TechToyin: Hello everyone,
I’ll be turning 25 in July, and as I approach this milestone, I’ve been thinking seriously about my next big step in life.
I currently live in Kaduna with my parents and have a stable, comfortable life. I work as a teacher and also earn additional income from research writing and occasional website development gigs. I hold a Second Class Upper (2:1) degree in Biochemistry and consider myself fairly tech-savvy.
Lately, I’ve been feeling that it’s time to challenge myself and pursue bigger opportunities. Lagos keeps coming to mind because of the career prospects, networking opportunities, and the fast-paced environment that seems ideal for personal and professional growth.
My biggest challenge is accommodation. I don't currently have a place to stay in Lagos, and that uncertainty is making the decision difficult.
For those who have made a similar move, especially from northern Nigeria to Lagos, would you advise taking the leap? How did you handle accommodation and the initial transition? Do you think moving to Lagos could be a worthwhile investment in my future?
I’m considering making this move as a birthday gift to myself and would really appreciate your advice, experiences, and suggestions.
Thank you. hey i am glad you have a job that brings in an income no matter how little, also you have a side hustle atimes what you imagine is not what there is, if you are ready for chaos, craziness and atimes daylight cheating and robbery by service providers, landlords, vendors, and a system whereby you work a nine to five and pour the money back into the nine to five come to lagos but if you are business minded and you have dutch courage you can survive any challenge you are welcome,my advise come for a short visit and see a preview of coming attractions, then make your decision. |
