Lagos is a beautiful place filled with awesome and amazing people. The cost of living is not high; 3 bedroom flat you can get for 200k-300k. Lagos is a place where you can start up a business 👩‍💼, it’s a place of great opportunities and filled with hardworking youth, parents and families. Lagos has a huge population of people but it’s a cool place to base. With the help of God we are surviving.

Know about the lack of steady electricity and you must be able to have a good agent. Get a secured area. Note that there are at least different churches in each area and the private schools within each area are excellent and well equipped.

There are also many festivals and while being fun, they are also educational. Practically every celebration is a mini-festival, regardless of the occasion or the time of day. Weddings in Lagos are either go big or go home. Thousands of people even the locals show up unless it is strictly by invite. The halls are decorated to perfection and the people are in their best clothes. If you are Nigerian you have two weddings: your white church wedding and your traditional wedding which is supposed to be done in your father’s house but now people just do them in halls. Everyone looks forward to traditional weddings because both sides meet. Then of course you get sprayed with money.

When people hear about Nigeria the first place they think about is Lagos. Lagos is unique because of its rich culture; everyone knows about Christmas in Lagos. The parties, the concerts and the festivities that always take place have made Christmas in Lagos a thing. Many mainstream musicians come to Lagos during Christmas. Examples are Migos, Future, Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion and many more.

Lagos is a big and populous city. It is a very fun place; you will find big shopping malls, water parks, tall buildings, churches and mosques. The capital city of Lagos is Ikeja. In Lagos it is everyman for himself. Commercial goes on everyday, there is no holiday for commercial activities. Nothing is free.

In Lagos everything is about hustle and bustle, because you strive to survive. You have to be smart because there are a lot of scammers living in the state itself. Although you will meet a bunch of nice people do not trust any one, let your friend be your bible.
