Regus Unveils Stylish New Workspace In Abuja’s City Center
Global flexible office provider, Regus, is expanding its Nigerian footprint with the launch of a brand-new, cutting-edge workspace in Murjanatu House, right in the heart of Abuja. This move reaffirms the company’s commitment to empowering freelancers, startups, SMEs, and multinationals across the country with accessible, high-quality workspaces.
Spanning 1,200 square meters, the new center offers between 50 to 60 private offices and approximately 140 desks, designed to meet the ever-evolving needs of Nigeria’s diverse workforce — from remote professionals and digital nomads to large corporate teams seeking agility.
Workspace That Works for Everyone
At the launch event, Regus Sales Director, Henry Onyeche, explained that Regus’ workspace solutions are user-focused and versatile, offering tailored memberships and flexible access for various categories of professionals.
“Whether you’re a freelancer looking for occasional desk space or a global team needing a fully equipped office, we have you covered,” said Onyeche.
“With just one membership, you can walk into any of our 10,000+ centers in over 120 countries and get to work — internet and support included.”
Onyeche noted that this model is particularly useful in Nigeria’s challenging real estate climate, where traditional long-term leases often limit small businesses and startups.
“Our clients don’t have to commit to long leases or deal with agency fees. They can book offices hourly, daily, monthly, or yearly — whatever suits their need and budget,” he added.
Quality, Accessibility, and Impact
For Ayo Akinmade, Country Manager of Regus Nigeria, the new location is more than just another office center — it’s a catalyst for economic activity and professional growth.
“We built Murjanatu House with functionality and premium quality in mind,” he said.
“Beyond workspace, this center supports job creation, tax revenue, and community development. It’s also affordable, professional, and built to global standards.”
Akinmade, who once used Regus services abroad while living in the UK, said that experience inspired him to bring the model to Nigeria. The journey began in Lagos, then expanded to Port Harcourt, and now Abuja is getting a major slice of the action.
“When I moved back to Nigeria, there was nothing quite like this. I pitched the idea to Regus, and now we’re expanding steadily across the country.”
Security, Flexibility & Strategic Location
Post-COVID shifts in work culture have driven demand for hybrid office models, and Regus is meeting that demand with customizable plans — including one-day-per-month access and fully private monthly office arrangements.
And security? Top-tier.
“We take background checks seriously,” Onyeche said.
“Identity verification, company documentation, and references are all part of the vetting process. We want our spaces to be safe, credible, and secure.”
Valentine Nwandu, Regus Partner and CEO of VCN Spaces Maitama Limited, couldn’t agree more. He praised the strategic location of Murjanatu House, which is within proximity to Transcorp Hilton, INEC, NEPA, and the Federal High Court.
“This spot is gold. It’s central, accessible, and surrounded by the top institutions in the city,” Nwandu said.
“It’s a space designed for productivity and convenience. We’re excited to see what the future holds.”
More on the Horizon
The Murjanatu House launch is just one piece of a bigger picture. Regus plans to open new centers in Garki Area 2 and other key Nigerian cities before the year ends.
Currently, the brand operates multiple hubs in Lagos, Port Harcourt, and Abuja, offering co-working spaces, private offices, meeting rooms, and even virtual office services for businesses that want a presence without a physical footprint.
