Wow. This can seeve for educational purposes. Data like this shows where there are disposable income because and where hospital and health related businesses will thrive more. A big kudos to the topping region South East. Government needs to add more fund for health in that region.

Jokerman:
My question why always Igbos topping all the amazing statistics in Nigeria ?

Bia Oga OP. Start adding the

What is the link about? I don not clink on unknown links. How about you share a screenshot of what you intend to me to view.

Are there special materials like paints and special Sand and cements required before we can begin to design and build our rental houses like in Europe?

Home Developers, Engineers and Town Planners. What will it take for us to start building our public houses like Europe?

Public Housing in Nigeria.

Picture Location: Aba
Town planning experts and abroad based people. What are the things that make Apartment buildings in Europe to be built so differently from the way we build houses for tenants in Nigeria?
What can our policy makers and government do to level up?

Houses for rent in Onitsha.
Consider the fact these locations are some of the places you can see well built houses in Nigeria yet they are nowhere to compare to What is obtained in Europe or even some African countries.

Here are some pictures of houses for rent in Nigeria. Why are Public house not laid out in an Asymmetrical way?

I find it hard to figure out why we dont build housses in such a way it will be orderly and beautiful to the eyes.

Why is it that in Nigeria we don't build house for rent in this way like we see in Europe?

The apartments are usually painted with white colour or sometimes any bright color. Most of them dont have corridors like the way we build in Nigeria. You will see the streets how they are well designed in a neat way, the streets may be paved with tar or interlocks and it will look so neatly done; the kerbs, lawns in a straight line.

Frankly one of the things i enjoy when i watch foreign movies (Hollywood) are the beautiful sights of well laid out apartments. The apartments are usually several storeys high and they often stretch from a long distance

Developers, Engineers and Town Planners please this thread need your inputs and answers. So i have been having this thoughts in my mind as to why we build rental houses the way we do in Nigeria. You will see 1 plot of land housing 2 storey building with 6 flats filled with tenants and painted with yellow color and behind that house is another 1 plot of land with fence, housing a 3 storey building painted in grey color and facing a different angle. The same unorganized pattern repeats on and on.

Why are living Apartments in other countries very different from the way we build our apartment in Nigeria?
Let's Discuss...

OkanlawonB:
Sorry to say, this your question and observation is more or less a foolish comparison.
The disparity in culture and level of western development in Nigeria and Europe is very enormous.
Even within western Europe itself there are disparities in the ways rental accommodation are built and managed in different countries.
For example the many victorian buildings that still adorn many areas in the UK would have long been demolished in a country like Austria to make way for new builds.
This is more of a cultural differences issue. Abeokuta can never turn to Geneva.

Well, to some extent you are correct but i take strong exception to your submission Nigeria cannot build or develop structures like this because of cultural difference. I dont think there is any culture that forbids development and serenity. If you say because of our economy and level of development we cannot be there yet, i will agree with you.

But the question still remains, why can we NOT build these structures yet? Is it a policy problem or just engineering incompetence?

@Mod Justwise Pls can you kindly move to FP so that we may get expert contributions and views on this. Thank you.

justwise:
In Nigeria we waste space a lot and we don't have strict urban planning, in many countries like the UK you can not build a house or do an extension in your house without getting a permission from your local council else it will be taken down.

You are right. People are fond of building structures in a place where it shouldn't be.
Another thing is think that contributes is the land tenure system we practice here. Whereby land is solely in the hand of individuals, therefore people buy and sell as they wish and erect structures as they wish. Maybe if the government is the sole authority over land, both in selling and development of the land, just maybe the situation wouldn't have been so.

princeade86:
Because they are well planned. Unlike us here.

Yes. I think that is also another thing that contributes to the problem. If you check well, you will see that some cities in Nigeria have a well laid out master plan especially by the colonialists but due to the corruption happening daily in the various city development agencies, you see them looking the other way while individuals are building structures that are contrary to the master plan.

Are there special materials like paints and special Sand and cements required before we can begin to design and build our rental houses like in Europe?
