Kindly go to Benin since it's up for consideration.
With that pay u are a rich man in Benin city. With 50k out of that cash, your utility bills are likely covered and you can save as much as 40% at the end of the day.

Meanwhile in Lagos, transportation can gulp 50k off the pay monthly, Accomodation can gulp a big chunk even when the house is not a match compared to what you will get in Benin with equivalent sum or less.
Finally, you already know how frustrating Lagos[b] traffic can be.
If you stay in Lag for 50 years, you would have spent 15 years in traffic. Lol

chatinent:

mokset123:
Stick with lagos, pension plus your salary is good, hopefully you would move from there to a better opportunity, try network as lagos have more opportunities

You have a point but considering house rent and transportation, one will wonder how much of the 250k you can save, I had to discover from Nepa recently has my bill was up to 15k monthly for just a 2room apartment, lawma bill is there, landlord and tenant contribution, utility bill is just crazy.

Good day my fellow Nairalanders,

So I recently got a job as in IT officer in Lagos and in Benin, the one I got in Lagos(Restaurant /Fashion Store) is 250k plus pensions and HMO while the one in Benin(Hydro Farm) is 200k, no pension but there is free weekly farm produce available for staffs.

I currently reside in Lagos and my house rent is on the High side but I am from Benin and getting accommodation in Benin won't be hard.

With the high inflation rate, will you advise I move to Benin considering I won't be spending on food, transportation and housing is cheap.

Please I need your comments.

Cutehector:
Benin please. Me sef want to leave this lagos at all cost.

mokset123:
your power bill is on the high side, if there isn't a prepaid for your flat, then you may consider looking for an apartment with one. Have you considered the cost of moving down to benin to take up the new offer

Kul3ger:
Carry yourself de go Benin.

Omo, for the most part, lagos na busy-doing-nothing lifestyle. Many i’m-in-Lagos people, after HOUSE RENT and TRAFFIC don gulp their share of their salary, sapa takes over — so continues the monthly cycle.

Except you run a profitable business(Lagos get the market for virtually anything), make no employee come sing Lagos this, eko that for my ears. Opportunities are many, opportunities are plenty, but sapa is plentier: na under-100k jobs many pass.

Baba, obey the calls of the ancient city.

Owiepa, Godspeed!
