At just 29 years old, Moses B. Arthur is not only reshaping skylines in Ghana, but also challenging the mindset of an entire generation. As an award-winning TEDx speaker, global real estate developer, and best-selling author, Moses B. Arthur—fondly known as MBA—is leading with conviction, driven by what he calls his “epic vision for Africa.” His influential voice and groundbreaking work have earned him global recognition, positioning him as a leading figure in real estate innovation and diaspora-driven development.
A Mission Rooted in Purpose
For Moses, real estate is more than brick and mortar—it’s a legacy of transformation. “At the core of what I embody,” he says, “and at the core of my very existence is to always leave my fellow man better than I found them and the world a better place …and I get to expressly do that as a real estate developer, global speaker and thought leader through my books and transformative podcast Thoughts Become Things.
As Co-Founder and CEO of Afrimart Atlantic Limited in Accra, Ghana, he’s turning vision into reality—building infrastructure that empowers communities and creates generational wealth.
Arthur’s mindset was forged in moments of doubt. In November 2024, he found himself facing immense pressure after launching two major initiatives: breaking ground on the tallest residential apartment in East Legon Hills (Solara Residence) and booking Ghana’s largest indoor auditorium to celebrate his 8th year as a speaker. But instead of retreating, he leaned into what he calls “The Man in the Arena” mindset—an ode to those who strive, dare, and fail forward.
“The place where our greatest discomfort lies is also the spot where our largest opportunity lives that was how I came up with The man in the arena mindset on 15th November 2024. That very dawn at 3am – I was in a very low place as I wondered if I had taken on so much at such a young age of 28 because I had just dared to commence the tallest residential apartment in East Legon Hills called Solara Residence and also booked the largest indoor event auditorium to mark my 8th anniversary as a public speaker and if I did fill it – I would then become Ghana’s youngest speaker to have done that.
Then it dawned on me that
It is not the critic who counts…
Not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, Or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena…
Whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood…
Who strives valiantly, who errs, who comes up short again and again… Because there is no effort without error and shortcoming.
But still, he strives…
He dares to do the deeds…
He knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions… He spends himself in a worthy cause.
And at best, he knows the triumph of high achievement…
And at worst—if he fails—
He fails while daring greatly…
So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls… Who neither know victory nor defeat.
Afterall WHY ARE WE HERE IF WE CAN’T DO GREAT THINGS.”
Solara Residence: A Testament to Resilience
Solara is not just a high-rise—it’s a story. After only nine months of construction, the six-story, 25-unit apartment complex is nearly sold out, with just three units remaining. Featuring an elevator, rooftop pool, restaurant, gym, and atrium, Solara redefines eco-conscious luxury in Ghana’s capital. “This development is proof that dreams are valid,” Arthur says.
“Afrimart Atlantic Limited is a premier real estate development company based in Accra, Ghana. Established in 2022 first as a construction company and then transitioning into a development company, we have consistently set the standard for luxury living and innovative property development in the region. To be the leading real estate developer in West Africa, recognized for our innovative designs, superior quality, and exceptional customer service is OUR VISION and we get to achieve this by developing world-class real estate solutions that meet the evolving needs of our clients while enhancing the communities in which we operate, through sustainable practices, cutting-edge technology, and a relentless commitment to excellence.”
“Solara Residence is a story of resilience and from the very start to completion is to let every young person know that their dreams are valid. For the neighborhood in which we are developing – we are the tallest residential apartment in the place and the apartment is very eco-friendly and has some top-notch amenities that other apartments our size doesn’t have. Our price points and generous spaces in terms of room size also makes us stand out.”
Solara isn’t the end—it’s the beginning. In July, Afrimart Atlantic will launch Platinum Enclave, a gated community with townhouses, studio apartments, and upscale amenities. Later this year comes Luxora Residence, a project that promises even more innovation.
Changing the Narrative for Africa
Moses believes Africa is on the brink of a renaissance—and infrastructure will lead the charge. “One of the things that marks the civilization of a people is its infrastructure,” he says. With Ghana poised as the gateway to Africa, Arthur is creating opportunities for locals and the diaspora alike to build wealth through real estate.
”Ghana and Africa at large are the place where the world is turning to – and real estate will play a significant role in many ways from commercial to residential developments that will serve the ever-growing population of the continent. And just by owning lands positions you in an advantageous place to build generational wealth.”
While challenges such as funding and economic volatility remain, Moses remains strategic: “We prepare well and stay ahead of market trends. I’ve learned to leverage currencies beyond money—relationships, trust, and vision—to get projects completed.”
From Ghana to the World: The Vision Expands
In 2025, Moses is going global. He’s preparing to host the Invest in Accra Real Estate Expo in Chicago on October 4, in partnership with Savvy Chicks in Real Estate. His goals? Share investment opportunities, connect with the diaspora, and grow his speaking platform in the U.S.
”The Afrimart Atlantic real estate expo is a premier in-person event where industry leaders and renowned experts converge for engaging discussions and exclusive presentations and early bird offers on new projects by the company.
As a personal brand – I am looking exploring what the USA speaking market looks like and see the opportunities I can leverage on to expand my speaking career to that market.”
“I want to share my light and expand my influence,” he says. “Not just in Ghana, but across other African markets and the world.”
