A Nigerian X user has sent social media into a frenzy after sharing that he locked down a room-and-parlour apartment in Lagos for just N1.4 million, covering three full years of rent.
The Nigerian man, identified as @biggestposh, made the announcement on 31 August 2026, describing a gruelling house-hunting experience in Lagos before landing the deal.

He wrote that the process "almost finished" him, pointing to a wide gap between the prices agents quoted and the quality of what he was actually shown. Against that backdrop, the outcome he eventually secured was a relief he attributed to divine intervention.
Lagos: Man secures 3-year tenancy for N1.4m
The apartment, which comes with a full POP (Plaster of Paris) ceiling finish, is located in Yaba, one of Lagos's more centrally positioned neighbourhoods. To back up his claim, he posted a payment receipt showing a successful OPay transaction for exactly N1,400,000.00, along with interior photographs of the empty flat. He confirmed he would be moving in during September 2026.
He said:
"House searching in Lagos almost finished me 😭 The prices vs what I was seeing? Nothing was adding up 🫠"
"But God did it! Got this room and parlour with full POP for ₦1.4m for 3 years in Yaba, Lagos. 🥹🏠"
Moving in September! ❤️"
