THE EFFECTS OF RURAL URBAN MIGRATION ON PUBLIC UTILITY IN NIGER STATE (CASE STUDY OF WUSHISHI TOWN)
Abstract
ABSTRACT
Rural-urban migration occurs at varying rates in every country. Many
developing countries have a recent colonial past, which has tremendously
altered their structure and governance. The populations of countries around
the world are becoming increasingly urbanized. The process of urbanization
continues to be more rapid and massive, thereby challenging and affecting a
greater part of the world than ever before. The move from mainly rural society
to an urbanized world has also impacted on all aspects of human lives. In the
1950s less than one third of the human race were living in cities, but by 2020,
it is expected that two-thirds will live in cities and 90 percent of this will be
living in the cities of developing countries
