Seven scales of measurement structured around percentage number of respondents having access to improved water source, refuse disposal method, health, education, electricity Supply and improved road construction and percentage number of residents whose buildings were no longer affected by flood were used as the basis of evaluation. The study revealed that 44,4%, 53.5% and 49.3% of the respondents respectively claimed to have access to improved water source, education and health while 54% claimed that their buildings were no longer prone to flood after slum renewal. Also, the average rating of the upgrading programmes by respondents indicated 74.2% for improved raad construction, 83.3% for better method of refuse disposal and 77.7% for improved electricity supply. The study thus concludes that any understanding of the slum redevelopment should incorporate slum dwellers assessment.enUpgraded, Slums Evaluation, Slum Dwellers, Lagos, NigeriaArticle
