QUESTION OF LIVING IN YOLA

13POSTS

13 years ago

Hi,

I am thinking about moving to Yola to go to the American university there.

Does anyone have any opinion on this?

Do they have decent apartments to live in? Do you know the average cost?

Is it relatively safe or do people walk around with armed security?

Please inbox me or email me if you feel better chatting in private.

i can afford a lot but i dont like to spend so much.

How about 500$ for a one bedroom apartment?
