I'm planning to relocate to Abuja next month, that is January 2025, after completing my undergraduate study in one of the neighboring states. I'm confused about the best, most affordable place to stay.

My major needs are security, electricity, nearness to town, and affordable housing. I have been looking at Kubwa and Lugbe, but I would appreciate some input from Abuja residents here.

Note: I am on a budget. So, places like Asokoro, Utako, etc are out of it. Secondly, I'm a freelancer; hence my need for an area with a steady electricity supply.

So, where in Abuja would you suggest and why?

If you are considering lugbe make sure it's an estate, if not don't bother renting an apartment not in an estate, demolition is eminent, same goes with kubwa, in fact, there are satellite villages inside the metropolis, avoid them with all your strength.

Now hear this, if you want to stay close to town and considering your budget, karu site and jikowyi phase one is your sure plug, karu site is very close to town and there light is constant too, the vibe karu site give is same like inside the metropolis ,

Again, don't you ever rent a house that is not situate inside an estate in Abuja especially lugbe and kubwa

quote me to give you a tour as soon as u arrive here, Welcome to my city,

Kinzo0917:
Which traffic dey kubwa road?

The only time traffic dey kubwa road na on Mondays

As for the other reasons you highlighted, I00% agree with you

Kinzo0917:
I live in kubwa

There is no place u can get self con for 150

I used to pay 150k 2 years ago. This year February, my landlord increased it to 170k. And by October this same year,to 300k. We are still negotiating Sha

Kubwa landlords are inhuman. Just because dey heard Tinubu increased minimum wage of which dey have not started paying yet. Is not as if everyone is a civil/public servant ooo
