My guys Lagos is what it is, firstly it depends on what you have in mind and secondly it will take the grace of God, Lagos is not easy...when I came to Lagos last year march I saw Lagos as the last state I will ever go to settle down, if I ever want to travel again it will be out of the country so when I came to Lagos it wasn't easy been someone that does not have any closer family member except a cousin who really even cares about someone. So when I arrived I stayed three weeks without a job and in that three weeks how I eat is that I wash clothes for my cousin and he dashes me 500 naira, Omo hunger knack me like trailer, there was a time I had to go two days without food I nearly catch ulcer. So I befriended a guy that works in a guest house who linked me to a place where his gf works (factory work) and the pay was 1000/day and they pay every two weeks but they don't work on weekends, I managed the place for a month then got another job where all we do is loading and it's a steady night job but the pay was better (12k a week) but na die cos u will be feeling like train jam you after every nights work, men it wasn't easy at all. So I did that one for good one year but glory be to God last month I got a call from a job I applied for since last year June that I should come for interview and lo and behold it was successful and I have resumed with a pay of 108k, it can only get better if you believe. So far so good Lagos has been kind. 13 Likes |

BusinessPlan22:Comparing Lagos with the whole Northern Nigeria shows that you're not bright at all and you're far from being intelligent. Also, how many young Nigerian youths are able to secure good paying non-government jobs upon graduation? You'd just open your mouth WA without thinking. 1 Like |

Been in Lagos since 2004 when I came to have an education and frankly I am getting very exhausted. Contemplating relocating to the FCT once I put an end to my 9-5 life. I plan to build in either Guzape or Katampe extension and thereafter settle down there for the foreseeable future. 1 Like |

Lasgidi gave me the exposure, the job, training, contacts and the all round development. It's stressful but my current job as an independent consultant now makes it easier and fun. I don't work for anyone and wakes up at my own time. Moreover, my major clients are in Port Harcourt, Calabar and Abuja, where I travel to work once in a while. I will be in Lagos till I leave Nigeria later or get political appointment that would take me to my state, Abuja or any of the Nigerian missions abroad. 1 Like |

I left like 5 years ago, because of traffic...Too much traffic, and I didn't like the fast pace of the city. I moved to Ibadan to write...I can do what I do anywhere, and Ibadan was just a perfect city to move to...not too far from Lagos, so I can always pop in to see family every now and then. Ibadan is a lovely city...very accommodating people, very little to no traffic (at least when compared to Lagos), quiet, safe. I still love Lagos though, cos I like to do faji sometimes, and nowhere like Lagos when it comes to having fun. Ibadan is not bad too sha when it comes to nightlife, but it is not Lagos. |

Lagos always seems like the best place until you step outside of her and realized that you were being fucxked all along. I implore those living in Lekki, VI and Ikoyi to step outside Lagos for 6 months and I guarantee you that you will not be able to live permanently in Lagos again. Even with all the money, you can't buy quietness, serene roads with less cars and fresh air available elsewhere. After aquiring wealth you won't be able to control the noise and chaos that comes from the entire estates neighborhood. The challenge with Lagosians like us is that we always think people outside Lagos are not doing well when in essence outsiders are mostly doing better with peace of mind. 4 Likes |
