As A First Time Resident In Kaduna, What Do I Need To Know by NdiEgede: 5:16am On Sep 12, 2023
Hello everyone, I am a Resident in one of the eastern states and recently got a job in kaduna. It’s a contract work, so I am only staying for a few months. Having been residing in the east all my life, I would like to find out from Kaduna residents about the environment. It is my first time visiting the north hence, I am a bit unsettled about the insecurity. I know the east has its bouts of disorder in some parts too, hence I understand that this is a nationwide problem. However, I would like to know what is at stake there, including:

1. Cost of living
2. Social activities
3. Food costs
4. In-state transport (is there Uber or Bolt)
5. Market
6.what am I missing? Kindly help please!!!

**Welcome to Kaduna**
1. Cost of leaving is relatively cheap
2. Social activities much better and safer in the southern part.
3. Food cost also fair.
4. There is bolt but using tricycle will be much better.
5. Market is ok you can get all you need easily too.
6. Please don't live in the northern part. You can do whatever business you have there during the day but make sure you leave anything from 5pm to the south where there are lots of Christians and other mixed tribes.
7. Accomodation is better and safe in sabo, anguwan Sunday, some areas in barnawa, some areas in kakuri, Gonin Gora, Romi.
Note: feel free to ask whatever is not clear to you. I stay in Kakuri.
