Cost of Living in Lagos

Bill Silva, It is more likely a scam than true.

Regards,
Nigerian.

let me update you regading the food price in nigeria.i will mention food price in shoprite,parknshop and hubmart.all imported goods in hypermarkets in nigeria are overpriced.1kg of imported orange is 3200 naira,and 1 dollar=364 naira.if you want to buy cheap alcohol i recommend you Bazar in Ilupeju.on Shoprite one bottle of Martini is 4000 Naira,on Bazar is 3000 Naira.local oranges are dry,with bad taste.all Hypermarkets are full of low quality products,due the fact africans don't have much education in eating healthy.contrary,they think everything from supermarket is high quality.africans are poisoned
intentionally by soft drinks companies.nigerians are drinking coke like no other nation,thinking that coke is the most healthiest drink.

Looking for honest, reliable, and responsible business partner in Nigeria. I am interested in clothing, fashion, fabrics, models, fashion shows etc.

The partnership is 50/50 import/export.

No Nigerian scammers!

As long as naira has fallen a lot comparing with dollar,cost of living in Lagos is expensive.import products are 20-50% more expensive than Europe.1kg of orange is 1000 Naira on Shoprite and 3200 Naira on Spa.in Europe 1kg of imported orange is 600 Naira.all the prices now in Nigeria are made according to the US dollar(1 dollar=497 Naira).house pricing is over ratted.even local products are getting more expensive.Nigeria has plunged into a terrible economical crisis,due the lack of economical knowledge from President Buhari.power system already collapsed 2-3 times,so don't expect too much,but power generators are part of daily life in Nigeria.if you wanna buy cheap alcohol,try indian Bazar.they are cheaper than Shoprite and Park'N'Shop.for taxi best is Uber,they are cheap and have good cars.from Shoprite Ikeja to Shoprite Surulere,i payed 1500 Naira.most of quality restaurant you will find them in Victoria Island.Iphones are cheaper than Europe,also cigarettes are cheap.stay away from any people asking money on line or any other cheap reason.think twice before using your bank account to pay.

My fiance is over in your country she need to get back to the state so we can get married I'm wondering I might never have another chance to married her not is Jasmine Hopson please help her get back to the state by January 9-2017

Thanks for the advice of the honest nigera people. I read more than one story that matches my own. Sounds like I've been scammed. Those who are honest keep up the good work.

How can I verify if there is a man by the name of Wallace Cummings in Shepherd Specialist Hospital, Lagos Nigeria? I have tried calling and emailing the hospital with info obtained online, and I never get an answer or a reply. And how to verify if there is a doctor there by the name of Olotu Kayode; aka, Dr. Williams. And there is another contact name involved, Kingsley Ebewehele. If anyone knows how to verify any of this info, or if anyone has heard anything about any of these given names, I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

I want to use this platform to advise everybody here not to send money to anyone. They are all scammers.

They claim that they came to do some things in Nigeria but somehow, they need money to do one thing or the other. The question you should ask yourself before sending money to anyone is that why can't he/she contact his friend, colleague, family, employer etc instead of getting in touch with you a complete stranger?

Whatever information they give you as their own is there on the internet and belongs to someone else. Even the pictures, name, address are so true to doubt but I tell you, those informations are not their's.

They browse the internet and extract some vital informations that belongs to other people and what they do is that they impersonatea. So when they want to scam you, they just supply you with those informations. So when you search for those informations on the internet, you discover that they are correct, BUT you forgot that you have not seen them physically.

My advise is this. Do not send money to anybody who claim to travel to Nigeria from Europe or other part of the world.

Tell them to contact their families that they left in Europe for such. They can use the social media twitter, facebook etc to do so.

Majority of Nigerians are honest people.

We are going to put a stop to corruption and those
who spoil the image of Nigeria.

Our new President is fighting corruption and he has the support of all Nigerians.

God bless my country Nigeria

Company offers me 1200usd per month so please tell me is it ok to survive in ogun nigeria .

I meet a guy name Larry Shawn.he is a engineer and he lives in Texas but he went to Nigeria to do some work. Now he is asking for money for food and hotel stay. Do anyone else no him l have pictures and I met him on Facebook.

am a Nigerian living in Malaysia and have seen what guys are doing here and in my country Nigeria. pls if any one cook up a story, tell you how ebola kill his only son don,t believe him , even here in Asia same format , true love will not not ask for money and the story always the same, Nigeria is a nice country to live and do business but come to marriage or international relationship don,t send ,don,t trust until you meet him/her if you can,t believe then learn from others for more information about Nigeria me

#Karen,I'm from the United States ,i have fallen in love with this man ,his name was Frank,Frank manipulated me into this love with him we text for about 2_3months. he swore that he loved me ask me to marry him ,and i told him that we needed to talk about it.oh well,Frank was suppose to come see me this month well he waited two days before his departure to ask me for money,the sad thing is this i knew that he was lying from the beginning,but being blindsided by what i wanted i was the fool,and the saddest thing about I'm still in love with him.maybe your Frank and my Frank are the same person.just curious.

Ya know... its totaly up to you if you want to send money to someone. When it becomes a "Scam" is when they have excuse after excuse for needing more. The Allmighty dollar is is losing its value more and more becoming meaningless in the end anyways. Give to people on thier birthdays or not at all whatever! What's more costly are your emotions! Keep them in your control you'll be much better off. Whats really bad is when money is hoarded. It needs to circulate and breath to be able to serve a greater purpose. I myself would rather hear from someone, look im broke can you spare a few bucks! Thats more respectable. If more people have a little money people are less desperate and society is better. You can agree with some of this i said or not it dont matter just like money in the end.

The woman that scamed me,a little money. Said send in security at hotel. His name is ONYEKACHI NGAKWE. Don't send money. Her name. Magdalena Wills. All a big scam.

My advice to those of you that are thinking of sending money DONT! its all a scam!I have lived in and visited large cosmopolitan in my 55yr and im don't allow anyone to convince me to give them money! Believe me I've heard all these story's myself!Just tell them no that you are poor and cant eat yourself. Or there's always churchs you can send money to and have that person go pick it up there!

Do they have government support in Nigeria for food, clothing and shelter? If not how do the poor get these things?

I meet this guy off internet nelson Hubbard or Brian Hubbard ..and at first all he talked about was his job then when he ask for money I sent it a coupe of times then I figured out he was a scammer I stopped he started treating to kill me or my kids

I'm Nigerian. I believe Nigeria is wonderful. It's a safe place to be with diverse, beautiful and wonderful cultures. However, I cannot over emphasize a truth that only a dense and foolish man will bypass: NEVER TRUST A STRANGER. Every city, every land, every country promotes this rule. Why? Because human beings are dangerous. Whether black, white, brown, red or yellow. In fact, if you're very conversant with the news, you'll know that Nigeria is one of the safest and most peaceful countries in the world. Sometimes, I marvel at Nigerians who take this country for granted. The only challenge in this country is CORRUPTION. But then tell me, which country is free of corruption? India, UK, USA, Australia? NONE! The only advantage that some of these countries have is that their governments perform 75% of their societal duties. We don't experience bullying, outright rapes and serial murders like some countries do. Nigerians are FREE to express themselves. We lash out at the corruption of our leaders if need be, we openly practice our cultures and beliefs. It is only in Nigeria you find people pray for you when you start to demonstrate behaviours contrary to your gender. Nigerians stand up for each other. It's only in Nigeria people that don't know you mourn with you, rejoice with you, correct your child for you. Nigeria is a strong nation with a strong people. There is no country on the face of the earth where you won't find a Nigerian, because we can SURVIVE anywhere. If you claim to have been scammed, it's simply because of your stupidity and ignorance, it's not a Nigerian factor. You can get scammed by any one from any race, any country, any gender, if you allow it. There's a Yoruba Adage that says, "Eni to n wofa nifa n mu." Meaning: "It's the man who goes out looking for traps that gets trapped."

There are a lot of scammers on the web anybody ask you for money is a scammer. I traveled to Nigeria and Ghana on several occasions and there are a lot of TEENAGE KIDS AMERICAN WOMEN THAT YOU THINK ARE FULL GROAN MEN BUT ARE REALLY KIDS. PLease don't fall for they are working in Nigeria. If they are in Nigeria they are living there. They are not contractors they are liars liars liars. Not all in Nigeria are bad but you must be careful. Please read about scamming before you even began a international relationship and my advice. Chat on video. Skype if they can't they are gaming.

Hi, I'm looking into a potential scammer Susan Milton from Lagos. Any info is appreciated.

You know Pretty you are very smug and quick to belittle other people. You couldn't possibly understand unless you've been through it. Yes, I've probably been scammed but if I have I'm not alone. Millions of very smart people around the world have been scammed by these people. If you don't know what you're talking about and you obviously don't, you should keep your mouth shut!

I have been in a relationship with this guy in Lagos for 2years. He supposedly was stopped in customs and detained with a package containing cocaine. He said he didn't know there was cocaine in it. He was flying home to be with me. He is in jail and he says they want a $2000 bribe and they will let him go. I had sent him money to pay for the plane ticket. How could I find out if he is really in jail?
