Mixta Africa, a pan-African real estate development company, has expanded its Lakowe Lakes Golf & Country Estate in Lagos with the introduction of polo, equestrian facilities, and new residential offerings. The new development was unveiled at an invitation-only event at the Federal Palace Hotel, Lagos, on Friday, October 23, 2026. The event attracted more than 200 invited guests and marked a new phase in the evolution of Lakowe Lakes. This expansion aims to position the development as a broader leisure and lifestyle destination.

The expanded development features a regulation polo field, stables, a training field, paddock, clubhouse, and crescent lake, alongside a collection of residential properties designed around the polo and equestrian environment. The new residential offering includes premium villas, loft terraces, and apartments, with selected homes overlooking the polo field and lake. This addition builds on the existing golf offering, adding another sporting and recreational dimension to the estate.

Mixta Africa Chief Executive Officer, Deji Alli, spoke at the launch, emphasizing the company's commitment to creating long-term value through projects that combine residential property with lifestyle and leisure experiences. He delivered a keynote address titled "The Courage to Build: Vision, Execution and Enduring Value." Alli highlighted that successful real estate development required a long-term vision and disciplined execution.

According to Alli, building something of lasting value requires the courage to see beyond the present, the discipline to execute, and the responsibility to create value that endures. He explained that the company's ambition is not simply to sell property but to build a destination that gives people compelling reasons to choose it. This vision aligns with Mixta Africa's long-term plan for Lakowe Lakes.

The latest expansion builds on Mixta Africa's experience in delivering residential communities and its established presence at Lakowe Lakes Golf & Country Estate. The company has over 20 years of experience in the real estate sector, with more than 30,000 homes delivered across Nigeria, Senegal, Tunisia, Morocco, and Côte d'Ivoire. This experience has equipped Mixta Africa to create integrated destinations where housing, recreation, landscape, and community life complement one another.

The introduction of polo and equestrian facilities represents a significant extension of Lakowe Lakes' existing golf offering. The launch also generated initial ownership discussions around the expanded residential collection, which will be released in phases as the development progresses. Prospective homeowners can now consider additional lifestyle attractions, including sport, leisure, wellness, and community.

The expanded Lakowe Lakes Golf & Country Estate now offers a comprehensive range of lifestyle experiences, combining residential living, sporting activities, leisure, and hospitality within a country-estate setting. With its new polo and equestrian facilities, the estate is poised to become a premier destination for those seeking a luxurious and active lifestyle. Key developments include a regulation polo field and premium residential offerings.
