Thanks for this info. I only hope tech guys handling remote roles are reading this. Get a foreign remote gig, look for a sane environment to live and work and mind your business there.
Not working here in Nigeria that a corporal who joined Police with fake WAEC will be harassing people more educated than everyone in his family for carrying Macbooks.
Nigeria is not conducive for tech bros. Electricity, harassment and all.

Nigeria is not it at all.

That monthly payment of house rent alone makes the place atractive. That what some Nigeria wicked landlords here on nairaland were kicking against. As for Ghana the least they can take is 2year. Shame on Nigerians and Ghanaians landlord. Before you come at me I also own a house in Benin city ooo
Unless most poor nigerians are earning atleast 50k every month then it won't be possible for them to take out money meant for feeding and others to pay for rent, so many nigerians would crash

I just got to The Gambia, 4hrs flight from Lagos via air peace ticket cost 223000 one way..so if you are planning for an adventure like me .. it's not a bad destination.

Dalasi to naira is about 11 naira or 10 sometimes.
The light is super stable.
The people are nice.


Please ,make more research and come back here to give us more information . What we've here is not sufficient to decide and plan on.GOD bless you, amen.

Once they know u are a Nigerian my guy u go pay money tire if u don't shine your eyes.. and they treat u like a celebrity.

Honestly the environment is conducive very very.. food seems cheap, houses aren't so cheap but you can pay monthly or pay 6 months. 1 year upfront rent payment doesn't happen here unless you the tenant wants to pay upfront.

Ask me anything you wana ask I will give you first hand information.

If it's business Gambia is good not better than Nigeria due to population.

Gambia has about 2 m people, Nigeria well u already know.

You can't be rich rich here..
But you can be extremely comfortable.
Their girls are really cute, extremely dark skin like some senegalese and somalis incase you like women.

And there are alot of retired white people living here ..

They take covid 19 rules very seriously.

If you need a good Nigerian Food, tell a cab to take you to Serrekunda around Electrical, There's an Igbo guy called "Emeka" He has some restaurants around there. His food will definitely make you feel at home.

That's technical question they would not answer you.
That's Gambia as a country is less than Ebonyi state in terms of population

Which part of the Gambia are you staying?

I have been to the Gambia when Yaya Jammeh was then the head of state,

I live in Darlington area of serekunda, and work at Banjul. we hardly get light. Many uses solar.
Unless you are talking about brufut city which I didn't visit Shaa.


Yea their currency get value than Naira, it's hard to get it too.

They people are very friendly but every Nigerians to them is rich that they will benefit from, otherwise you are a fraud.

Whereas many Nigerians I met there are people that fails in their attempts to travel out to Europe mainly through Morroco. Many are stranded.

YOU LIED. ELECTRICITY IS NOT STABLE IN THE GAMBIA

My friend don't be naive. Even Tanzania has steady power supply. All most all the African
nation's has steady power supply. Electricity is not a big deal, just that Nigeria is a shit hole nation.

Did Nigeria wake up and became 200million plus? When we had oil boom we wia not up to 100million, yet what our government did was to throw a lavish party for the whole world in the guise of FESTAC 77
