Dating in Port Harcourt
Port Harcourt is the Garden City, the centre of Nigeria's oil and gas industry and a busy, sociable place where many people work long rotations or irregular hours. Wrati helps people here meet someone who fits their life, with intentions stated before anyone meets.

What dating in Port Harcourt is actually like
The Old and New GRA, Trans-Amadi, Rumuola, Rumuokoro and Choba each have their own feel, and traffic on the main roads can stretch a short trip. Agreeing on a convenient public place keeps first meetings simple.
Offshore and shift work mean many people are away for weeks at a time or work unusual hours. Being honest about your schedule is as important here as being honest about what you are looking for.
Ikwerre, Ijaw, Kalabari, Ogoni and other Rivers communities live alongside people from across Nigeria, with Pidgin as the common ground. In-chat translation helps when two people are more comfortable in different languages.
Dating, relationships and marriage in Port Harcourt
People in Port Harcourt look for everything from dating to marriage, and family still matters when it gets serious. Wrati shows each person's intention, and selfie verification helps you know who is real.
Whatever you are looking for, you say it up front. Your intention — Marriage, Long term, Short term and others — is shown to the people you match with, so someone looking for a life partner and someone looking to date can each find people who want the same thing.
Love in your language
Languages commonly spoken in Port Harcourt include English, Nigerian Pidgin, Ikwerre, Ijaw, Kalabari and Igbo. On Wrati you can list the languages you speak, and in-chat translation helps when you and your match do not share a first language.

Meeting safely
Keep conversations in the app until you trust someone, meet in a busy public place, tell a friend your plans and never send money to someone you have not met. If anyone makes you uncomfortable, block and report them — both are free for everyone. Read more in our safety guide and privacy policy.
Frequently asked questions
Is Wrati free for both men and women?
Yes. Creating a profile, photo verification, discovering people, matching and starting conversations are free for everyone. Premium is optional and adds extras such as unlimited chats and calling.
Can I use Wrati if I am looking for marriage rather than dating?
