamed Adah, popularly known as Ochacho, the CEO of Ochacho Group has called on stakeholders to recognise and invest in the country’s most valuable asset — its youth.

He made this known during an engagement session with young Nigerians at the Ochacho Group headquarters in Abuja, Adah underscored the strategic importance of youth empowerment in shaping the future of Nigeria’s real estate industry.

Addressing an enthusiastic audience, Adah described Nigerian youths as the engine room of innovation, resilience, and economic revitalization.

“Our youths are among the most industrious globally,” he remarked. “They work tirelessly, dream boldly, and innovate fearlessly. They are not only our future, they are our now.”

He stressed that the future of Nigeria’s real estate sector, and by extension, the national economy, rests on the ability to equip, inspire, and empower this demographic to participate meaningfully in property development, urban planning, and community building.

He lamented the lack of effective leadership and support systems for young people, noting that the nation must extend opportunities across sectors, from education and healthcare to entrepreneurship and housing.

According to him, fostering a generation of well-equipped youths requires intentional mentorship and inclusive development policies.

Adah’s own journey, from modest beginnings to the helm of one of Nigeria’s most formidable real estate conglomerates, is a testament to the transformative power of vision, hard work, and youth-driven innovation.

Adah envisions a real estate ecosystem where young Nigerians are not mere spectators, but creators and decision-makers. He advocates for housing models tailored to the economic realities of young people, as well as innovation hubs and training programs that prepare them for roles as developers, architects, and property investors.
