Question

Discuss on the major problem of urban centres of ethiopia

Answer 1

Answer: Urban centers in Ethiopia are ridden by a variety of socio-economic issues such as illiteracy, unemployment, and especially poverty.

Explanation: They can also lack environmental management, lack of stability in infrastructure and buildings, as well as lack of investment in the local human population.  

While there has been an increase in construction, the quality of construction itself has been poor as the government has felt pressure to rapidly build in order to meet demand and immediate needs.  However this can mean very costly rehabilitation of the faulty construction in the future.  

In addition, in urban Ethiopia, women out number men which has contributed to the poverty level as their main source of employment is agriculture.  

Furthermore, many times there is only one main road within the urban centers which contributes to a lack of infrastructure and overcrowds the area.

Finally, there is also a lack of post secondary education and medical facilities.
