Posted by: Rianat Sanni in Real Estate, Vox-Pop May 5, 2017 0 After a thorough house hunt, what’s next is deciding whether you want to live alone or get a roommate. In some cases, this is already decided even before renting an apartment. This week, we conducted a vox pop on Facebook– would you rather live alone or get a roommate? It was not surprising that many people chose to rather live alone. We also found out that many of the people who had ever gotten a room mate for themselves had negative experiences with them. Below are some of the notable, hilarious and insightful comments : Apeh Mercy – Alone baby… No energy for roommate issh Effecter Fasimoye Gbemiro Follu-Gee – Live alone… Roommate experience is terrible for me Kehinde Onaopemipo Adeola – Never had a room mate. Even at home, I have a room Adebowale Popoola – Except my room mate is an opposite sex Cencia Okwara – Alone mbok…. Even my siblings knows am a lone ranger??. Can’t fit shout! Ade Nike – I’m presently living alone after sharing a flat with different types of people (guys, ladies). Most of them, a baggage of stress. And headache. Linda Walter Andem – My own left the room I gave her rent free and was using mine to entertain men when I travel….as I don’t know how to lock doors….hmm Chibunkem Mercy Nwakanma – Loner mbok ?? Mary Etakoh – Hmmm.. Everyone’s saying live alone.. I live alone tho, but I’ve had roommates bf, a lot at that.. for me, it was a wonderful experience, one I can never forget.

My opinion!
