Dear all
Thanks for creating this nice forum. Today I got a call from recruiting agency who is offering me $7000 (all inclusive ; no accommodation or nothing) for 6 month project in Nigeria. It can be Lagos or Abuja not sure. Is the salary okay? How much would I be able to save after all expenses?
Thanks
Amit

nice catch, and the pay is cool but the issue is the accommodation in Lagos or Abuja is quite expensive and hardly will you see anyone that is ready to rent out his house for half a year but if聽 the agency can help you shout, then you should enjoy yourself, things are a bit cheap in Nigeria...may i ask which country you are coming from?

That is great. However, $7,000 without an accommodation isn't good. Because if you want to live safely in Nigeria, you'll need a good accommodation. Don't take jobs without accommodation provision because it won't be that easy for you, unless you have close friends in Nigeria who can help you.
