Produktbeschreibung
Poverty is so endemic in African cities. While available statistics put the Nigeria's poverty level at 70% as at 2004 (UNDP), a number of real indicators show that the current poverty level is actually higher. In view of these overwhelming problems, and in order to specifically tackle Lagos state - Nigeria's Economic capital, the Federal government came up with the Lagos Megacity Projects to address the problem of urban poverty. While so much have already been written concerning urban sustainability and environmental management issues, targeted at Lagos State and other upcoming Megacities in Africa, this study differs in context, though relatively in line of study, it is devoted to evaluating the after effects - the cost and benefit implication of the Megacity Project spill over on the adjourning villages around and about the town-Badagry. This study is aimed primarily at investigating the spill over effects of Megacity Project on the town called Badagry and not the Megacity itself but focusing on Agriculture and Tourism.
