Office records rise in urban migration

This was stated by Executive Director for Urbanisation, Max Kep.

“It is an irreversible tide; a one-way traffic into the cities,” he said.

He pointed out the urban issues and challenges, which include mass migration to town, poverty, drugs, prostitution, land shortages, housing shortage, squatting, marginalising of locals, environmental pollution, lack of resources and capacities to manage issues.

“More towns and cities are becoming informal in housing, marketing and other economic activities.”
