ExECUTivE DiRECTORIn April �007, the Governing Council of UN-HABITAT approved our �008-�013 Medium-Term Strategic and Institutional Plan. This plan intends to promote the alignment of UN-HABITAT normative and operational activities at country level.
The UN-HABITAT Country Programme Documents
(HCPD) are tangible components of this Plan as well as a genuine endeavour of UN-HABITAT to better coordinate normative and operational activities in a consultative and inclusive process involving UN-HABITAT’s in-country focal points, UN-HABITAT Programme Managers, national governments, UN country teams, sister-UN agencies, development partners and all divisions of our Agency. The UN-HABITAT Country Programme Documents are strategic tools meant as a guide for all UN-HABITAT activities over a two-year period. A major dimension of the UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document is to advocate UN-HABITAT’s mandate and address the urban challenges facing the world’s developing countries.
The UN-HABITAT Country Programme Documents identify national urban development goals and priorities including shelter, urban governance, access to basic services and credit. Important cross-cutting issues such as the environment, gender, responses to disasters, and vulnerability reduction are also addressed. The UN-HABITAT Country Programme Documents focus on UN-HABITAT country programming.
They serve as a work plan for UN-HABITAT Programme Managers and a reference tool for national and local actors involved in sustainable urban development. According to the Medium-Term Strategic and Institutional Action Plan adopted by the UN-HABITAT Committee of Permanent Representatives on 6 December �007, twenty UN-HABITAT Country Programme Documents were completed during �008, including the One-UN Pilot countries where UN-HABITAT is active.
In line with the United Nations reform process, UN-HABITAT Country Programme Documents seek to strengthen the role of the United Nations and to demonstrate our commitment. I wish to thank our UN-HABITAT Programme Managers for their input and dedication and for putting together these documents under guidance of the Regional and Technical Cooperation Division and with support from all branches and programmes of the Agency.

MiNiSTERIt gives me great pleasure to introduce UN-HABITAT’S first Country Programme Document for Nigeria.
The Government wishes to express its continued commitment to UN-HABITAT initiatives and its role as an implementing partner of the agency’s global mandate.
I am happy that our relationship has been reinforced by the successful establishment of the Habitat Programme Support Office (HAPSO), which is now beginning to yield very positive outputs.
This collaboration is already leading to greater commitment to national programmes, policies and projects that will contribute towards poverty reduction and sustainable urbanization in Nigeria.
I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate that Nigeria’s Habitat Country Programme Document has been compiled in a wholly participatory manner. It comes as a result of extensive consultations between development partners: all programme areas reflect the priorities of the Government and other key stakeholders.
It is my firm belief that the full commitment of all stakeholders will go a long way in ensuring continuous Improvement in the human settlements situation in Nigeria.

NATiONAl URbAN POliCY CONTExT Nigeria is situated in the West African sub-region of sub-Saharan Africa comprising a total land area of 9�3,768 km�. It is one of the most populated and rapidly urbanizing countries in Africa, with a population of more than 150 million, with a high concentration in urban areas.
Three years after Nigeria’s independence in 1960, it adopted a republican constitution consisting of a three-tier structure comprising the federal, state and local governments. Politically, the country’s six geo-political regions (North-West, North-East, North-Central, South-West, South-South and South-East) are made up of 36 States (federating units), the Federal Capital Territory and 774 Local Government Areas.
Nigeria’s economy is dominated by crude oil exports and characterized by low economic growth. With a human development index figure of 0.448 attained in �006, the United Nations Development Programme Human Development Report for �006 ranked Nigeria 159th among 177 countries and 76th out of 103 poorest countries in the world.
In May 1999, Nigeria embarked on a democratic governance campaign. The country is well poised to address current challenges in promoting sustainable development in all sectors of the economy including environmental sustainability. To achieve economic growth and social welfare, several development challenges are in need of urgent attention, especially the human settlements sector.
Poverty eradication is a major challenge for towns and states within the federation. Poor areas are characterized by an absence of proper land use, unplanned business structures, congestion, and pollution. These poor urban landscapes are breeding grounds for disease; they contribute to insecurity and are impediments to improving socio-economic conditions.
Part one of the HCPD is divided into the mutually reinforcing focus areas of UN-HABITAT’s Medium-Term Strategic Institutional Plan for �008-�013, as approved by the Governing Council in �007.
FOCus area 1: ADvOCACY, MONiTORiNG AND PARTNERSHiPS
URbAN SECURiTY
The national vision for crime prevention is to achieve a safe, secure, democratic and just society in Nigeria. The country pledged to combat crime, with the view to increasing the quality of life, security, democracy, good governance, the rule of law and the free exercise of human rights in Nigeria.
Urban violence is recognized as a major problem in Nigerian cities. It has a dramatic impact on the social fabric of cities, threatening the reform process and eroding the ability of the poor to build assets and participate in urban development. Violent neighbourhoods often are stigmatized and do not benefit from outside investment.
Although incidents of crime have declined in Nigeria’s urban centres, the numbers are still too high. From �,000 official cases recorded in 1994, the number peaked at 4,363 cases in �004, and then rapidly declined to �,657 cases in �005.
Crime in the country has been linked to several fac-tors notably poverty and unemployment. Inability to control crime in major cities has been linked to settlements that are poorly planned and poorly man-aged for effective policing. Evidence of this is seen where there are unnamed streets, where buildings are

not numbered, where there is an absence of cadas-tral maps, a lack of street lights, and poorly serviced roads. Not only are these planning blunders difficult to police, urban crime is more rampant, especially for women. Neither federal nor state institutions alone are able to tackle these challenges.
In urban areas, local governments have a key role to play in mobilizing and leading strong coalitions, com-munities and other agencies to develop sustainable, just and effective strategies for safer cities. A focus on the causes of crime, complemented by the reinforce-ment of law enforcement actions, is the key strategy of such a coalition. The aim is to make each resident and each social organization an actor in the preven-tion of crime.
In addition, there is a need for the integration of envi-ronmental designs and urban development, as well as management solutions for crime prevention.

URbAN PlANNiNG AND MANAGEMENT
‘National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy � shall promote the development of appro-priate technologies for environmental management’ (Page �99 of the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy.)
Nigeria’s inability to properly plan and manage rapid urbanization - now at 50% - has resulted in uncontrol-lable growth in all major cities and towns. It has led to the decay of inner cities, a growth of shanty towns, especially in peri-urban areas. The inability to plan these cities to accommodate an informal economy (which stands at 60-70%) has had a negative impact on the landscapes of these towns. In turn, it has limited their contribution to the national economy. Poor planning is also inimical to good governance and security.
In 199�, Nigeria adopted an Urban Policy that was revised again in �004. The revised urban policy seeks to promote a dynamic system of urban settlements that will foster economic growth, promote efficient ur-ban and regional development, and ensure improved standards of living and well-being for all Nigerians. The Land policy was reinforced in 199� by the Ur-ban and Regional Planning Decree, which sought to promote orderly development of land in all cities to achieve sustainable development.
In line with the provisions of the 1999 Constitution, that give the power to states to legislate on planning matters, the Supreme Court ruled in �004 that the 199� Urban and Regional Planning Decree should no longer be implemented as national legislation. This landmark judgment created a legal vacuum for land use planning and development control at both the state and local government levels. The states need immediate assistance in procuring a robust planning legislation, without which the control of development might be impossible or lack any legal basis.
While Nigeria continues to experience rapid urban population growth, this is not being matched by adequate human settlement planning and manage-ment. Nigeria’s urban population rose from a mere 3.� million (10.6%) in 1953 to a staggering 70 million in �007 (50%). Based on the minimum population of �0,000 inhabitants defined for urban centres in Nigeria, the number of cities rose from 56 in 1953 to 843 in �004 with 19 cities having population numbers of one million and above. Many Nigerian cities do not have up-to-date city development strategies for urban management. This is due to the lack of capac-ity and resources to plan, due to ineffective develop-ment control and to inadequate institutional and legal frameworks for promoting good urban governance. Political administration in the country is based on the administrative boundaries of local governments, states and the federal government.

This arrangement makes it difficult to govern large metropolitan cities like Lagos, Ibadan and Kano as the administrative boundaries of these cities transcend many local governments. This arrangement makes joint planning and management of cities very difficult if not impossible. It also compounds the problem of aggregating data on a city-by-city basis.
FOCus area 3: PRO-POOR lAND AND HOUSiNG
SHElTER AND bASiC SERviCES
‘Lack of sustained planning effort and funding of the housing sector and lack of city planning are the major problems facing the cities’ (National Economic Em-powerment and Development Strategy �, P. �36)
The Federal Government adopted its first housing Policy in 1991, which was reviewed in �004. The aim of the revised housing policy stands ‘to ensure that all Nigerians own or at least have decent, safe and sani-tary housing at an affordable cost’. There are several challenges facing the attainment of national housing for all Nigerians. The country’s rapid urbanization is exacerbating the problems of rising urban poverty,
with housing shortages, poor infrastructure and poor sanitation. Poverty in Nigeria ranges between 5�% and 70%. Seventy percent of urban dwellers in Nigeria live in slums. The housing shortage in Nigeria is esti-mated to affect between 14 and 16 million people. About 46% of the population has no access to safe drinking water while an estimated 47% lack adequate sanitation services. This places Nigeria within a group of countries that has one of the most unfavourable social-environmental conditions in the world.
Municipal waste management is a major problem in Nigeria as most urban centers lack adequate refuse collection systems. Most households resort to open and indiscriminate dumping. Nigeria has adopted a National Sanitation Policy to effectively manage 95% of its waste by �015. The �005 Millennium Develop-ment Goals Report for Nigeria noted that if drastic ac-tion is not taken, Nigeria might not achieve the target to achieve environmental sustainability. The country has undertaken several reforms in housing finance and delivery including the re-organization of the Federal Housing Authority, Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria and the Urban Development Bank, but these have only yielded modest results. Nigeria is, however, committed to slum upgrading and capacity building initiatives, such as, housing finance, infrastructure, and service provision.

COUNTRY PROGRAMME DOCUMENT �008 – �009 11
United Nations Human Settlements ProgrammeRegional Office for Africa and the Arab States

The goal of the UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document is to promote urban development and provide management by achieving the goals of the Habitat Agenda. This includes providing adequate shelter for all, sustainable human settlements, management, and the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals in poverty eradication and improving the life of slum dwellers. It also seeks to support Nigeria in attaining the goals of the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy, State Economic Empowerment and Development Strategies and adequate shelter for all.
UN-HABITAT’s strategy will focus on selected areas that are practically feasible and desirable, and which will have a lasting impact. The strategy seeks to promote urban development planning and management through the preparation and adoption of structural plans that will serve as a strategy for tackling many of the socio-economic problems facing Nigerian cities. It also seeks to help in linking them with slum upgrading, provision of water and sanitation, employment generation, good governance and crime prevention.
sTraTegy
the table above presents the sub-sectoral priorities of the nigeria un-Habitat country Programme documents: urban Management and aid coordination, Land tenure, Housing and urban Security. Proposed interventions to each sub-section are presented in the context of a broader development highlighted by the united nations development assistance framework and other multilateral programming instruments.

NATiONAl DEvElOPMENT GOAlS AND PRiORiTiESThe First Common Country Assessment for Nigeria, conducted in �001, recognized the linkage between population distribution, urbanization and environmental problems. In particular, the Common Country Assessment noted that if urbanization is not properly planned it will lead to major environmental problems that will impact negatively on overall development.
The first United Nations Development Assistance Framework (�00�-�008) for Nigeria, which was extended by one year and derived from the first Common Country Assessment, took into account national development priorities and the need for a greater impact on the development and well-being of Nigerians. It accorded priority to intervention in three thematic areas, namely: (i) Promoting good governance and human rights (ii) Reducing poverty and (iii) Reducing the incidence of HIV/AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis and other infectious diseases.
COUNTRY PROGRAMME DOCUMENT �008 – �009 13
nig

The Mid-term Review of the United Nations Development Assistance Framework of �005, recommended the introduction of a new outcome on urban development to fill a major gap. The new United Nations Development Assistance Framework (�009-�01�), under preparation, has gone through several consultative processes and four areas of programme intervention were agreed upon that should be included: (a) Governance and accountability, (b) Productivity and employment, (c) Transforming service delivery; and (d) Crisis and insecurity. Cross cutting issues included respect for human rights, gender equality, environmental sustainability and public-private partnership.
The First National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy (�004-�007), which is Nigeria’s Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper, is aimed at poverty reduction through wealth creation, employment generation,
poverty reduction and value re-orientation. It was designed to empower the people, promote private enterprise, and change the way government works. An evaluation of National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy, shows that it failed to successfully link poverty reduction strategies to environmental sustainability such as human settlement issues of housing, land and air pollution, solid waste management.
However, the process of National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy �, (�008-�011) was based on extensive consultation.
The goal of the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy �, is to focus on the commitment of ‘Nigerians’ to attain the position of one of the world’s �0th largest economies by �0�0. In this respect, the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy �, is broad and comprehensive and aimed at correcting critical gaps in the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy, largely by focusing on aspects of human settlement issues such as urbanization, regional development, housing, environment, infrastructures, gender and ICT. Specifically, under the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy �, the goal of housing intervention is to:
Contribute to poverty reduction, to employment generation, to wealth creation and environmental sustainability, by providing adequate, affordable and secure housing both in urban and rural areas in Nigeria.
To reduce by 50% in �011 the population of slum dwellers from the present figure of 66% to 33% and to provide opportunities for jobs, social services and welfare in housing projects’.
President Umoru Yar ‘adua in May �007, unfolded a 7-point Agenda of his administration for the next four years (�007-�011). The 7-point Agenda identifies real sector development, physical infrastructure, human capital development, security, law and electoral reform, combating corruption/improving governance, regional development.

The sub-themes of the Agenda cover several aspects of human settlements including housing, water and sanitation, transportation, erosion, mega-city development, environment, desertification, the Niger Delta, gender and the need to combat corruption in service delivery.
UN-HAbiTAT’S PROPOSED STRATEGY fOR THE SECTORThere is little doubt that Nigeria’s urban issues warrant immediate attention. However, it is important that UN-HABITAT takes into account Nigeria’s comparative advantage of available resources as well as the proposed interventions by other UN-Agencies in the current United Nations Development Assistance Framework. It can then formulate a strategy focusing on selected areas that practically are feasible and that will have a lasting impact. The strategy must be to promote urban development planning and management through the preparation and adoption of structural plans that will serve as strategic approaches to tackling many of the socio-economic problems facing Nigerian cities. They must also seek to link them with slum upgrading, the provision of water and sanitation, employment generation, good governance and crime prevention.
The thematic areas that UN-HABITAT has highlighted provide the basis for the last chapter of Nigeria’s UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document (implementation arrangements.) All of UN-HABITAT’s proposed and ongoing programmes can be seen to fit within one of three thematic areas. They are as follows:
Governance and accountability
Transformation of service delivery
Productivity and livelihood
Security and conflict
By addressing these areas the UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document hopes to achieve its goal of promoting urban development and management by satisfying the Habitat Agenda, which includes adequate shelter for all, sustainable human settlement development, management, and the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals of poverty eradication and an improvement in the life of slum dwellers. The programme also hopes to support Nigeria in attaining the goals of the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy, State Economic Empowerment and Development Strategies and adequate shelter for all.

PROGRAMME ObjECTivESTo manage the Habitat Programme Support Office project and to use it as a window to provide logistical, technical, managerial and advisory services to government at the three-tier level, to identify programmes for development, implementation and monitoring and mobilize resources.
To implement the Anambra State Project and to promote physical urban development planning and management in at least 6 additional states by �009, to accelerate their contributions to economic growth by adopting city’s development strategies to enhance the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals, the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy, the State Economic Empower ment and Development Strategy and environmental protection.
To contribute to the implementation of WACII Project and to develop a national programme for slum upgrading to leverage resources from donors to contribute to a reduction by 50% of the population of urban dwellers living in slums by �011 through developing a National Programme on Slum upgrading and housing delivery for Nigeria by �009. This will be in collaboration with Cities Alliance and World Bank to mobilize USD $ 600 million targeting at least six states.
To collaborate with other donor partners in developing programmes/projects and in mobilizing resources for UN-HABITAT outputs identified in United Nations Development Assistance Framework in the areas of urban security, service delivery, productivity and employment and governance and accountability.

KEY PRiNCiPlESAs a specialized United Nations agency, UN-HABITAT provides technical support to programme implementation at the tier government level and will charge appropriate fees as per United Nation rules and regulations for services rendered.
The general policies and procedures governing procurement, recruitment and contracting of inputs as set out by the United Nations Office in Nairobi shall be used for project implementation. UN-HABITAT works under the Memorandum Of Understanding signed with the Federal government of Nigeria establishing the Habitat Programme Office in Nigeria to execute the various projects. Stakeholders are involved in programme identification, implementation and review through consultations, working groups, and membership of project implementation committees.
The Habitat Programme Support Office as the country office of UN-HABITAT, in line with the terms of reference that established it, will provide advocacy, advisory, technical and managerial services to government at the three-tiers and be involved in the formulation, appraisal, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of all projects.
iNfORMATiONThe Habitat Programme Support Office has handled a lot of requests from the general public. To boost this profile, there have been requests to develop a website for the office, which will be linked with the global intranet. A national consultant is working on a media strategy and the development of a website for disseminating information about the activities and projects of the office.
The Habitat Programme Support Office is committed to setting up a small library of publications on human settlements that government officials and researchers can use as we are presently inundated with requests on research materials.
The information dissemination mechanism will be selected on a case-by-case, using local media, targeted and massive distribution, community channels and others as required.

Habitat Programme Manager in Nigeria: Mr. Johnson Falade (Johnson. [email protected])
The Habitat Country Programme Document for Nigeria outlines the main objectives and priorities for UN-HABITAT. In collaboration with the government and other United Nations Agencies, the overall aim of this UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document is to promote the Habitat Agenda.
UN-HABITAT plays an active role in urban development and urban policy. Through partnerships with the Federal Ministry of Environment, Housing and Urban Development, UN-HABITAT has assisted in identifying key urban issues, and areas needing support to improve the urban situation in Nigeria. Analysis of seven key sectors include: governance, land and housing, shelter and basic services, urban planning and management, housing/urban development and the environment, vulnerability reduction and capacity development.
The Nigeria UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document provides an overview of the national policy and the areas of intervention that Government must address in meeting its urban development challenges.
The multilateral programming instruments presented in the Nigeria UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document that help to guide national priorities and United Nations system priorities are the Poverty Reduction Strategy, the Medium-Term Development Plan and the Third United Nations Development Assistance Framework. Nigeria’s national development goals and priorities are based on the Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers, the nation’s main development policy framework. The Papers support poverty reduction and economic growth.
The three focus areas of UN-HABITAT and the government of Nigeria, highlighted in the UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document, are governance and accountability, service delivery/
productivity and livelihood and security and conflict. Taking into account the United Nations Development Assistance Framework and other United Nations system activities, the country programme in Nigeria currently contains a strategy to approach urban issues through the development of long-term development strategies. It incorporates health, education and food security concerns as priority areas of the United Nations system as a whole.
The UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document presents a clear programme designed to guide UN-HABITAT’s current and future work in Nigeria.
