Nigeria’s infrastructure deficit is projected to exceed $3 trillion over the next 30 years therefore Privately Initiated Infrastructure Proposals (PIIP) could be the critical lever for unlocking investor-led, commercially sustainable infrastructure projects.
In this publication, TEMPLARS Partner, Dayo Okusami, and Associate, Joshua Olorunmaiye, examine how PIIP enable investors and sponsors to originate projects, shape technical and commercial structures, and secure first-mover advantage within Nigeria’s evolving public–private partnership framework.
The analysis considers the 2025 Unsolicited Public–Private Partnership Process Guide, outlining project development requirements, due-diligence expectations, and the strategic opportunities available to private entities across energy, transport, digital and sub-national infrastructure.
The publication provides insight into risk allocation, environmental and social considerations, investment, and the commercial realities that drive bankable infrastructure development.
