Book excerpt: Nigeria as a nation is presently being faced with numerous problems emanating from lack of rule of law, so also the challenges of building an enduring and sustainable democracy that has become a hard nut to crack. For a just and fair society to be achieved, it must be built on credible political institutions worthy of sustaining our towns and cities, which must allow democratic values to deepen in such a way that, rule of law and due process will replace rule of force and arbitrariness, that has become so endemic in Nigerian system and refuses to be relegated to the background. However the fledging civilian to civilian rule and urban good governance will depend largely on the extent to which both the leaders and the led are able to operate under the tenet of human rights and due process as opposed to regime of arbitrariness, lawlessness, corruption and graft, that has continue to earns the country a pronounced position in the comity of backward and corrupt nations of the world.

This book was released on 2023-11-25 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study contends that proper urban environmental management strategies are vital to the sustainable development of cities in any country. It demonstrates that cities as drivers of sustainable development can be positive forces in support of social equality, cultural vitality, economic prosperity and environmental sustainability. It takes a primary focus on Ibadan, Nigeria. Most cities in sub-Saharan Africa have become badly degraded. Leaders and planners rarely fully grasp the meaning of the concept of sustainable development, and fail to combine their bids to achieve economic development with urban environmental management strategies. The book describes how reformation and transformation are still possible, in Ibadan and elsewhere, and discusses the Sustainable Ibadan Project (SIP) as a methodology to turn Ibadan into a globally competitive and sustainable city. It will be of interest to urban planners worldwide, and to researchers and students of the Global South.
