英文文献摘要：
Real estate sector has been one of the most important sectors of economic growth with public and private investment leading to intense demand for housing, land consumption and shortage of urban infrastructure. The study focussed on urban spatial pattern and infrastructural development in Akure, Nigeria. The choice of this location was based on the fact that Akure is experiencing a high pace of urbanization. As one of the fastest growing capital cities in Nigeria, Akure is facing stiff challenges in managing the urban growth leading to ineffective delivery of basic services. The methodology employed include stratification of the study area into three neighbourhoods namely, low, medium and high density. Multi-stage sampling technique was then used to select and elicit information on residential properties, their occupants and the state of infrastructure. Descriptive statistics were used in the analysis of the data. The study revealed that most dwellings are lacking in essential infrastructures in the high density and the situation differs as we approached the low-density neighbourhoods. Based on this, the paper proposes strategies for tackling the problem of infrastructure decay in the capital city. These include urban renewal and public-private partnership approach to infrastructural development.

房地产行业一直是经济增长中最重要的部门之一，公共和私人投资导致了对住房、土地消费的旺盛需求和城市基础设施的短缺。研究的重点是尼日利亚阿库尔的城市空间格局和基础设施发展。选择这个地点是基于Akure正经历着高速城市化的事实。作为尼日利亚发展最快的首都城市之一，阿库尔在管理城市增长方面面临着严峻的挑战，导致基本服务的无效提供。采用的方法包括将研究区分层为三个社区，即低密度、中密度和高密度。然后采用多阶段抽样技术来选择和收集有关住宅物业、住户和基础设施状况的信息。资料的分析采用了描述性统计。研究显示，在高密度地区，大多数住宅缺乏必要的基础设施，而在低密度地区，情况则有所不同。在此基础上，提出了解决首都基础设施老化问题的对策。这些措施包括市区重建和公营部门与私营机构合作发展基础设施。
