Abstract
The city has always held a magnetic attraction for all manner of men. To urban dwellers, it is a home and a recreational centre. To rural dwellers, it is a market place for their produce and a shopping centre. To foreign visitors, it is a stopping place on their journey to the country and a source of souvenirs. To the unemployed and to the criminal, it offers work and opportunities. If it happens to be the administrative capital of the state, it is likely to contain the major political and economic institutions of the country and, invariably, major national policies are decided there. In almost all countries, the city is the centre and symbol of modernisation.
