Summary: | Several PPP housing projects are implemented in Nigeria since the official recognition in 2004. Consequently, the way forward in the PPP for the provision of affordable housing for urban dwellers who coincidentally have the most critical housing needs in Nigeria are not clearly understood. This study explored the problems and identified the success factors of PPP for the provision of affordable housing for urban dwellers in Nigeria. The paper depends on a systematic review of research literature and surveys data derived from the questionnaire with 256 respondents in various PPP Professions in housing provision in Nigeria to achieve the objectives. The study finds that PPP has not made a significant contribution to affordable housing instead has benefited the middle and high-income group for lack of proper framework which includes, land accessibility and affordability, corruption, lack of sound legal framework, funding constraints, unstable price of building material, as the key constrains to affordable housing in Nigeria. Furthermore, this study indicates the success factor of PPP to affordable housing and many opportunities in promoting widespread participation in public housing as the effective procurement process, the strong private sector, project economic viability, the sound financial package as the influential success factors. Therefore, suggest that government should provide land at no cost, provision of local building materials at low price, provision of more financial institution at little or no interest, establishment of an effective mortgage system and incorporation of assisted-self-help and incremental housing into the Public-Private-Partnership housing delivery system will ensure better results delivering a large-scale provision of affordable housing. |
