The Maitama District is located in the NorthEast region of Phase 1 in the Abuja Municipality, bounded near Aguiyi Ironsi road to the South and Murtala Mohammed Way to the North. The neighbourhood has a reputation for its large luxury and particularly expensive residential properties. Nonetheless, Maitama is a mixed-use region with a large amount of commercial activity in plazas and standalone shops on streets such as Gana Street.
