Enugu is a cool place to serve. You are guaranteed to save money on transportation in der.

I once visited Enugu for an appointment. I had to enter a bus going to from Holyghost to an inner town(where innoson company is) can't remember the name. It was quite a long journey. I paid the conductor and to my surprise, the guy was giving me change. So i asked him how much for such a long journey and he told me N30. I was shocked. Wat i would pay about N200-300 here in Lagos.
Enugu is a cool place to be

Bros you can lie ooo. Am based in Enugu. Transportation is quite on the low side (with bus though) But if na via drop, then they might have charged you a such. Holy ghost to shoprite is 30 naira, if you bargain well, they fit collet 20 self, but if na drop either with Keke or cab, that one depends on your bargaining strength.

Anything that spells Benue please flee from it.

The environment is very dusty and sunny. No state allawee, poor business environment. I even wonder why they call the state food basket of the nation The only thing I see here is plenty of yams and oranges. undecided I never liked yam my whole life so to me there's no food here.

Will you believe it if I tell you my PPA Doesn't have light? I mean electricity has not gotten to that area embarassed no hygiene water, no proper toilet facilities. our toilet gat no roof angry the road is not even as nice as what we call "Bush paths" from where I come.

Unless u're posted to Makurdi, the state capital you can never enjoy benue state. IMO
my guy calm down, some of those element are in all the states, but we are in pace an we thank God for that.

Were you expecting CAB to be free or cheap? Its luxurious cab for christ sake and not Cabu Cabu plus Agbani is a rural city relatively far frim Enugu.
Holy ghost to shoprite is N30 and the highest amount you will pay as bus fare within Enugu city is N70 unless on few occassions when the bus drivers decide to exploit people or there is fuel scarcity when it gets to N100. Enugu is a relatively cheap city considering how developed and hush within Nigerian standard it is.

Are you talking about cab? Because if you follow bus, from peace park to shoprite is 30 box o. The most expensive bus transport I have paid is from Garki to holyghost which is 70 box.

''Don't be shock'' is the best you can get of their graduates in that state. You can't dispute all I have pointed out in my post, young man. As a result of the woeful standard of living there, it'll interest you that I've opted to continue my service there in absentia!!!
