Climate change adaptation and sustainable infrastructure development are important in Nigeria due to different climate zones poor soil types like expansive clays, laterite peat grounds. The review highlights the necessity of incorporating into processes minimise potential impacts direct phenomena, including extreme rainfall, flood, temperature. It emphasises importance geotechnical engineering tackling such challenges advancing tools frameworks required for constructing structures that successfully counter undesirable responses caused by change. used literature search methods data synthesis identify empirical works explore problems associated with Nigeria's problematic soils their effects on infrastructures’ durability. organises results according categories introduces new interventions, emphasizing chemical mechanical stabilization improve overall structural resilience. also touches some areas policy regulation need reform provide broader guidelines investigations adoption materials construction. manuscript concludes implications recommendations implementing developing solutions climate-resilient against unpredictability concerning socio-economic activities human life.
