Abstract: | Urbanization is not a modern phenomenon in Africa. It has been occurring since about 10,000 years back when Africans began founding permanent settlements, which paved way for the first urban revolution around the Nile valley in the region of Alexandria in Egypt. Urbanization in Nigeria can be traced back to the involvement on the country in medieval international trade. These trading activities resulted to the growth of the grassland areas of the north and the forest land in the south-western area of the country. |
