Hello nairalanders I’m planning to relocate to Lagos the city of endless hustle and opportunity.

They say there are greener pastures there, and I believe it. Lagos is a no man’s land; it doesn’t care where you’re from, only what you can offer and how hard you’re willing to work.

It’s a city where dreams are tested, skills are sharpened, and bold moves are rewarded. I’m ready to step out of my comfort zone, embrace the grind, and chase bigger opportunities.
New city. New challenges. New level.

Stay in your low IGR region and develop it. You people are dragging Lagos, Abuja and South South region with the indigenes there. Develop your region.

They r already insulting u n saying u want to come n sell gala, I will advice u find another state to relocate to.

georgeakins:
E dey pepper you as nobody is relocating to your ugwu land.

M not surprised small minds dont reason fa.U hav already conferred me igbotic title

Lagos belongs to the Eguns.

Just ignore relocating to Lagos. Try emerging towns like Asaba, Lokoja, Enugu, Owerri and Aba.

They are lovely towns with low rent, less traffic, more places for leisure and less carbon emissions.

If you prefer Onitsha, it's perfect for business, hangouts and connections.

Rent in Onitsha is cheap. Food cheap. Traffic is mid, but you'll get to your destination faster.

Today mark 7 months in Lagos,but should I say it's worth it,I am not even sure,I move in with my family august 2 luckily after two days in the hotel I got an apartment with 2m naira per annum for just a mini flat on the island. Up on till now I couldn't find a job that can pay my monthly rent allowance,and I can't go below that standard of apartment so I just key to small online jobs.
For warri where I come this kind apartment I can't pay more than 300k, this Lagos stinks like hell, everywhere smells,aboki spiting up and down, no gaging like deltans do, you go see people for street looking so dirtylike mad.. you go hardly differentiate some from sane.
Sometimes I go see the way people they hustle for street,their store is their apartment no good living,na so life come bad reach,the Igbos and other tribes and the funny thing nothing in that shop to make a good living. Stop crying to come to Lagos, he no worth am when you are starting from zero. But if you get like 3million then give it a try but...
As I dey here I still dey find the thing when they sup for this place I never see am,my other family member is working in a popular mart here in Lagos and I have the opportunity but I no gree,so when I weigh my life in Delta and my life now in Lagos I come know say I was doing excellent before and if I grade am here now I don't even know where to start because the people when they street for this Lagos overshadow people when dey do well so you no go see eye count, if I am making Sense I just need one person to say it and reply to my post so I can say it all for those that one to learn,there are good side I have not mentioned, thanks.

Don't

Relocate to Abia still. The governor is working. In fact, he’s the best in Nigeria. Public infrastructure are excellent. Social amenities are the best in
Nigeria. Electricity is 24 hours. Business and job opportunities are on the same level with London and Dubai.

So, leave Lagos alone please and go to Abia. The governor of Lagos is APC and I’m sure you know that everything about APC is evil. Go to Abia my brother and leave Lagos alone. Thanks for your understanding.

Lol, @op U don enter am especially that statement you made"Lagos is no man's land" don spoil the minds of many Wei for genuinely help you with some good tips. Good luck to you any ways.

What are the good side
I want to know, bcus l'm also planning to relocate to the state.

For those that want to learn ,the good side food cheap die,like even as na island I dey he suppose look expensive for my eyes but no o, I feel like they make it affordable so the poor masses can buy because na Dem plenty pass here you must sell, cheapest bread in warri na 400naira,you can get bread here 200,300,400 and the sizes are reasonable even normal big bread of 2500 for Delta, bokkumart dey sell am 1100 very standard,if you dey Lagos you know.Mamaput or restaurant can sell rice 100,beans 100,dodo100,meat 100naira when grown up men go dey buy food like that I go dey hide my face dey shame,na culture shock for me. People here know how to give, you no fit hungry if you know your way. Food is very cheap either cooked or raw but rent is high but cheap in some areas.

Ease of going to the embassies Incase you one japa them full the island,also ease of movement, see you see border and airport any way you want take japa. Clothes cheap beyond your comprehension.

Nobody send your papa for here,it took me more than 6months to familiarize with the faces of my neighbor inside the same compound I still dey pass some for road without knowing them, because of work you don't see Dem at all,we pay Nepal bills through WhatsApp group 5k once card finish luckily we didn't pay last month and any issues is resolve them,less aproko, family pressure go reduce because you far from home and you have only your self to compete with na ahead you go dey reason, this are few of the good side and if you want to learn more good side or have any question you can let me know. But hold money na the reason I fit blend quickly without pressure like say na stroll I take, Lagos get stress na only money dey cool am
