Özet: The use of Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) in Nigeria as a procurement method for the public projects came with great expectation that the critical social and economic infrastructures would be addressed soon. But after a few years of implementation, there is still no appreciable progress in exploring the PPP method to develop the critical public infrastructure. The objective of this paper is to determine the impact of PPP projects on the socio-economic factors in the immediate community. The study was carried out using the review of case studies of ongoing PPP projects. Four cases were reviewed to obtain the relevant information. The study revealed that the projects improved the socio-economic status of the immediate community significantly due to an increase in economic activities. The value of properties also improved exponentially. It is recommended that government should help address the challenges of the implementation and provide possible solutions for more project deliveries. Keywords: Developing countries; environmental impact; public infrastructure; public-private partnership.
