“…It could be inferred that 21.6% reason for reduction in residential property rental value in affected neighborhoods is attributed to ethnic violence. This finding is in consonance with the view of Aliyu et al (2011) and Uroko (2018) that opined that ethnic discrimination was identified among the main causes of violence in Southern Kaduna, Nigeria. However, the unexplained variables such as terrorism, kidnapping and political violence that accounted for the remaining 78.4% (error term), can be explored in future studies.…”

“…Residents in such violence-prone areas often tend to move out of those places to safer areas, leading to voids in such areas. In addition, the tendency for potential new tenants to avoid those places that are plagued with conflicts becomes high, this leads to lower levels of demand for properties in such areas which in turn leads to a drop in rental values (Dung-Gwom and Rikko, 2009; Aliyu et al , 2011 and Orekan, 2014).…”

“…None of the two papers’ focus is on terrorism, ethno-religious crisis and social unrest effects on residential property rental value. Other indigenous studies such as Dung-Gwom and Rikko (2009), Aliyu et al (2011), Orekan (2014) and Uroko (2018) that consider the effect of ethno-religious crisis and social unrest on property value did not examine the trend in change in rental value of different types of residential properties due to urban violence. These studies particularly focused on the land and housing markets which entails a capital value and not on the rental market which entails a rental value.…”

Purpose The paper aims to examine the influence of urban violence on residential property rental value in Kaduna metropolis. This is motivated by the spate of insurgency and the attendant destructions of land and properties in the past few years in the study area. Design/methodology/approach This paper adopted a survey of key sites of urban violence and also a total enumeration of all the 67-estate surveying and valuation firms in the study area to elicit from them vital information on trends on rental from 2011 to 2019. The data obtained were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential methods of statistical analysis. Findings The result of this study revealed that among other sources of urban violence, violence fueled by ethnic affiliations/convictions is the only significant factor that influenced rental value of residential property in the study area. The regression analysis shows that ethnic violence accounted for 21.6% of the variability observed in residential property rental value over the period of study. Furthermore, the correlation result showed that ethnic violence is negatively correlated (−0.458) and significantly related to residential property rental value. Practical implications This study concluded that the emergence of urban violence in Kaduna metropolis contributed to a fall in the rental value of residential property in the study area. This study thus suggested policy directions that could engender harmonious coexistence among different ethnic groups in the study area. Originality/value This study is expected to enhance improvement in residential property rental value in Kaduna metropolis through increase assurance to security of lives and property.

“…Meanwhile, the study focused on ethno-religious violence only without giving consideration to other types of violence. In addition, Aliyu, Kazim and Martin (2011) showed that ethno-religious violence has strong connections to residential choices that contributed to the separation of religious groups in Christian and Muslim domains in the residential areas of Jos metropolis [13]. However, the study neither analyses different types of violence that existed in the study area nor the trend of violence in the study area.…”

This study analysed various types of violence in Kaduna state in the last one decade; analysed the trend of violence in the study area from 2011 to 2021; and examined the causes of violence in the study area with a view to providing information that could guide the formulation of adequate security measures in the study area. This study utilized information from both primary and secondary data. A total of 300 questionnaires were administered, however, 198 were retrieved, giving a response rate of 65 per cent. Information on the causes of violence was obtained as primary data, while information on the trend and nature of violence was collected as secondary data. The data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics. The results showed that kidnapping violence was the most common type of violence, accounting for 36.36 per cent of all incidents of violence in the study area and that among the factors responsible for violence in the study area, the land use/ownership factor was the most significant with violence index of 3.88 while access to weapon factor was less significant with violence index of 1.27. The study recommends that Government should adopt an egalitarian approach in the distribution of economic resources in the study area.

Utilization of Industrialized Building System (IBS) becomes increasingly dominant in the construction of affordable housing in Malaysia. Theoretically, utilization of IBS system can benefit to reduce the affordable housing price due to the less labor involvement and short constructions time. However, current IBS usage in housing construction still cannot fulfill the affordable housing demand especially in term of price and housing quality. Recent study reveals the lack adoption of IBS component in construction industry mainly caused by poor perception among stakeholder toward the system. Hence, some alterations in the supply of the IBS component essential to being prepared in order to reach the price target to permit all middle-income groups to own the quality house. Construction industry also can explore the other types of IBS system focusing on lightweight types such as wood or steel system which clearly could give benefit to the housing industry on faster works and high housing quality. Due to strong and durable characteristic of lightweight steel panel, it can be seen as an alternative component to be explored to enhance construction practices of affordable housing project. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to identify the potential of lightweight steel panel system to be implemented for affordable housing project. Accordingly, for the highlight in reducing affordable housing price integrate with provision of good quality housing this research focus on feedback from developer about the proposed lightweight steel panel system. This research conducted an interview with six project managers with more than three years working experience in housing construction project at South of Peninsular Malaysia. Developer’s experience in affordable housing project mainly for landed house is coinciding because of lightweight steel panel system suitability for not more than two stories house. The result reveals that, respondent prefer to the advantages of lightweight steel panel system in term of faster installation works, low maintenance work, flexibility and smart construction. In conclusion, the ability of the system to decrease housing price at the same time sustain the desired quality of housing will increase ability and satisfaction for middle-income earner to own the house.
