ABSTRACT
The study was designed to identify the problems and effects of old age in Udi Local Government Area of Enugu State. The research questions guided the study. A total of 30 males and females alike were used for the study. Questionnaire was used for data collection. The data collected were analysed using mean and standard deviation. Findings, therefore, revealed that many afflictions/diseases face the aged. Based on the findings, recommendations were made.
To carryout the work, the researchers used oral interviews and questionnaire copies of the questionnaire was made, based on means, end standard deviation.
Investigations reveal that causes of problems of the elderly people range from remote to immediate. The remote causes include poor family living arrangement such as establishment of polygamous families, giving birth to so many children and not being able to give them appropriate up bringing at the time convenient to the parents. However it was also discovered that there are some cause which are directly under the control of nature. Such are causes of childlessness death of a spouse or children and family disputes of different natures. Beside the above mentioned causes, other discoveries were made which revealed that the immediate causes include loneliness, poor health condition and lack of medical treatment, poor finance, inadequate housing accommodation and a lot of others.
It is hoped that having identified these problems of the old people, our present day youths will improve on the past, and in the future there will be less of these aspect of problems in our society.
