Accommodation is the only thing expensive.

Abuja is as cheap as other northern states. The inhabitants are not rich but they struggle to live in expensive houses imposed on them by government land acquisition laws

You have a point and I agree with you.

Ooooooshe!!! but the truth is your reasoning is like that because you worked hard for that money. The problem in Nigeria is the warped reward system and perspective.

Politicians and govt official are earning incomes they never imagine they'll earn so to spend becomes big deal even when their total input are sub par.

'The problem of Nigeria is not money but how to spend it' ~ Yakubu Gowon

If you visit most of the place OP mentioned you'll see more % are vacant. When you see those big buildings in, Lekki, Banana etc, they are owned by entrepreneurs who live in them but in Abuja, they are built like birds by poluticians (its no typo).

I have a friend who told me she can never live in Ikorodu, but would rather stay in her Ikoyi, move to Lekki or anywhere in that axis or kukuma leave the country all together. Perspective.

OP, kindly do a write-up for Ondo especially Akure. Kindly post a link if you have done something in the past.

There is no hope for this country.
