Mrlegent11: Is 100k Salary Still Enough to Survive in Nigeria? Be Honest
Let’s be real with ourselves—can ₦100k still take you through a full month in Nigeria today?
After rent, transport, food, data, and other small expenses, what is really left? In cities like Lagos or Abuja, ₦100k can disappear in just a few weeks if you’re not careful.
Some people will say it’s possible if you live a very strict lifestyle—manage your feeding, avoid unnecessary spending, and maybe stay with family to reduce rent. But for someone paying rent, handling bills alone, and still trying to save something, it’s honestly very difficult.
Prices of food, transport, and basic needs keep increasing, but salaries are not moving at the same pace. That’s why many people now depend on side hustles just to survive.
So let’s talk:
If you earn ₦100k monthly, how are you managing it? Are you able to save anything at all? Or do you think ₦100k is no longer realistic in today’s Nigeria?
Be honest—your experience might help someone here.
100k is nonsense in today's nigeria For you to earn 100k 1) u are most likely paying 20 to 50k for tfare monthly 2) u are most likely buying data of 10k monthly 3) u must likely pay black tax of 10k to 20k monthly being Conservative 4) u mostly like visit a pharmacy to get drug for either yourself or ur relative of 5k to 15k monthly if it's hospital admission with test inclusive it's probably more 5) you most like likely save 10k to 40k monthly for your rent can be more 6) food...is still there oo. 7) clothing na God hand u dey Nepa biol..waste bill etc..
I prefer to be called a physician or surgeon than to be called a doctor..that name has been bastadised...my lab tech is known as a doctor on the streets just becos he works in a hospital..if u check his bag it's filled with needles..antibiotics..antimalarial..Methylated spirit...cotton wool..Sterile guaze and suturing kit......
ozo13: a lot of issues.who sees a standard hospital with may be Many specialist ( gynaecologist/theatre nurses/ anaesthetist) and now decide to be operated on in a hospital where anyone will just operate and assisted by a quack(may be one CHEW or a porter giving ketamine and the likes- because most people like using quacks for cheap labor just to maximize profit against standard protocols.one can not be sure if the person is even a doctor (anything goes in Nigeria)
You are right many male chew...technician's, Health tech working in hospitals are fronted as hospitals as doctors..when ever you ar sick they bombard you with all classes of antibiotics without considering your renal status etc..they mostly do house visits and work at night..anybody treating you..please verify their mdcn status..don't be treated by a hustler.

did worse that things and became the most vocal in the new testament with his various epistles. Christ might end up visiting him and he will enter heaven before many of the ĢO'S
If u are a broke man avoid getting ladies pregnant or marrying them If you are a man wey guide you can get a lady pregnant but make sure say u try dey within range no let the source dry too much If u are an upcoming man doing well for ur self avoid keeping many women..that's distraction If u are a man who has what it takes to marry and cater for a woman avoid jobless...skillless and ambitionless women..women who do 10 ajo with no job. If u are an upcoming man doing well for himself who married a professional lady who earn well but proud dump her and take ur kids if u have any.
Christianity in nigeria is so confused...don't know if its like that in other climes. You hear ppl say the God of this or that.not Jesus christ..not the father of Jesus.. but the God of a man on earth.
BlackViper: Is he being disrespectful or is this an uncomfortable truth?
This is the first time an African president would talk about Nigeria in a less than admirable tone. But would you blame the president of Ghana for speaking so frankly? Bola Tinubu opened the floodgates with that less than careless remark on Kenya. True leaders don’t do that! pic.twitter.com/XGk3rVYDoX
ebubeson: The rate of complain in marriage is much. If you have a beautiful and successful marriage, kindly tell us how to make marriage a beautiful thing.
There is no secret formula. Each woman and man is different some men marry 5 wives and they all live in the same house no issues Some men marry one wife and can't even bring his family member to spend one week in his matrimonial home. Some men marry one wife with uncountable concubines just to make sure things his wife lack he doesn't take it upon her he simply helps her fill her void.
Opinions differ after skit maker Cute Abiola shared video of his wife’s delivery surgery
Nigerian skitmaker Cute Abiola is facing backlash online after sharing a video documenting his wife’s childbirth surgery.
While the video showed moments around the delivery, much of the conversation online has focused less on the birth itself and more on the decision to film and share such a private experience.
Several users criticised the move, describing it as unnecessary and attention-driven. Some argued that not everything should be turned into content, especially sensitive medical moments involving a partner.
Others went further to question the role of the hospital, saying medical environments should maintain stricter boundaries and not allow recordings of that nature.
A few also suggested that the skitmaker may have approached the situation from a content-first perspective, accusing him of prioritising engagement over privacy.

DeOTR: Any domain name you buy is yours. Nothing will come out of the lawsuit.
. Can't remember the company that sued and won a case where a man wanted to sell the domain name to a well known company in Europe.. the company won him in court even though he held the domain name for many years.
