The surge of coronavirus pandemic, a respiratory problem in the world has come too rapidly and poor housing quality is believed to have the greatest impact on its spread. This is due to the fact that because people spend more time in houses. This paper, therefore, examined the connection between housing quality and the coronavirus pandemic in Nigeria in order to improve the living standards of the houses. Historical A historical survey method was employed and data was collected from secondary sources. The paper found out that there are various dimensions to housing quality problems which that have impacts on residents such as slum and squatter settlement, housing condition conditions and overcrowding among others. The paper, therefore, suggests that there should be more renewal policies and satellite town development by private and public organisations and the need for infrastructural development, while architects need to provide functional spaces and standard houses to allow enough air into the building to avoid the future respiratory problem | |
