CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES OF URBAN SLUM IN ADO METROPOLIS

ABSTRACT

This research work recognizes the fact that slum is a general problem to both the developing and developed worlds, while the urban areas attract people from the rural areas it gets over populated and gradually degrades and suffers.

This is however, greater in the developing countries than the developed ones. The developing world cities have immigrants who want to benefit from the urban life and hence, result in housing and infrastructure inadequacy, thereby causing poor environmental conditions, pollution and congestion, this is otherwise known as slum.

Slum which is a major environmental problem emanates and extend to other areas. Ado Metropolis experiences this problem.

In a bid to abate these problems, the researcher made possible recommendation like redevelopment strategy, enlightenment of slum dwellers.
