As long as you live with them and not entitled.
After 20, make sure you have a plan of moving out and see living with them a temporary thing. You also contribute e.g buy monthly household stuff and be self reliant (buy your own food). Living with them after 25 years and continue to be spoon fed is a shame on the person and personal self abuse. You have to go into the starry night (world) and be independent.

bro nothing is bad if your still leaving with them even at 27/28 no be by how far na by how well, all the best bro .

For me age is not a matter especially in Nigeria. As long as you are above 18 and can hustle and you have a plan. You're good to go.

The Nigerian environment is not favourable to just leave your parents home without proper planning and a secured job.What if you leave and go and rent a house and one thing led to another you lost your job and cannot pay house rent and utility bills and the landlord give you a quit notice,where will you go to?You will go back to your parents house and start from a scratch.I know guys who left their parents houses and when they lost their jobs they couldn't go back home.They left their rented apartment when their rent expired and started squatting with friends.Their friends are also not comfortable with their continued living with them they have to go back home.

Anytime you think you are ready to...

If you are working close to your father's house, stay there until you're ready to marry before moving out. It will help you in many ways.

Note: Preferably if your father/mother is the owner of the house.

Either from rich home or not, either middle class or upper class - as soon as a boy is leaving secondary school or at 16, he's eligible and supposed to be capable of leaving his parent's house. I don't know about girls, they can still grow older.

Left at 25 and witnessed the world at a whole new level. Nothing beats experiencing the world your own way, developing the way you want and creating your own worldview.

Better than making a place you lived as baby a permanent place in your 20s.
We will figure it out when that eventually happen to us - but in the meantime, move out of your parents home after university and go face life....it is called "grow up"
Let them rest from seeing you daily.
