ok thanks how is dat place. Like what does it look like? I left IB 23 years ago after staying for 6 years
Akala express, challenge, challenge express, Oluyole, elebu, apata links each other and most people in these areas are comfortable

So if anyone wants to make cake and he or she lives in one of these areas, such person would prefer someone closer. Bodija ui akobo is also okay but you can’t compare the population in those areas above to people in bodija akobo

And most companies in Ibadan are in those axis as well

My point is you need to be more closer to people who are likely to patronize you considering the population in those places unlike Agodi bodija ikolaba akobo which doesn’t have much population when compared to those places

i love ibadan. I've always been skeptical about that place until i visited oluyole estate. very serene and easy going place. no traffic. and the population of THE DEVELOPERS selling wares by the walk way is zero. living in Ibadan is like Lagos 1970 before the ibos came in and destroy the standard.
is like true.

Served there and stayed back...No regrets so far...I reside at Ikolaba, the light situation there is about 20 hours daily, perfect for my freelancing hustle
how do you manage that, do you work at a work space or work directly from home without neighbours poke nosing because not many understand working from home... I am planning to relocate to Ibadan next year ...

I work from home directly. Most of my neighbors then worked from home too, so we no get wahala. Asides that, if you're looking for a house in any part of Nigeria as someone who hustles from home, just make sure you find a compound with enlightened people or folks who hustle almost similarly as you.

I've moved out from that vicinity though. I now stay at Felele, Challenge

Let's face it, there's a biting recession in the country. Perhaps you've lost your job and are considering a career change. Perhaps you're considering setting up a business.
School fees in many parts of Lagos (especially in the island/ Lekki axis) are sky high, cost of living is high, and transportation keeps going up. Don't even mention rents as that is the biggest enabler of poverty in Lagos.




Many people dread September / January because of the double whammy of rents and school fees in Lagos.
You may be wondering what you are s


till doing in Lagos sef! If no promising career is attaching you to the state, it may interest you to discover that other cities outside Lagos may fit the bill as a place to live for your young family.

Quality affordable schools, modern


accommodation at a fraction of the Lagos cost, cheap transportation, more affordable cost of living, and more safety and security.

Ibadan is one such place if I may make a suggestion. I moved here 2 years ago and


my family has never regretted the decision.



All this places dem dey show you self...the rent self pass some arras in Lagos...

A 2 Bedroom flat around my vicinity should be between 250-350k depending on the standard.
The light situation isn't that encouraging, at least when compared to the former place I stayed. I currently use a generator.

When looking for a place, ensure most of the occupants are young folks between 25-35. Avoid compounds with married families with kids, they'll use gossip to frustrate your life due yo your hustle.

Give me Ibadan or give me death.

Many people don't realize that Ibadan is a jewel of a city.

But please yah'all don't come and Lagosify Ibadan for us o. We don't want your tollshytes, traffic, Tinubu stuff.

In spite of all this, I still prefer Lagos to Ibadan because of the interesting opportunities it provides to graduates and professionals.
