Good day fams. Hope y'all are doing great?

I've been seeing online and in the news more frequently about Akwa Ibom being the "Nigerian Silicon Valley", as more devs are running away from Lagos and Abuja, because of its high cost of living, mental stress, etc, to Akwa Ibom.

I'm a computer science student and I'm currently looking for a place to do my SIWES/IT for the next six months. And honestly I'd wish it to be Lagos and Abuja since this is where the "big" tech firms are. However I think I've had to reconsider because of housing, as I was thinking of HiiT in Ikeja, but the lowest price for self con I saw was #500k.

So I'd love if you are in Akwa Ibom to please share your view of the place and also list any firm you can refer to for doing SIWES/IT for the next 6 months as a computer science student.

Thanks 🙏.
