GentleMimi: Ile-Ife...true. Very calm,quiet and affordable place. After living in %Lagos all my life,a time off at Ife was well deserved. From Lagere to General(teaching hsptl) was N20. Lol. The highest T-fare then was N50.ife is quite boring i agree but those that think rent is cheap have to think twice- if you're planning on getting something close to either oau campus or the teaching hospital then be prepared to pay more... a 3 bedroom flat around here goes for about 250-300k now compared to some areas where you can get the same flat for between 100-140k. Light is a bit stable if you stay around mayfair, ibadan road or parakin. Its quite bad in the interior especially ilode, opa etc. i guess ondo road has the best power supply so far in ife... overall its just a laid back town and quiet.Transport is very cheap;a bus ride from campus to the very end of ife -opa area cost 70 naira max!!! |

kizbad: Many Nigerians grew up dreaming of living in Lagos or Abuja, which are known to be the most expensive cities in Nigeria. In reality, they can’t afford the cost of living in these cities because they come with high price tags. On the other hand, some Nigerians are looking for the cheapest cities to live in, places where our Naira will last a little longer, no matter their expenses.

Op that Onitsha pix is over 15years. Below is the current state of Onitsha city. Edit your pix! Besides Onitsha shouldn't be on this list at all. The city is most expensive city in the SE. Go to main market and price one small shop or touch a real estate at 3-3 zone or Trans Nkisi or Omaba not to talk of GRA and American Qyrs. 2 Likes

The city of Jos is relatively cheap as well, food stuffs in abundance, accomodation is quiet affordable, good roads #Thanks to Baba Jang#, Mehn but light scarce oo except for few areas like Rantya, State Low cost who can boast of 24 Hrs power supply. J town as it's popularly called is a social town with bars and recreational centres scattered all over. And hopefully we'll surely enjoy that peace we've been yearning for.

with all the various posts have read about osun state,I may guess Oau community had been alienated from the state in terms of cheap commodity. As a new student, I spend close to #300 to cook simple soup.being a student,i should consider that as paying through the nose. Maybe because am new to the system that's why am finding it difficult to trail a frugal like. For my suppose seniors that know how things work,I will really be glad for your advisory comment on how to manage resources minimally when dealing with stomach infrastructure. |

Re: 10 Cheapest Cities To Live In Nigeria by diamond4life: 11:28am On Jul 16, 2014 |
ile-ife, yes i was born and grew up there. very cheap, quiet, nice and a little boring but fast growing big town (or city as you may want to call it). you can get a 4 bedroom apartment for as low as #100k to #120k at eleyele or parakin (two of the most expensive and neatest residential quarters), even my friends got one 2 yrs ago for #70k, though not in those areas i mention above, and transportation (via a commercial 10-seater bus) from toll-gate(ibadan rd) to opa-alakowe(ilesha rd) (end to end of the town) is just #60. but food in ife is not that cheap, not as cheap as in ibadan, ilorin, oyo or osogbo. because i have lived in those places also. |

EbuGeneral: In Aba, u can get a 3 bedroom flat at affordable price.. Ranging from 8k to 15k a month depending on de area and de building. OP why u no show us de real face of Aba? Places like ngwa road,Evina,Owerri Aba, Umuode, Ariaria etc. U come de show us GRA. Pls replace Onitcha with Asaba, most business people now come from Asaba, 33, Nkpor to Onitcha main market, etc... Pls where is Abakiliki? Asaba ke most pple doing bizness in osha stay in osha not asaba if u knw osha well u wil agree wit me that osha is filed up tha why pple take solace in suburban like nkpor,ogidi,nkwelle,awada,nsugbe, 33 housing,akpaka resevr @ the back of prison .traffic in asaba is killing coupled with the last year flood issue mst plle staying rent in okwei are back to osha population of pple that ran to asaba last 2yrs has reduce drastically with the a fore mention areas more occupied 1 Like |
