Government and Private Housing Services in Metropolitan Abuja, Nigeria: An Empirical Survey

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social Science - Year 2018, Vol 23, Issue 5

Abstract

The grandness of housing in the society is recognised by the involvement of both Government and Private developers in the delivery of housing services in major cities across the Federation. Notwithstanding, this has failed to stem housing inadequacies such as development of slums and poor housing quality standards. This empirical study compared public housing and private housing in Abuja. The study utilised both primary and secondary sources of data. Data collected were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The study revealed among others, that housing delivery services in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja is of relatively good quality. The study concludes that public housing service delivery is better than private housing service delivery.
