A married couple who have left Nigeria to pursue a postgraduate and a new career in Edinburgh have been taken aback by the difficulty in finding an affordable home to rent.
Oluwaseun Ayodele Kolade, Seun for short, 26, left his home in Ibadan, Nigeria this summer in order to study as a postgraduate in digital campaigning and content creation at Queen Margaret University (QMU).
His wife, Peace Esther Kolade, also 26, has remained at home whilst Seun searches for a one bed flat or studio where they can both stay. But he has found great difficulty in securing a home within their budget and a location that would make commuting to QMU easy.
