I'll like to advice my brothers here to look before leaping. Emigration to a new country shouldn't be judged based on how serene a place looks alone. Other things should be put into consideration God bless us all |

Re: Any Nairalander In Abidjan? by Aringarosa(m): 3:48am On Aug 17, 2016 |
For those of you seeking to migrate to the Ivory Coast for job purposes, listen carefully : It will be very difficult to get a job in Abidjan without understanding the official language which is French, Ivory Coast is not a developed country like Europe or America, it is an emerging economy just like you have in Nigeria, the only difference is that their politicians are less corrupt compared to what we have in Nigeria, they utilize their resources judiciously to run their country and by so doing, they have better Infrastructures, basic amenities like water, electricity, good roads, transportation are first class, it's nothing compare to what we have in Nigeria. Security is almost water tight, you will not see or hear of rampant robbery or kiddapping, for the exception of petty thieves and of recent the dreaded (microb) small bandit that seems to terrorise certain areas such as abobo and yopougon, but the security apparatus of the state are slowly but surely putting them out of business. If you want to migrate for business purposes, that is to start a small scale to medium scale business, be prepared with your capital, depending on what you want to venture into, but you must come prepared. There are a lot of profitable business one can venture into if you are the type that is resilent and a risk taker. Concerning accommodation, it depends on the area you want to live. Just like in any country of the world, the highbrow areas are expensive and middle and low class areas are less expensive. Example of highbrow area - under the Cocody commune, you have Riviera, Deux-plateau, Angre, Attoban, etc, these areas are expensive to live compare to areas like Yopougon, Abobo, Adjame, koumassi, Port-bouet. There are other cheaper areas if you are the type that prefers living in the outskirts of the city, places like Grand-Bassam and Bingerville are much much cheaper and aren't far from the urban areas. If you are the type that is looking to import things from the Ivory Coast to Nigeria, I will advise you to seek knowledge from those Ejigbo women either in Nigeria or in Abidjan, these are the people who will tell you exactly what you can import from abidjan to Nigeria, because most of them where born in Ivory Coast, they know the intricacies of such business more than anyone else. If you are into teaching of the English language, you might probably get a job, because they have a lot of expatriate community in Abidjan and most of these expatriate children attend English schools and as such a whole lot of English schools are springing up daily, most are seeking for English teachers and basic computer teachers to fill in, in their schools. Food is about the most cheapest thing in the Ivory Coast, and they have Nigeria restaurants here too, run by Nigerians mostly Yoruba and Igbo women. They also sell Nigeria food stuffs in markets like Adjame and triechville. These are areas guys that willing to do business can look into, importing Nigerian food stuffs to sell here, cuz we have a lot of Nigerian communities here. There are different category of Nigerians living here in the Ivory Coast, the expatriate Nigerians - these are the Nigerians that work with the African Development Bank (ADB), Embassies, Red Cross, Caritas, USaid, etc. Then you have the big to medium investors who are into industries, hotels, entertainment, motor parts, etc. Finally, you have the petty traders who are into electronics, used cloth/Shoes/bags/ business. Depending on whom you meet among these group, they will tell a different story about the country base on the level they operate. All in all, before you migrate to a country where you know nobody or speak the language you have to come prepared, if you don't want to be stranded or have regret, this is not to discourage anybody who wants to come and try his or her luck. After all, when I left Nigeria to Ivory Coast for the first time, i could barely understand French, but today the story is different.... As for me, the Ivory Coast is my adopted home. I have travelled to a whole lot of country in Africa and Europe, but this is the only country i enjoyed living and doing business. Everything works here, if you have a good job or business, you will enjoy living in the Côte d'Ivoire - My personal opinion. 28 Likes 4 Shares |

Thanks for your insightful analysis. I actually opened the thread but along the line, I got discouraged over the price of renting a house there. I was told I won't get a house anywhere in Abidjan at less than 25k nigerian naira monthly. In Bingerville and the other area you just mentioned, how much can one get a room self and how is rent paid there? I am a retiree on monthly pension of 46k which I expect will improve by end of this year. I plan to retire to Abidjan with my wife and two little kids. My question is this, can 100k take me to Abidjan by road and get me a one room self contain? In Bingerville, can we live on a 46k monthly pending when I get something doing like starting up a little business? |
