The way the individual perceives himself and how the perceived by the large society. Is the measure of all good (or bad) things in life that will come to him and his family (Agbola, 1995). 

The importance of housing in human development has been well documented by scholars.  The position of scholars varys depending on the aspect of housing each one delves into.  Omirin (1998), researched into land a accessibility and low income house building in metropolitan Lagos.

However, the fact remain that Enugu Metropolis has been the administration centre for the then Eastern region, Enugu metropolis is occupied mainly by government workers with low income. This position makes for their use.  They therefore resort to borrowing from both formal and informal sources in order to find money for housing development and also Enugu metropolis is made up Enugu.
