Advice on Relocating Out of Lagos! by DonPADRO(op): 4:36am On Dec 31, 2022
Hi

I want to leave Lagos in the new year. I'm tired of the stress, high cost of everything and chaos.
The problem is I can't really make up my mind on where to go, what city is best for me and my business, my life and needs, therefore i opened this thread to seek advice from people who live or have been to these areas i have in mind to relocate to.


My opinions are...

1. Enugu
2. Uyo *(Akwa Ibom)
3. Calabar (Cross Rivers)
4. Port Harcourt

I'm an Igbo guy from Imo state. I work online so can move anywhere as long as i see good light and fast internet.
And something else... I'm kind of a late bloomer in life. Things no enter for me early so I'm still single at 40. But I earn well now, thanks to God, and so I'm seriously searching for a nice lady to settle down with. A city with lots of marriageable single girls around (even semi-educated one who are generally more humble) is high on my priority list.

The city I have in mind as the best fit is Enugu but due to insecurity in the SE I'm open to other opinions.

Please advice me based on your experence.

Education can be bought good character can't. Most pro hookup girls in Lagos Abuja ph even owrri are undergrad students and unemployed graduates

They are the ones that make price of hookup pass 20k a night.

Asaba would have been better but they don't have steady power supply. If you can provide yourself with solar then you are good to go.

This is a good one. I live in the heart of Uyo three years. Where I reside has steady light since we are on a prepaid network. I use broadband internet as there are companies that render wifi to home services here.
I will say life here is more affordable than Lagos and since you say you work online, you would not have to mind that good office jobs are scarce here.
I am planning on relocating from here abroad though. My major draw back is selling off all my many properties. If you choose Uyo and do not have properties, I wouldn't mind doing a rent and property transfer.
By the way, I am inspired by your post. I am in my early thirties and I sometimes get depressed about where I am at right now. Somehow, knowing that someone older than me is optimistic about life in general gives hope.

There are jobless people older than me who are still single. My young3r sis is married. Fixing life for a better tomorrow is what matters

If I may ask why are you still single in the midst of plenty? I have it on good authority that girls there are quite good looking and plentiful and don't mind marrying older men. So why are you single ?
I really need to know before I land myself in the same environment

It good you want to settle down, but don't be in a hurry to marry, even though you are already 40. Calm down and take your time. There are many good and wonderful girls around. But you see "virgins and semi educated girls", I no support that one.

Marry quality and character, virgin or not; educated or semi educated.

The way they portray lagos, it may not be good to some people's mental health

Igbos are running away from Igboland, fact.
Go to beer parlors in Lagos, them full there. Village, them no fit go.

The better igbos rise up together and crush these useless animals destroying Igboland, the better.

uyo is perfect for you. I lived there.
Re: Advice on Relocating Out of Lagos! by YourNextLevel(m): 11:34am On Dec 31, 2022
Because your business is not a barrier

Move to Uyo but for a better life move further to Eket ( not far from Uyo) and have your lifespan expanded.

Thank me in 20yrs time but marry oooo

Happy new year in advance

Very soon Lagos will become empty as it is right now.

Take a look around Lagos and see how businesses is at standstill, just because a particular tribe travelled for Christmas celebration.
