Once you start earning and can take care of responsibilities even if its at 16. But on the average at 25 you can bounce

Is this a TOPIC to be discussed in Nigeria...or a Joke..?..
NIGERIA that is yet to conquer Hunger and Poverty..?

Nigeria a country where PEOPLE graduate from Universities and become prostitutes..

We should be discussing how people how can FED WELL at least 3 times daily..

What works for A might not work for B, always find the balance

Read about Simon Cowell's life, read about The Founder of Kentucky's life

For me I left home very early for college 16/17, travelled out after service and never looked back since except visitation.. but my street brother stayed and married in his father's house, built a sport betting company from home, built his first house from home, leveraged on his father's Goodwill and became a caretaker LGA chairman, and became a multimillionaire ,


If I never had to pay huge rent because of Vagina aka Privacy, maintained a car because of pvssy, I could have done a lot at home, and if I had stayed and put up with my parents "wahala" I would had been better motivated

Serving a Landlord by paying your rents to him is a sure way not to get your own house, always leverage on family support

Once you are done worth your degree program or the trade/business your are learning.

In Nigeria there's no Age because we don't have standards and norms, in Nigeria you see a child of 7 years living alone and Hawking on the street, you see a girl of 10 years already married

Funny question, depends on family and economic status.

The richer one's family is, the less the pressure to leave the house before you are ready to (marriage or job).

When to leave the house without a concrete reason to do so is usually a discussion for the lower class.
Exactly.
It depends on family and social status.

Once you've graduated from the higher institution you should be on your own.

Of course, if you never attended one you should do so as soon as you've learnt a trade.

All this should be achievable by 24.

How many times will this question make Frontpage this year?
The answer to the question is gender specific.
For guys, immediately after school (University / Polytechnic)
For ladies - They should stay in their parents house till their husband come to marry then. Any lady staying alone is an Olosho in disguise.

Don't let anyone rush you ooo.

In a country where 70% are poor, it's understandable if you stay with your parents till 30.

I see people staying in squalor all in the name of staying alone.

I've lost my parents since I was 18 and I can tell you it's not easy out there.

The right time to leave your parents house should be when you have a stable pay that can comfortable pay your bill.

For me age is not a matter especially in Nigeria. As long as you are above 18 and can hustle and you have a plan. You're good to go.

The moment I landed a job after graduation, I know it was time to leave. In Kenny Rodger's line " you got to know when to.....
