   The importance of housing is so universally acknowledge that the United Nations declared 1986 international year of shelter. But so far, all efforts made, including building of housing estates by the government, have not solved the problem of inadequate housing. How could this be solved? The government should make provision of amenities to be getting in cheap rates, various building materials such as cement, roofing sheets, asbestos, as well as finishing materials such as paints and tiles. The government should build and sell the house at affordable prices and also look at the land use decree with a view of making it easier for people to obtain.
Some of the citizens don't have any reasonable work in order to mould a block talk more of building a house, if the government should invest more in employment, create more job opportunities, housing will not be an impending issue in the state.
