It's not only about where rent is cheap, what about internet access?

He is a remote worker so he needs reliable and fast internet access
He needs a network with better/superfast network coverage in whatever area he chooses to go to

Rent are costly in Osun too o, especially Oshogbo and Ile-ife. More costly than majority of places in Ibadan. The way things are going now, people might start moving to the core villages, especially those that don't have good jobs in the cities.

Ogun state is the best place for you, just do your findings. Ondo is not too expensive as Ibadan and Osun.

Teach me work
Re: With ₦300,000 Monthly Income, Where Can I Live In Western Nigeria? by Saladdin:
The two western states that I'll recommend for you are Ekiti and to a lesser extent Osun. If you eschew the current geopolitical setup, Kwara would have been your best bet. It's western in everything but name.

The three has nice weather, low cost of living, fairly easy traffic, affordable food and housing, easy to navigate to the North and deeper South.

Shut your ears to anybody that says you are living in "a village". Let them supplement your income if they want you to live in Lagos.

Ibadan, Oyo State
i totally agree with you. The course of living in Ibadan is very very sheep, they have fine girls that are not expenses to date and married women are also available for hookups.

Yahoo boys are one of the reasons for such exorbitant rent. When I did a short academic exercise there a decade ago, rent, food and transport were dirt cheap. Now some good-for-nothing agents now throw prices around for a town with barely any reasonable commercial activity.

I mean you can drive around the entire Osogbo through and through in under two hours. That's how small it is. OP is better off staying in Ilorin, Kwara State. It's still affordable, decent and less cutthroat than Ibadan.

Ibadan has the cheapest cost of living in the southwest. Rent is not the only cost, you should consider food cost, transportation and business opportunities too. Ibadan ticks the box more than others.
Food prices in Ibadan is similar to Lagos. In some areas like Iwo road , its even more expensive
