Meet our Speakers!
In major cities, rising rents, multi-year payment demands, and stagnant incomes are placing significant financial strain on millions of working households. In Abuja, recent data shows that 71% of residents now find it much harder to meet rent obligations than three years ago.
Professor Taibat Lawanson, an accomplished scholar, will discuss how research, policy, and advocacy can promote inclusive cities and support sustainable livelihoods, housing reform, urban economics, and residential financing. She will offer insights on how policy interventions and private-sector models can address Nigeria's housing deficit.
We invite you to join this important conversation on housing in Nigeria.

Dr. Temilade Sesan,
As the Lagos City Manager for the African Cities Research Consortium and an environmental consultant, Dr. @temiladesesan engages policymakers, stakeholders, civil society, academia, and businesses to address social and political barriers to poverty alleviation in Nigeria.
Frequent rent increases can deepen poverty by reducing the income households have for essential needs. When rent outpaces earnings, it creates ongoing financial vulnerability. Households may struggle to build assets, relocate farther from employment, and risk losing access to stable, adequate housing.

Across urban Nigeria, especially in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), citizens face an unsustainable housing crisis. Rent increases of 40% to 100% each year force low and middle-income earners to move far to the edges of the city. This puts a heavy strain on infrastructure, family budgets, and mental health.
Fixing Nigeria’s housing problem means going beyond quick fixes to big changes in the institutions involved.
Tomorrow, we convene stakeholders to discuss practical solutions and the future of housing in Nigeria.
Let’s amplify the conversation!

Protecting tenants from unfair rent hikes while understanding landlords’ real costs and encouraging investment in housing is key. The government must create clearer rules for rent changes and stronger tenant protections. It should also ensure more transparent rental processes, easier dispute resolution, and increased investment in affordable housing.

When housing costs surge far beyond income growth, they can ensnare vulnerable families in hardship and deepen the hold of poverty on those fighting to escape its grasp.

Rising rental costs are putting pressure on Nigerian households, prompting increased discussion of rent regulation to protect tenants from sudden or excessive rent increases. While regulation can promote fairness and predictability, it does not fully address the core issues of limited affordable housing, rising construction costs, and stagnant household incomes.
To what extent can rent regulation address Nigeria’s rental crisis, and what complementary measures are needed to ensure that decent, affordable housing is accessible to more Nigerians?
We invite you to join this important policy discussion as we work toward effective solutions.

In an economy where households are already balancing food, transportation, healthcare, and other essential expenses, repeated or steep rent increases can erode savings, deepen financial insecurity, and force families to relocate farther from work and essential services.
To achieve lasting affordability, Nigeria needs more homes, clear and open rental agreements, and easy ways to resolve disputes when they arise.
What measures would make rent more predictable and affordable for residents of the FCT?

A well-designed rent regulation policy can drive meaningful change by increasing transparency in tenancy agreements, establishing clear rent increase procedures, discouraging arbitrary charges, raising tenant awareness, and offering accessible dispute resolution.
However, these benefits must be weighed against Nigeria’s economic realities, including inflation, high construction and maintenance costs, expensive land and infrastructure, and a limited supply of affordable housing.
In one week, we will bring together stakeholders for a webinar titled "Rethinking Rental Affordability and Housing Solutions in Nigeria."
Register early to join the discussion and help shape Nigeria’s housing landscape.

Government must also address rising construction costs and stagnant incomes. Nigerians should not have to choose between decent accommodation, feeding their families, and meeting other basic needs.
A home should provide security, not financial hardship. NOIPolls has brought an urgent national conversation to the forefront. The time for practical, people-centred housing reforms is now.

Youth are not only the future of governance; they are leading it right now. As Generation Z sparks new social trends and drives national debates, grasping their political outlook, civic energy, and economic priorities is essential to creating truly inclusive democracies.
With the @afrobarometer Gen Z Survey, @NOIPolls set out to capture the heartbeat of Nigeria’s youth—their civic passion, economic perspectives, and political dreams. To achieve this, a dynamic three-day training sharpened data accuracy, unified standards, and empowered young voices to resonate with clarity.
