Where in osun please

Ifon Orolu is very cheap to stay and enjoy cheap foods with affordable accommodation. Just ensure you don't stay close to Ilobu or Erin Osun due to the communal clash of recent. Though settled now. You have greater opportunity to invest and diversify in other areas of your choice and easily be able to build your own house. Thank me later because I make cool money from this town. I talk with experience despite my stay abroad for 4 years.

You didn't mention security as one of the key factors. Gboko Benue State?

I concur! 2007 NYSC camp in Gboko, I bought 5 very sweet oranges for #5. I almost fainted when someone told us we were extorted because it was the orientation camp. At Tarka, my friend told me you could get a basket of tomatoes for #120. I swear, true true, Benue na food basket.

Hi, I need some help figuring out something I’ve been contemplating.

Due to some financial difficulties, I have to relocate and I’m looking for a place in Nigeria that’s very affordable in terms of rent and general cost of living. One of my top priorities is reliable electricity and good network connectivity, as these are essential for my work and daily life.

My budget is quite limited—less than ₦100,000—so affordability is crucial.

So far, the options I’m considering include:

Osogbo, Osun State

Uyo, Akwa Ibom

Gboko, Benue State

Abakaliki, Ebonyi State

If you have any suggestions, insights, or recommendations about these places—or anywhere else that might fit my criteria—I’d really appreciate your input.

Thanks so much for your help!

if you dont know, how do you want any other person to know?

Everywhere is expensive in Nigeria... inflation and high costs of living is everywhere due to the economic policies and reforms of this APC government
