Abstract

The paper discusses how housing produced by the poor in Ogbere area of Ibadan is negotiated from the societal complex due to the inability of government to provide for them and low income housing not being attractive to the profit driven private sector. The contextual case study utilises quantitative and qualitative methods and adopts the lens of Lefebvre's theory of space to examine the people and the process in relation to the houses produced. The findings necessitate ‘social totality’ approach to intervening in improving the housing quality of low income people to upgrade the quality of life in urban areas.
