Truth be told, if you can adapt to Kano way of living I. e living in a Muslim community, if you can also stay away from home, the Kano can be a home far away from home. in my last post , someone asked me to compare Kahuna with Kano, the I haven't been to Kaduna , I just passed it. But I took time for the purpose of this post to go down to Kaduna and make a good finding, and I can tell you that Kano beats Kaduna hands-down.

Kano Is a big city home to most companies including dangote , there are diverse product in Kano than in other part of the country, there are companies, schools, hospitals, institutions in Kano. take a walk round Kano, submit your CVs and you will surely be called.

Apart from that, the business life in Kano is another advantage, they are about 3 million persons in Kano and as such a large market. if you have business mindset, am sure you will make money here in Kano. I have Corp members who import things from east and west and sell it in Kano. Also, you can learn many things, sewing, decorations etc in Kano almost free of charge. I don't know How else to talk about this, when you come, I think it will be so obvious.

Think about this, you can move things from Kano down to east or west, you can do many things. Just think of what you want. think of life after NYSC, just meditate on all these things. Kano is a fertile ground for you. yes you

Serve in Kano of Islamic sharia criminal codes? Islamic sharia criminal codes include death punishment for blasphemy, stoning women to death for adultery, cutting off fingers of petty thieves, etc.


Who wants to serve in the sharia states?

Who from the South of Nigeria can now take off to settle in the sharia states in the north?


Look o. By adopting sharia criminal codes, the sharia states don't even know that they have sentenced themselves and their area to backwardness. For now, the sharia states survive by crude oil revenues which the sharia areas get undue large quantities due to the undue large number of states and local government areas created by northern military dictators in the area.

But sharing oil revenues as done these years cannot last much longer.

90% of people's perception that Kano is volatile is not true, coz I grew up from a northern Christian family in kano.

I can boldly say it, I knew about 15 corpers that ar currently engaging in quite lucrative jobs here in Kano after their Nysc. One Ifeanyi is ofcourse working with the state Science and Technicals schools board as a civil servant since 2008 and has acquired land and living peacefully with his neighbours _majority ar muslims_, of which am very sure is difficult for a non indigine from north to work in the state civil service of states like abia, delta, imo and so.

The only serious problem u may encounter apart from means of communication is NEVER to joke wit their way of life, most importantly, don't abuse or derogate their prophet or Islam, coz if u try it ehn, believe me, u will not live 2 see 2morow. And for d male corpers enh, refrain from any rlntship or trying to toast deir daughters. Then u ar good to go!


I could remember when we were posted to abia -umunna bende, those market women were shouting BOKO HARAM at us despite about 3 of us Christians frm North. - This does not happen in kano.

OP @ mrphysics you stayed for 1year in Kano township and you're already concluding?.

And to think of it, people are already falling for it. There is more to Kano state to kwankwasiyaa and dangote.

Even if you mind your business, don't toast their babes, don't insult their religion, they will still find a way to deal with you the moment they know you're a Christian ,they are majorly illiterates.

If you have a choice,stay back in the South because you can never comfortably raise a Christian family down in kano.in the event of a small disturbance,they will find you the infidel and use as collateral damage

I've been here for 2yrs now



Thank you

@Op, hope you not under any threat over there? You sounded strange going by your recent post.
Well, ride on bro. we solidly in your front.
My question is; How is Kano state cost of living for Corpers in this time of recession.
2. How much is accommodation over there I.e A room, Self-contained, a 3 bed-room flat.
3. How easy it is to probably start a family over there in terms of living standard.
Thanks.

That is the key issue with the north. ILLITERACY And lack of exposure (inferiority complex too) if we tackle this, then the north will be better.
