Land use results from mans activities on, and in relation to landOlomo1997 Cited in William 2005.The land use management components are planning control, land allocation and tenure, development control and land use change management. Effective land use management enhances efficiency of urban development.
The regional development plan of the Federal Capital Territory FCT Abuja, recommended the development of satellite towns to support the Federal Capital City FCC. The need for immediate development of Gwagwalada among the Satellite towns became apparent following the decision of the Federal Government in 1979 to allow the indigenes of the FCT to remain within the Territory. The goal of developing Gwagwalada satellite town is to support or supplement the Federal Capital City as part of the IPA recommendations on the implementation of the master plan for the city .Gwagwalada master plan was prepared by the Federal Capital Development Authority FCDA, in 1980. According to the Gwagwalada plan, the land use structure of the town is to consist of three districts which are further organized into neighborhoods and industrial land uses.
The land use proposals have not been adhered to in the land allocation process and also there is weak development control activities, which are not able to ensure compliance of developers to the land use plan. This is the common experience of Nigerian towns and constitutes a fundamental problem of sustainable urban development.
