ABSTRACT

This research project is a very crucial study for the effective management of solid waste in Enugu urban. This study was motivated as a result of the adverse effect of undisposed and improperly managed solid waste on the environment and health of the people.

To solve this problem, both primary and secondary data were collected. The research instrument used in collecting the data were questionnaires, oral interview and persona observation. The respondents comprises of 15 ENSEPA officers and 333 of the various household in the urban city. In organizing and presenting data collected, tables and percentages were used. Various hypothesis were tested using the Z test.

Data analysis and interpretation give the following findings:

1.Effective management of solid waste needed a lot of money which is beyond the capabilities of ENSEPA.

2.Also the urban environment regulation control as it affect solid waste management have been more theoretical than substantial.

Based on the findings, the researcher recommended that:

a.The state government should consider strengthening its law and legislation on environmental abuse with a view to making them well defined and easily enforced.

b.Since financial is beyond the capacities of the agency, there is therefore need for a joint effect of the state and federal government in terms of finance in tackling this unfriendly issue of solid waste.

c.It was also recommended that ENSEPA should be privatized to ensure effective and efficient management of solid waste in the urban area of Enugu state.

The conclusion of the study is that there is need for the federal, state and local government to play defined roles in the management of urban solid waste to ensure an evolution of efficient and effective solid waste management system in Nigerian urban cities.
