The study employed the qualitative analysis of secondary data related to Lagos State, while primary data were collected through personal interview and direct observation. Various factors ranging from economic, social, safety, environmental to political factors have been discovered to be responsible for the movement of people and resources from one place to another. It is categorized into push and pull factors. In Lagos State, Nigeria, high rent-fee, coastal lines, land-grabbing phenomenon, overpopulation and many other factors are found to be the immediate factors that propelled many people to reside in slums. Government made various efforts to curb the problems, however the problems persist. The study recommended that there is need for Government to build low-cost houses for people thereby digesting slums as well as curbing various nefarious acts by the downtrodden in the society.
