A piece of land in the bush.
Even with 300k you won't get a plot in Ib except you're willing to live in a bush.

A plot cost 1-1.5mill on average In a standard area.

I don't know why people keep saying Ibadan is very cheap. I moved to ibadan last year because of all this talk. Yea it is slightly cheaper than Lagos, but when you realize that that some things like electronics, phones, and some other house hold equipments are more expensive here (when compared to lagos), then you start to wonder if it is really worth it. Accommodation is the only thing that is slightly cheaper here. And land is not as cheap as OP claims it is. Plot of land sells for over a million here, unless you want to go and buy land in the forest. Don't be fooled... Ibadan is not as cheap as people make it out to be.

wristbangle:
I think the cheapest cities in Nigeria are Ilorin, Enugu, Ibadan, Abeokuta, Kaduna, Minnat, Benin

afroluxpaint:

babyfaceafrica:
Oshogbo

murmee:
What about Oshogbo, the capital of Osun state? Can someone educate us on the cost of living there. How is life in that city generally?

stinggy:


I know ilorin very well. It's a big town

Oga calm down. I served in sapele and it's almost like my second home, lovely place but it's a town! Aba is a city. How you put Aba and Sapele in the same category is strange to me oo
