myPadi.ng is a hyper-local online platform geared towards making school stress-free starting with providing easy access to short term and long term housing for students, NYSC members and young professionals in Nigeria.
Because we understand the pain of walking around and going through billboards, newspaper, and other unverified portals to search for off-campus hostels and roommates, myPadi.ng integrates the whole long process of searching, contacting owners, and viewing, booking hostels and roommates into one safe & secured, free-to-use and hassle-free platform.
The first version of MyPadi.ng (formely HostelsVilla & Studacom.ng) was uploaded 17th of June, 2016 and formally launched 30 August, 2016 after a beta period of about 75 days.
