The OP hasn't been to Ebonyi State, I guess that's why he made that conclusion about Osun.

Ebonyi State is one of the top 3 scantiest State in Nigeria, house rent is as low as 10k for a room self contain, even 3 bedroom flat is not more than 50k.... If you come outside to your street on a working day, it will be very quiet and deserted..... As everyone has either gone to farm or their trade.

Plus the light is great and Dave Umahi really tried in the construction of roads.

Osun still has a lot of population compared to Ebonyi State.

He should travel there and see things for himself.... And I'm not even from Ebonyi, but I've been there and can attest to this.
Are u for real? Ebonyi whr i did my nysc? The only thing u got right is scantiness of d hinterland. Ebonyi u will go two LG in stretch without a bank & a whole LG Hqtr wtout 1 private sch not to talk of other better paid jobs? i am frm OSUN but i av to admit ABAK is more sophisticated than Osogbo. Aside Abak in EB, d rest of d state is village

I served in Osun state capital, Osogbo and I adopted that state as my second home. Things are not just cheap there, but the people are very hospitable and accommodating.

Osun is one of the states where you go to market with your Corper uniform, or it’s known that you are a stranger and you get the prices of products slashed, just because you are a stranger.

While there, I often wondered if it’s same country and if we operate same currency. There simple mindset too different from my Edo state own o
You no lie, na true I also serve in Osogbo the state capital. I am very proud of their steady electricity and cool brease of the city.

See don’t listen to the rubbish they’re saying about the house rent being cheap except you’re renting houses in Villages, if you’re coming to Osogbo, be ready to pay between 200-250k for a for a room and parlor selfcon only , then 2bdr , make sure your pocket is heavy enough for between 250-300k then add agency and agreement to it ! But if you’re willing to live in Remote areas of the city , then you will pay less than that , rent is no longer cheap in Osogbo as it used to years back . I live in Osogbo , Halleluyah estate to be precise and just recently I tried to see if I could get a new place but when I heard how much they were calling for me , I changed my mind and decided to renew my rent in my current place which I pay 250 for a 3bed but I rented the place 2years ago

Thank for clarifying this bro. About how much do they charge for agent and agreement fee for that 2 bedroom flat?

Say what you know you can’t call Bayelsa useless because it’s still developing .

On the other hand because it is still developing that is what makes it cheap .

Other states that re better is not only the government that developed it . Go and buy a land in Bayelsa Nd devolved other people will buy and develop that is how it is done

Oga rest, Bayelsa is one of the most expensive states to live in. Even more expensive than Rivers state. I don’t know what you’re dragging up and down. How can anyone who as lived in Bayelsa mention it when people are talking about cheap places to live. I’m from Bayelsa, I’ve lived there....not a single soul who has lived in Bayelsa agrees with you but you still dey drag matter.

You're just a pathetic fellow. You cannot compare any SE state to Ibadan and Abeokuta in terms of standard of living and peace.
Lol that shows you don't understand standard of living then.
Do u think living a hut and probably doing 50 thousand naira monthly salary government job makes standard living high or what.
How do u measure your own standard of living??

The majority of towns in Nigeria are very cheap to live in and the expensive ones are mainly Abuja and Lagos. The majority of the rest are more or less the same. Even in Abuja and Lagos not everywhere has high rent and rent is the main problem

No mind them, Osun is cheap simply because it's poor, no Economic activities, those expensive States are like that because it has more Economic activities.

You stay in States like Osun, you standard of living keeps decreasing. Na when you Osun with your 10 million and e no reach by you land for Delta, or lagos ghetto you go know say Osun na wash.
That's actually an advantage for osun. More value for your money cool

Let me humbly remind you that both Modakeke and Ife are in Osun State and both are

Battle Tested Fighters so when in Osun kindly employ good security to watch what comes out of your loose mouth

Osun doesn’t suffer blabber mouths and Chest beaters gladly

They will deposit you and your Luggage in the next Bus heading back to your Village. in

the East without uttering a single word of Complaint they will even pay

the Bus driver your fare back home and give you for free all the Akara you can eat on the Journey

Hian. The guy is a troll and obviously joking, why take him serious
