The Ongos Valley development has created over 14,000 employment opportunities for Namibians as part of its Phase 1 project rollout.

According to Ongos Spokesperson Abed Erastus, large-scale residential development generates a wide range of job opportunities, including roles such as project managers, architects and engineers. 

“There is a variety of employment opportunities created during a large-scale residential development; from project managers, architects, engineers (civil, structural, electrical), to site supervisors, coordinators, environmental and safety managers and heavy equipment operators, to plumbers, electricians, carpenters, bricklayers and general labourers etc,” he told The Brief. 

He further explained that spanning 28,000 homes across seven phases, Ongos Valley is designed to be a dynamic, mixed-use community.

The development will include schools, shopping malls, service stations, businesses and institutions, aiming to create a sustainable, vibrant environment that caters to every need. 

Currently, work is underway on Extension 3 of Phase 1, which will deliver 4,500 residential homes. This marks a major milestone in the 20-year development plan that promises to transform the region. 

“Our 20-year development plan spans seven phases, and we are excited to be working on Extension 3 of Phase 1, offering quality homes with the current phase underway delivering 4,500 residences. This groundbreaking project has also created 14,000+ employment opportunities in Phase 1 alone, making a significant impact on the local economy,” he said. 

The Ongos Valley Development has invested N$900 million into the housing project’s first phase of development in Windhoek.

Additionally, the project commissioned the expansion of the Peter Nanyemba Road into a dual-carriageway at a cost of N$381 million in April 2023. 

Ongos Valley is situated on a 1,750-hectare portion of Farm Ongos, 13 kilometres from the Windhoek city centre.

It will be a self-contained green village area with schools, hospitals, police stations and a cemetery, among other services.
