I have a neighbour who resides in Benin city, works as a Physics teacher in a private school and earns 60k as salary, plus extra 55k as a private lesson tutor.

She was recently given a job offer, after applying, in one Microfinance bank in Trade fair, Lagos state. The Microfinance bank has its headquarter in Europe.
The pay is 76k for the first 6 months. After which there will be an upward review to 96k.


Problem is she doesn't know which one to choose, as she is tired of teaching and life in Benin. And wants to experience Lagos life.

I wanted to tell her of the life, stress and traffic in Lagos. But had to withdraw, because I haven't been in Lagos for years now. So chances are that i may tell her what is not true.

And secondly, she has no accommodation in Lagos, but wants to go stay with a friend.

I do not know what to tell her.

Your suggestion highly needed.

Thank you

She better stay in benin

Must she experience Lagos life

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea.

Both are BS

She should apply to teach English in an Asian country like China or Vietnam


They pay like $6000 per 2 weeks

Let her continue with the teaching of physics and research extensively on how she can get recruited as a physics teacher in the UK as UK is facing extreme shortage of Physics teachers, so let her continue in the field
