‘Can You Fix Nigeria’ Series – Episode 5
In October 2020, after months of observing the drift Nigeria was experiencing, the slow response to the COVID crisis and the general hopelessness of the citizenry, Culbeat Foundation initiated a series of non-partisan policy talks to evaluate the problems facing Nigeria.
There are strict rules in place to avoid partisanship and online abuse; and to open our minds in order to discuss issues concerning Nigeria. This series is tagged the Can You Fix Nigeria Challenge and the episodes were recorded between November 2020 and March 2021.
It is our pleasure to serialise these discussions with you via News Round The Clock.
Episode 5 – Housing
In Fix Nigeria – Episode 5, we discuss the challenges facing delivery of affordable, mass housing in Nigeria. We look at several issues ranging from social housing, affordability, the Nigerian Housing Fund (NHF), town planning and Public-Private Partnerships amongst other issues.
Furthermore, we address the following:
- 1. Stakeholder engagement and the issue of misalignment between financiers of housing projects and the end-users
- 2. The impact of government policies and taxes on affordability
- 3. The cost of raw materials such as cement and steel
