One of the challenges of the 21st century is how to achieve a sustainable urban strategy to deal with the global waste crisis in both developed and developing countries. Civilization does not happen without waste. In Nigeria, the solid waste crisis of the city has expanded over the past 40 years, and the crisis has threatened the life support ability of the Earth. This paper presents information on the issue of solid waste management in the sustainable urban planning of the Gombe metropolis of Nigeria. Literature reviews and household surveys provide secondary data and primary data for research. Studies have shown that the increase in urban population has resulted in a large consumption pattern of urban residents. The findings indicate that insufficient funds to waste management agencies, poor urban planning, and a low level of household waste management awareness are major challenges leading to inefficient and inadequate solid waste management and It is a factor. Many attempts by government agencies, the private sector and families have not yet achieved desirable results. Participation in waste management by city planning personnel is not merely a substitute for waste disposal. However, technical knowledge, laws, policies, and strategies are necessary to minimize the current threat from this threat without affecting future development.

"But when planning sustainable, healthy and comprehensive cities and communities, solid waste management is a matter often ignored, the government is trying to address the issue of waste management of our people and the planet We have to take urgent action. "Research shows that investment in sustainable waste management is indeed economically important. Unrecovered waste and inappropriately treated waste will have a significant impact on health and the environment. The cost to resolve these effects is simpler than development and operation, and the cost of a suitable waste management system is many times higher.
