You guys should stay in your states and vote good leaders. You guys will vote animals as leaders in your states and start running to Lagos.

Hello, a fresh graduate just relocated to Lagos in search for job and doesn't have a place of his own for now but squatting with some friends. It seems he's not that comfortable.

He saved some money from his previous job in Enugu before relocating to Lagos in search of a better job.

Presently, he's thinking of enrolling in a cyber security training and ethical hacking tracking with his savings.

Should he get an apartment first before he gets a job or he waits until he gets a job before he rents an apartment? For now, he's squatting with some people and not really comfortable.

What do you suggest please?
Look for apartments you can pay monthly rentals. Like 10-20k per month

Why not relocate to Abia or Imohuh

Tomorrow now you will join your kinsmen to blame Sanwo-Olu for all your problems while sparing your SE governors.
Why you go Lagos why you no remain for osun grin

When you're squatting with people, just zero your mind about comfort. Be it friends or family relatives, no matter how well you relate with them, it is like that. Feel at home no mean say you fit jump yakata dey do anyhow, nobody send you even if you be Methuselah immediate younger brother, na who get house and who fess come house, dem know.

My brother, to rent house for Lagos no easy o. Shey na your savings you wan use run am? How many places you don know? Which areas you don go? To avoid premium tears, abort mission abeg. Agents go too whine you, dem go bill you, dem go still run you streetz. I saw the other thread & the idea of renting a 4bedroom apartment for the purpose of subletting it, no try am oo. Na Landlord trouble you wan start to dey find, dem go draaggg you like thief.

Cleo, I implore you to stay where you are for now. Cyber Security is a good one, is it an online or a physical training? How long will it take for you to get certified? Is it after certification that you intend to apply for jobs or you are actively sending job applications now? I think you should start from there. In the meantime, try to get familiar with your environment, don't keep late nights and please stay out of trouble. Try to endure, be cautious, plan your next move and work towards it. Good luck!
Op, don't joke with this please!

God bless you comrade for this priceless advice.

Get a job first!!…your job now determines the location u can get a house, if u get a house on the island now and end up getting a job on the mainland, how will you port the everyday traffic? That’s going to be suffer pro max!..

You think this is a place for all kind of post. You want to tell us that you just join this Lala abi. Care bros move one with your life after NYSC. Who cares if you go to lagoon to start a leaving.

Get an accommodation.

When he gets the job, where will he stay? Since you said he's not that comfortable where he stays presently, getting a place to stay should be of utmost priority. As long as it's not borrowed funds where he will have to be on his feet to pay back, no problem.

Hope he gets the job as well.
What if he gets an apartment first, as you've suggested, then he happens to get a job later on
And it turns out that his place of residence is quite far off from the location of his new job

What then?

He should use the money to get training and staying with his friends is just temporary so he should endure.

you are right but if he can still keep managing with where his staying it will be better. If he secure a job far from where his has accommodation it will become another trouble.

Let him get an accommodation at the center of Lagos. Surulere/Fadeyi most preferably. By getting a place in the aforementioned, it doesn't matter where his job is, he will pull through. Even if the job is on the Island. You guys don't know what it means to be homeless or stay somewhere uncomfortable. It's why I said that as long as it's not borrowed funds or his last funds, he will pull through.

That being said, he will get a job.

If I were to be in his shoes, I'll take my advice. I'll get an accommodation. Is it when you now get a job, you'll start scampering around to get a place to stay? Do you even know how hard house search is in Lagos? In order of priority, shelter first.
