Abstract
Abstract.
The research examines the various scope of environmental health hazards prevailing in the
metropolis. The study aimed therefore to explore the ecological history of the city of Ilorin to
identify the social geography of different kinds of health hazards which may be confounded with
disease exposures. Of importance also is to examine how health and environmental conditions
are connected with poverty in cities and how these conditions have been (or can be) aggravated
by the trend of global environmental change. Data used was based on both primary and
secondary sources.Simple statistical tools like frequency tables, Percentages, Graphs and Plates were used to analyze the generated data.
