Affordable Housing, Housing issues, Housing policy, Modular housing
Access to shelter is a basic human need. It plays an integral role in people’s physical and mental well-being. However, in cities like Lagos, Nigeria, the provision of “affordable shelter” has not kept pace with the drastic population growth. For this reason, various innovative technologies have been introduced by the federal government of Lagos, of which affordable “modular housing” plays a central role. In this paper, we conduct survey-based research to establish whether “modular housing” projects can mitigate the housing crisis in Lagos. In particular, we evaluate residents’ sentiments towards these projects’ affordability. Based on the survey’s outcome, we identify the benefits and analyze the key issues and risks of modular housing. Finally, we provide recommendations that policymakers and stakeholders should consider in managing these issues.
