Abstract
Housing sound as a universal interest of human being which is an economic resources providing space for production and access to income earning opportunities. It is one of the essentials of life, but it constitutes one of the major problems in the developing urban cities. The Nigeria government has tried all attempts to address urban housing challenges but rapid increase in urban population growth had been one of the major problems facing housing stock. Ikorodu Local Government Area with its growing population was studied to gauge the performance of the Public-Private Sectors Partnership in Sustainable Housing delivery. The aim of the research is to assess the performance and impact of Public-Private Sectors Partnership in Provision of Housing delivery. The study involved primary data that was collected through observation, oral interview and questionnaire to get information from beneficiaries of the Housing Estates as well as the Public and Private Developers. Secondary data were sourced from relevant textbooks, journals and the internet. The collected data was subjected to descriptive and inferential statistics analysis. The study revealed that sustainable housing delivery suffered various setbacks such as inadequate supply of land by government due to Land Use Act, high price in building materials, inadequate fund to execute construction works, insufficient labour (skilled and unskilled) in the study area. Infrastructural facilities such as electricity, pipe borne water, drainage were lagging behind in some of the housing estates and which were supposed to be in place for the betterment of beneficiaries. It is recommended that government should come out with policy guidelines for a sustainable housing delivery through public-private sectors partnership in the country.
