Abstract

Public Private Partnership (PPP) Housing scheme in Nigeria is intended to complement government effort toward increasing housing stock and providing affordable housing in the country. However, Bauchi state government adopted the construction of 5,000 phases PPP Housing. But 6 years after the commencement of the scheme, only a few numbers of housing units were completed and commissioned. Therefore, it becomes imperative to carry out research on the impact level of those factors affecting the implementation of the scheme. The aim of the study is to investigate impact level of factors affecting the implementation of PPP housing projects in Bauchi state with a view to find out possible ways that will improve the implementation of the scheme. The descriptive and explorative research design was adopted for this study. 54 structured Questionnaires were administered to construction professional’s staff under private housing developers and relevant government agencies in Bauchi state. 42 valid Questionnaires were retrieved and analysed with SPSS software. The result of the quantitative data analysis shows that creation of favourable investment environment and government support have very high Impact on the implementation of Bauchi PPP housing projects. Therefore, this study recommends that government and other stakeholders should give more attention to the creation of favourable investment environment, support in policy formulation and managerial strategies in the future for improving the implementation of PPP housing projects.

Summary

Introduction

Public private partnership (PPP) is an arrangement between the public and private sectors with clear agreement on shared objectives for the delivery of public infrastructure and/or public services by the private sector that would otherwise have being provided through traditional public sector procurement [12]. The adoption of public private partnership (PPP) in housing provision in Nigeria is intended to increase urban housing stock and address housing affordability and accessibility [8]. After six years of the adoption of PPP Housing project in Bauchi State, only 228 housing units were completed and commissioned for habitation in 2015 [3]. This is an indication that there are some factors that hindered the successful implementation of the Bauchi PPP housing scheme. Authors [7] observed that there are little achievements recorded in most of the Nigerian cities by public private partnership housing scheme to address the shortfall in the provision of affordable housing in the country. There was no non-study that investigate impact level of factors affecting the implementation of PPP housing projects which left a gap to be filled
