WHY WEGEDA?
In Nigeria, ambitious individuals face a daunting reality: to pursue careers in cities like Lagos, they must contend with exorbitant living costs, making it a challenge to achieve their dreams. Wegeda steps in to break down these barriers, providing a safe, affordable, and flexible room-sharing platform that empowers individuals to thrive in their chosen paths. Our community-driven marketplace connects like-minded individuals, ensuring a seamless experience as they navigate life.
For example: many graduates tend to relocate to Lagos after their tertiary education. But the thing is, the cost of accommodation is high in Lagos, relative to that of other states.
With Wegeda, the recent graduate, with their entry-level remuneration, can look for a house close to their workplace, within a safe community of verified users, and pair with someone, as a roommate, or flatmate, to reduce the cost burden.
