AN APPRAISAL OF SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT IN MINNA, NIGER STATE: POLICY AND PLANNING IMPLICATION TO NIGERIAN CITIES
Man’s environment is of immense importance and the management of the living environment has great health implications. The activities of man and his interaction with his environment result in the generation of different kinds of wastes. The most obvious is the Solid Wastes. A lot of areas in our cities have become an eyesore due to indiscriminate dumping and poor management of solid wastes. This has led to environmental degradation and pollution. The management of solid wastes presents particular challenges to city authorities in Nigeria because the volume of wastes generated in different cities has been increasing over the years. This paper, therefore, examines the magnitude of solid waste problems in Nigeria and the challenges of managing these wastes, with a view of assessing the policy and Planning Implication to Nigeria cities.
