LOL. These are fallacies bro. Abuja isn't exclusive to Maitama and Asokoro. Even in those places, there are still places you can sort yourself out on hustler levels.


Common bro, big boy like me, can't enter certain plaves, it's beneath my station. grin


Jokes aside, seriously Abuja is an expensive city to live

Local Place? Lol. I Av Not Being 2 D Place B4. But Don't 4get Dat It's D Capital Of Ur Country Where Ur President & Other Political Figures Resides.

Forget capital. Capital was formerly Lag. So, no biggies. And your president posh? tongue. where are the political figures? Those ancient and times men? tongue lol...

Jokes apart, ive always viewed the place as a very local area right from my child hood days. Now, I'll tell you why. It funny though.

During my childhood days, I knew of some people who moved to Abuja ( on official transfer) and then when they came visiting lag again after a while, they were looking like they just came in from the bush. like their lifestyle changed.their dressing and the way they spoke changed. Their way of doing things and all that, compared to what we have here. And they were known to use one common slang like "ba" so since then I just viewed the place somehow. Maybe childish thought but I still see those things in them when ever I happen to meet one.

Please this is just my opinion.

The Amount of fuel you will burn to reach those mini restaurants daily is enough to offset the difference.
Anyways I don't usually stay that long, as soon as I finished what I came to do, I leave that city the next day.

You wanna enjoy Abuja, don't be a hustler. BE LOADED!
Gbam. You don talk am finish. Do your business and get out. Me too when my contract was up and I sensed they didnt want to renew it I pavked my load and exited. Some people were shouting thay I should stay and hustle. I told them I will hustle from outside the abuja. Dem dey talk like say na dem go feed me.

Lol...you just affirmed that you are actually doing a guess work. Why not ask someone you know or open a thread and ask how much a sachet water is sold in Abuja. Lol funny people. Chief it's 10naira I
even in Maitama

Asin eh bros, I just tire
The notion that Abuja is very expensive to live is one of the biggest fallacies ever.
Lagos and Portharcourt as far as I'm concerned are even more expensive to live than Lagos.

A very good percentage of the comments are all lies, mostly from guys who see Lagos as heaven.

Like you rightly said, Abuja is the best place to live in Nigeria.

Someone said a plate of food in mama put is N500, wtf?

OP, if you have your 150-200k, move to Abuja and start your life.

In the next ten years, you'll be glad you did.

Abuja is cool, but the rent can kill if you're not so strong financially. There are highbrow areas and there are lungus depending on your taste and budget.

You'll enjoy it even more as basic things like foodstuff, transportation etc. are quite cheap. Note that some areas and houses are marked for demolition across FCT so do your findings well before moving into any house.

Saying transportation is cheap is relative. Which other state are you making this comparison with?

Saying transportation is cheap is relative. Which other state are you making this comparison with? Because in the state i came from, nobody will ask for 150 to drive you from Next Cash and Carry to Airport Junction. Tell OP the basic truth:

1. Abuja is an expensive town on all fronts.
2. I’ve noticed in the last 3 months that the spending power of residents here has dwindled.
3. Cost of transportation here is high. You don’t have a car in Abuja, you’re f**ked.
4. You’ll enjoy this City more staying in select areas. Places like Maraba, Jikwoyi are far out of town and come with the attendant cost of transportation.

OP I’m saying this because months ago I opened a fact finding thread about Abuja and I travelled down here 2 months ago to survey for relocating my business.
