Real estate and construction professionals have continued to commend the Grandis 5-Star Luxury Apartment & Suites in Victoria Island because of the strict global safety and quality assurance procedures used in its construction.
Speaking on the project, Mr. Emmanuel Ajayi, a hotelier, said Lagos is set to welcome a new addition to its skyline as plans advance for the Grandis 5-Star Luxury Apartment & Suites in Victoria Island. According to him, although construction has yet to commence, the project’s design is already generating attention within the property and architectural community, particularly because of its emphasis on safety and durability.
He said, “Every stage of the development process—from design to eventual construction and maintenance—is being planned under strict global safety and quality assurance procedures. Dumarco has also separated the roles of developer, contractor, and consultant to ensure independent oversight and accountability throughout the project’s lifecycle.”
He said, “The 17-floor residential development, designed to overlook Eko Atlantic, Victoria Island, and Ikoyi, is being developed by Dumarco Construction Limited, a firm with decades of experience in the highly regulated oil and gas industry.”
According to Adejuwon A. Ademola, General Manager of Dumarco, the project’s foundation rests on international safety standards rarely applied in Nigeria’s residential property market. “There is no room for compromise in the oil and gas industry. We are applying that same zero-tolerance approach to property development,” Ademola said. “Grandis is designed not just for luxury but peace of mind.”
The project team includes industry giants such as Julius Berger, Cappa & D’Alberto, Elalan, MC&T (Migliore Construzione & Tecniche) with Dubai’s VICC, and Business Contracting Limited, alongside consultants like Morgan Omanitan & Abe, Lambert, and James Cubitt.
Ademola said that plans for the building highlight reinforced structures, advanced fire prevention systems, smart-home integration, and 24-hour surveillance. Residents will also benefit from discreet, highly trained staff and facilities that balance privacy with comfort.
Ademola explained that the goal is to set a new benchmark for residential developments in Nigeria. “We designed Grandis for people who want everything—security, sophistication, and the assurance that their home will look and perform as well in 20 years as it does on day one,” he said.
Industry observers note that the Grandis project could help restore confidence among buyers and investors who are increasingly wary of safety lapses in Nigeria’s property sector by applying safety protocols common in oil and gas to high-rise housing.
