Cooperative housing is an alternative housing model that provides a foundation for community building and shared responsibility through innovative housing design and inclusive resident governance structures. This study seeks to explore the potential of cooperative housing as a model that will help to address the housing challenges in Nigeria. In particular, the paper examines the, the nature of housing delivery in Nigeria, co-operative values, principle, operationalization, types and benefits of the system; and goes further to apply this model (co-operative housing) in Nigeria in the face of present socio-economic realities. A well organized and supported co-operative society will go a long in boosting the nature of housing delivery in Nigeria.
