Previous thread:::::::


After much ups and downs I was able to save up and left Adamawa for Lagos. The journey was smooth except for few encounter on the road (story for anoda day).
I alredi got link up with someone I met on NL here. He assisted me with finding a job. I arrived Lagos on Saturday nights 16/10/2021. I spent the night in the park cos it was late. In the morning I left the park to apapa ajegunle boundary round about to be precise. A friend assisted me to stay there. On Monday morning I spoke with the H'R of a security company and I told her I want to work with them. She invited me to ekeko. After we met and did all the paper work I started working with them as a security guard. The problem I had was the salary was not much (25k) and working hours is hectic ( 7am- 10pm everyday even on Sunday). I had no choice than to leave becos it was the company that gave us accommodation. Working with such hours will leave no room for me to elevate. Now I want to go back again because I'm frustrated over here and depression is really eating me up.


I need some to help with a job with accommodation with better working time no matter how little the salary is.

Save up a little, leave the place and use your spare time to look for jobs

You entered lagos with the wrong mentality.
For starters, you don't go to lagos to enjoy. I remember when i enter lagos in 2020. I'd only 7k extra money apart from my transport money. I knew no body in lagos or the entire south west. I survived.

You can share tips on how you survived and what really sustain you. You said you entered Lagos with knowing anybody. . . tell me how you cope?
