physical security.In order to attain good environmental sustainability in
Nigerian urban centres, the study has proffered the following recommendations. To achieve sustainable growth requires
that all stakeholders have to be actively mobilized towards ensuring that the
following strategies; some of which have been outlined in the UN Millennium
Project (2005), are realizable.The federal government on its part should ensure
that adequate funds are disposed for shelter provision for the vulnerable group
of the urban population. Housing finance policies should integrate the
lower-income group by providing easy access to long-term housing loans with
sustainable interest. Disbursement of such loans should be done through
recognized Cooperative Unions or community groups in other to encourage
self-help housing delivery.
