For the members of staff of the four public housing agencies, the purposive sampling method resulted in the selection of 25 staff members and one senior staff of the post of Head of Department and above from each of the organizations. A total of 100 staff members of various designations and 4 senior officers comprising two Heads of Department, one Director and a Permanent Secretary were selected for data collection. Two sets of questionnaires were prepared, one for the residents of the housing units and the other for the staff of the four public housing organisations in Ogun State. The questionnaires had both closed and open-ended questions. The close ended questions elicited precise responses while the open ended ones allowed the respondents to provide detailed answers and explanations where appropriate. Data processing and analysis were carried out using computer and Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 15.0 for Windows. For the qualitative data derived mainly from the interviews and observations, non-statistical analytical tool such as content analysis was used. From the result of analyses of data findings revealed that Majority (more than 60%) of respondents in the four public housing agencies perceived the organizational capacity of the agencies in public housing delivery as adequate. More so, Most respondents in all the housing estates evaluated the cost of acquisition or rentage of houses in the public housing estates sampled in the study area as affordable. The researcher therefore recommends that Federal and State government should endeavour to make adequate availability of land resources. Government should enact policies that will enhance reduction in the cost of building materials.
