MrBrownJay1:


bro...let that babe come and explain to us how she will get a place after 30days (with her 1month salary) .....

Carbon2Oxide:

Seems you are advising her based on emotions

YOU SAID HER COLLEAGUES DONT KNOW HER?? Well youre wrong..... THEY KNOW HER NOW SINCE THEY ALL WORK IN THE SAME FIRM

THE FIRM has all her data.....

Aint that safer than she begging for accommodation on NAIRALAND .....

Even if you want to beg..... BEG THE RIGHT PEOPLE

MrBrownJay1:


bro...let that babe come and explain to us how she will get a place after 30days (with her 1month salary) .....

Carbon2Oxide:


See ehn, let me tell you the blunt truth. I live on the mainland but i work on the island

This one youre travelling all the way from Benin to work in Lekki,Lagos, and you have no accommodation. Im not trying to discourage you babe.... but


Do you think you can get an accommodation easily after you get your first pay? Think about your expenses for the month(Tfare,feeding, e.t.c). You might not even get an accommodation in your preferred location cos of cost or other factors.

I am not being negative here

victorian:






Firm having her data does not mean they know her. She's still a stranger to them and they will see her as one. I'm NOT trying to be pessimistic here but that's the truth.

I'm talking from experience anyways.

Shebi she will come to Lagos on Monday and ask them politely, she will hear with her ears


And moreover is the label : IM THE RIGHT PERSON, stamped on their foreheads?

Sighs human beings sef

Carbon2Oxide:

Lol...
Na tfare and feeding go swallow half of her monthly stipend./...
Miscellaneous spending still dey there... AIRTIME,DATA,HAIRDO,CLOTHINGS....

Antoniosmile:

Thanks for all the contributions so far. The idea is not for me to use all the salary to take an apartment but money from other sources could come and I can also look for a partner/roomie to join in paying for the accomodation. It's just that this whole thing is improtu

MrBrownJay1:


the babe might as well look for a r/ship with immediate accommodation and be done with fooling herself on NL... but hey, if she is one of them religious type, she can go to her local church/mosque and see if baba pastor no go ask for some "affection".

Carbon2Oxide:



Stop confusing the girl based on your emotions

EXAMPLE .... IF I AM HUNGRY NOW, ISNT IT BETTER I GO STRAIGHT TO A CANTEEN AND ASK FOR FOOD OR LEFTOVER SEF......

THAN BEGGING YOU FOR CASH..... THAT IS HEADING SOMEWHERE

Now you understand what i meant by BEGGING THE RIGHT PEOPLE


If she were your family, would you give the same advice to allow them pass the night in a strangers house..........A TOTAL STRANGER WITHOUT A TRACE

MrBrownJay1:


sista, you have to be realistic.... the majority who will help you, will have some ulterior motives, but then again, the majority who are thinking of helping would think YOU have ulterior motives.

victorian:








Well u are right too but if she's my family? I will tell her to locate a White garment church in Lagos. Join them. Explain to the Alagba about her predicament. When he prays and see vision, and he sees she's a good lady?

He will allow her sleep in church and she will become a full member for as long as she stays there.

At least I know white garment church do assist in such to anyone who joins them or some few Pentecostal churches.

But white garment Is sure banker, if she's desperate about it than total strangers.

So that will be my advice

Carbon2Oxide:


I swear.. Nothing is free in Lagos. One has to pay a price at a point even if it seem free at first

Make the girl first comot her mind say she wan use her first salary rent house..

If she is religious as you typed earlier, the can follow that path too..

But where will she pass the night on monday?

Antoniosmile:

True though. Thanks
I've been putting a lot of calls through to the people I know in Lagos. But disappointment here and there, I'm hoping for the best though if the job was really meant for me. I had to share it on this platform just for me not to put all my eggs in one basket.

MrBrownJay1:


remember, nothing is free in this world... especially in Lagos. sometimes being safe is better than some story that will (later) touch the heart

MrBrownJay1:


this is friday afternoon, she still has a full weekend to decide what type of madness she wants to get herself into.... sunday will even be a great time for confession during church proceeding (for better appeal to other xtians)

Carbon2Oxide:


Good idea too...
I know about the white garment assistance as well..

But will the O.P buy the idea?

Is the OP a responsible girl too??

Who knows

victorian:



Don't worry if she's responsible or not

When the Woli or Alagba starts praying, he will see vision if she's good or not.

And If she's a responsible lady, then they will accept her to be staying in church with other members who also live in church. She should just be ready to clean and help in the church activities that's all.

So, Op there lies a great solution in front of you

And if within a month, a single upwardly male church member falls in love with you , then glory be to God. I hope the feeling will be mutual. You will graduate from sleeping in church to moving in with a trusted church member, who will be willing to court and marry her.

By then Alagba can vouch for her and other church members.

That's how things happen sometimes

But if she doesn't fall in love with any man there or none falls In love with her? She can stay as long as she desires, until she has saved money to rent a place of her own.

Easy peasy!


Problem solved.

Antoniosmile:


Thanks sis.

I think I'll have to follow this advice at a point, if all seems not to be forthcoming or I'll just have to stay back in Benin

Carbon2Oxide:


lol..
