I understand your situation bros and I have once being in your shoe especially if you migrate to Lagos as a graduate without any other source of income. My question is do you have any vocational skill? If not, I will advice you to go and get Okada because this is the only means through which you can get instant money to finance your job search on daily basis.

Being in Lagos involve something that will be fetching you money on day to day basis. For instance, you can ride okada for two weeks consecutively and decided to use the third week for job search through the money you get.

Job search in Lagos is a 'great job' itself: be strong and courageous.

Please suggest another

My reason is simple, if you go back to vocational training, it will take you much time to the extent that you might not be able to concentrate on job searching anymore. However, it will consume your money and you might still need much money to set yourself up.

To me that is the best option, unless you have someone feeding/accommodating you.

What skill do find suitable?

how about you do Factory work or any other menial jobs just for a while. Another sure way is to do security guard all for a while, while you get yourself together. Even sometimes you might have to drop your high certificate just for a while and make do with some low paying white or blue collar jobs. If you can work in a security company either as a security or as a supervisor depending on how tough and smart you are, then contact me as I have got links with them.

If you mean the security work, of course its shift meaning either day or night depending on your shift. but if its factory work, you will hardly find any that is only day because it always on shift.

Salary range for the security starts from 22k
