“…The findings revealed that the nature of constraints of land delivery process significantly impact on housing development in Taraba State. This is in agreement with earlier studies by Makinde (2014), Robinson (2013), Lee et al (2015) and Ndayirukiye and Takeuchi (2014). For instance, Makinde (2014) reported that nature of constraints are interconnected and impact various aspects of land acquisition and development.…”

“…For instance, Makinde (2014) reported that nature of constraints are interconnected and impact various aspects of land acquisition and development. Also, Robinson (2013) discovered that bureaucracy and administrative bottlenecks in land administration processes poses a serious challenge in terms of obtaining permits, approvals and clearances from multiple government agencies negatively impact on housing development. Similarly, Lee et al (2015) reported that lack of comprehensive spatial planning exacerbates the constraints on land delivery processes.…”

“…Difficulty of access to land is a factor militating against housing development in Nigeria. In addition, Robinson (2013) pointed out that bureaucracy and administrative bottlenecks in land administration processes poses a serious challenge. Stressing further that obtaining permits, approvals, and clearances from multiple government agencies can be time-consuming and burdensome.…”

A combination of a growing urban population, lack of an efficient mortgage system, poverty, increasing construction costs, high inflation and declining household income, have made access to decent and affordable housing difficult for many Nigerians. Hence, the aim of this paper is to investigate the nature of constraints of land delivery process for housing development in Taraba State, Nigeria using appropriate standard techniques after acquiring data from primary and secondary types and sources of data. From the results, 20.5% pointed out that complex land tenure system was a constraint to land delivery process for housing development in Taraba State, 33% of the agreed that insufficient infrastructure constitutes the nature of constraint while 20.2% of the population agreed that lack of coordination constitutes to the nature of constraint while the remaining 26.2% maintained that insecurity is the bane of the nature of constraint of land delivery process for housing development in the study area. Needless to say, majority of respondents agreed alongside with responses from questionnaire that nature of constraints of land delivery process negatively impact on housing development in the study area. Also, the Chi-Square p-value (Sig) was .000 which implies that there is a significant impact of nature of constraint of land delivery on housing development in Taraba State. Based on the findings, the study recommends that insecurity should be eliminated as it contributes largely to land delivery process as farmers/herders conflicts, kidnapping, communal crises are rampant in the state. Also, Government at all levels especially Taraba State government should look into the land tenure system practiced in the state in order to checkmate its complexities.
