Wetin dey Ughelli!

HowDareU:
Lagos is like the UK that will give you huge income with the right hand and snatch it with the left hand through tax and expenses. Ever since I moved to Ughelli in Delta State, my income and black tax has improved a lot.

Nobody is talking about ontisha. I thought its the same with Lagos. Lets not forget that onitsha is the biggest market in west-africa!

Dey play!

Love800:
In your Abeokuta, you will be static(no channels for avenues to market your values). Abeokuta is good for peace of mind. But na peace of mind go expand your ideas?

Lagos has that spark or vision of seeing endless routes for integrating with your life missions. The streams are there, but its not an easy road.

People may not be happy in lagos, but their minds are blissful, knowing that they can get profits or engagements(productivity) for their stay there!

b0rn2fuck:
To whom it may concern , moving out of Lagos has always been peaceful but boring, if you chose the peace part, you won't want to leave outskirt of Lagos but if you love the city life, Lagos is the best place for you, I have never witnessed congestion since leaving Lagos but there was a time I nearly died when one big hold up ,hold me from egbeda to ikotun , anytime.i visit Lagos, I will first prepared my mind for traffic and crazy people there
. I spent 27 years in Lagos before leaving

you left after visiting all Ashawo house in lagos abi

The only states and cities I can live in Nigeria are:


1.) Lagos state

2.) Enugu, Enugu state

3.) Owerri, Imo state

4.) Asaba, Delta state


Lagos remains a great city where dreams come true just like America. I love and cherish the chaotic, bustling, busy nature of Lagos, Eko Oni Baaje

Number 4 shouldn't be there, Asaba is as dry as whatever you think. No industry ONLY hotels and shopping malls

Ughelli is a nice town

Jésù... How?

There's money in farming. My uncle in the village is living far better than he was when he was in Lagos. His into farming of yam, palm fruit and cocoa.

probability of earning at least 300k a month in Lagos is higher than maybe someone staying in a place like kwara state.. though me personally no too like lagos because its too stressful omo..

iamL:


I know some persons that did exactly like he said and few years into their return from Lagos to their village they are balling.

I was personally involved in the case of a mutual friend, dude has his own thriving business and now married just within 3 years or returning to his village.

You guys should think before spilling out whatever nonsense that comes to your mind due to lack of exposure.

So your two case studies made your points valid?
Were you born by mistake?

SlavaUkraini:
If you have stayed 5 years in Lagos and have still not made it Big...... Then relocate back to your State, city or village..

Your Breakthrough is definitely not in Lasgidi

Many have relocated and they blew less than a year of Relocating.

bro five years is too much
1year and six month move out

Okay.

Thanks for the comment.

Dey play!

Lagos no sweet again o Lagos has lost its fun,every corner you turn ppl beg to eat,some sleep in streets so helpless with gv ignoring them.
You make money in Lagos you can't eat good food in Burka's during lunch hours:
1) NO INGRIDIENTS IN JOLLOF RICE ONLY CURRY AND PEPPER AT BURKAS

2) NO MORE BETTER AKARA,THEY MIX BEANS WITH STRANGE THINGS AND CALL IT AKARA.

3) NO BETTER BEEF IN D MEAL YOU
ORDERED,a SMALL GRAIN OF MEAT IN A PLATE OF FOOD which COST N2K minimum.

4) FUFU NKO,THEY NOW LACE FUFU WITH ALL MANNER of WHITE MATER TO BOOST GAINS,SO THAT WHITE THING IS NO FUFU

5) IN FACT EVEN WITH YOUR MONEY EATING OUT IN LAGOS IN BURKAS IS DAISY. AND EATING IN TOP RESTAURANTS WILL NEARLY BANKRUPT YOU.

ALSO Hypertransport in Lagos, hyper rents are draining residents,be you rich or poor.This is reality now if you are planning to come to Lagos.

victorDanladi:
Lagos shouldn't be for all.

As a yoruba guy,I have never dreamt of living in Lagos.

Give me my IBADAN AND ABUJA IN PEACE!

Why you come dey impersonate with Northern name?

Love800:
What do you mean by "you are from there?"
Your village is in Lagos?

Yes, that Ikeja, Idumota, VI in Lagos. Na person 'village' too..

Love800:
Why not substitute asaba with warri!

I don't like Warri, I cannot live in Warri. I can't live in Warri at all.

Meerahbel:

I know there are no industries in Asaba, I prefer Asaba for a reason. Besides, I am not looking for where to make money. If I decide to live permanently in Nigeria and I am not living in Lagos or Enugu, then it must be either Owerri Imo state or Asaba Delta state for a peaceful low-paced life.

Dalohad:

The same reason why you dey impersonate with that alien name of yours.

When did Victor become a Northern name?

Lol.

Alright, thanks

the way Nigeria is going… people will start relocating back to their villages to develop it and reside there … especially if your work is remote and there’s no need of ever showing at your place of work.

Only then, can a salary of 200k last you for 2weeks plus if you’re a good manager, and be able to save and buy some things for yourself too

Salary of 200k in Lagos last for 2 weeks 😭😢😢

I got a training opportunity with an oil and gas firm in Lagos sometime in 2019. I resigned my job in Abuja and moved to Lagos.

Our office was in Ajah. So I got a place around Lakowe. One weekend I decided to check up on my cousin staying at Alapere. I spent the weekend at her place and headed back to Ajah on Monday around 2pm.

We got to the Landmark center axis around 3pm or so.. There was a crazy gridlock on that Lekki-Epe expressway.

I sat down at the back and held on to my bag firmly. Three hours later, we didn't move 300 meters. engers kept dropping one after the other, I thought they had either gotten to their bus stop or maybe were hanging around for the traffic to ease.

6pm or so we were around Jakande.. I noticed an exodus of people trekking... and almost all the buses were empty, while others were looking for the easiest way to turn back.

That was when it dawned on me that all the people I saw walking by were actually engers that alighted from buses and were trekking back home... Omoh!

I jumped down from the bus, and ed the exodus of people happily cruising their legediz Benz to their respective destinations.

I got to Ajah bridge around 9pm, crossed over and got one Orijin bitters, crossed back and located the nearest transport company.. That was GUO.. I bought a ticket for the first bus heading to Abuja the next day.

That was how I ended my training with the firm.

Lagosians are very patient and resilient people!

Thank God you know how it feels, we are enduring

stanluiz:
I agree with you. That market that Lagos has, other commercial cities like onitsha, Kano and aba has it.

What gives lagos an edge in seaport. People talk about PH seaport. They are limits and type of goods that you can import from PH seaport. But Lagos seaport. You can import everything.

All seaport in Nigeria are not equal due to FG policy.

What about exports?

If Lagos is your village definitely you should own a land… definitely with a good management skill… 200k from a remote job should last you 2weeks plus because you’re not paying rent and not paying transportation to work daily

Do you know how much I spend on food and transportation, and I avoid women because na my salary be my life for lagos 😢😭

unbiased2021:
Not worth it. as an importer/businessman, living in Lagos gives you an advantage.

It's still the same people that have warehouses all over the country. What advantage exactly, when you can have people do whatever you need to do in Lagos for you?
