Did you relocate "because you're Igbo and your wife is Yoruba"?

I feel this line has no function in the story.

Back to your relocation, yes Asaba is becoming expensive. I suspect it's due to activities of oil barons and yahoo boys and girls, plus relocation from Anambra due to Monday lockdowns.

Blame it on yahoo boys. same goes with Benin..... Those little boys will want to show off at any given chance. They feel when something is on the high price, it means it's classy and only for the big boys grin grin grin grin
Re: Life In Asaba Keeps Getting Expensive by OkpaNsukkaisBae(m): 8:55pm On May 29, 2025
The price no bad.
I guess it covers your breakfast and dinner. You have access to their gym centre & swimming pool.

I guess in 2020 the price won't be less than 15k. But inflation don change everything for Naija.
Re: Life In Asaba Keeps Getting Expensive by crossbreedwears(m): 9:04pm On May 29, 2025

Bros, children's school fee, feeding, transportation and cost of living for Lekki na die o.

The day my brother told me what he pays for his children's fee on the mainland, I nearly fainted. Same standard o. angry angry

If you no dey carry calculator waka for Lekki, you go collect. Unless of course you're GEE. cheesy cheesy
Re: Life In Asaba Keeps Getting Expensive by Agugbadin: 9:20pm On May 29, 2025
Firstly migration of Igbos from Anambra and the making Asaba the headquarter of Nollywood are the reasons for the sudden çhange in cost of living in Asaba
Re: Life In Asaba Keeps Getting Expensive by nedekid:
Yeah Asaba seems to be a cool calm place, enjoyable when there is money in the pocket. Transportation is expensive especially as they buy fuel at more cost than Lagos. Average bolt ride cost me 10k ie from airport to hotel. I visited a couple of times last year.
As per hotel yes they seem quite pricey for what you can easily get in Lagos for less especially for the average - 1 to 1 star hotel. I think you get a better bargain for higher end hotels. Eg my hotel of choice is best western elomaz on dbs road, a bargain considering staying in a hotel of that standard in Lagos. I use to pay 55k last year for one of the entry level rooms, omo the pool side is where all the correct chicks from all over the SE and beyond hangout (if you know what I mean). If no room at elomaz then spring hill hotel (50k) opposite elomaz is the next place of choice.
The good thing about those two hotels is their complimentary breakfast buffet, that saves you cost of feeding in the mornings.
For regular meals I go out to get authentic local chops at mamas kitchen on dls road, a drop by chartered tricycle is 1k unlike when I was a novice and getting bolt ride for 5k lol.
Meals at mamas kitchen cost me like 4k with water, not bad compared to hotel food.
All in all, Asaba is not too bad expenses wise, to stay in a hotel like best western in Lagos, you likely will cough out well over 150k.
