MY ADVENTURE IN A NIGERIA MARKET:IT WAS FUN

in life •  7 years ago 

If you are a Nigerian, and most especially you live around any of the Western part of the country...to narrow it down to the "biggest city" in Africa; IBADAN, then I am sure you would really love to see the captured sight of a particular and one of the most common market in the city on steemit.

Talking of "AGBENI MARKET"

This market is popularly known for its diverse segment of goods which are display for sales.

NOW LET PHOTOS TALK!!!

The entrance to the main marketing point was jammed up due to the narrow road which does not allow free movement of two or more Vehicles at a time.

But finally we got our way into the main market, now the hustling bustling things in proper.

There are various goods displayed beautifully to attract the attention of the buyers...

After some minutes of window shopping with my sister, she decided to do her shopping at her own chosen shop...but she can bargain ehn...just see her here

Now take a look at me observing the market and her from a corner...

Having gotten what my sister wanted, we had to head back to the car park...but she needed some other things which gave me the opportunity to observe some other things like some truck-pushers who stack up their trucks with various goods to be delivered to their various destination...

This one below got me thinking "why can he not stack this goods bits by bits, instead of overloading it to the extent of him needing two other people who were pushing while he was pulling?"

We left the market to park atlast.
Heading back home, we past through another popular market called "OGUNPA MARKET".

In this market, when you need items like clothing materials, jewelries and all other types of wears...then just head down to the market

I was able to capture some things in the moving vehicle...

We drove for about 5mins before taking a left turn to another interesting part of the city, DUGBE, that is where you will get to see buildings that are as tall as 200ft and more including one of the tallest building in Africa, THE COCOA HOUSE

THE COCOA HOUSE with height of about 344feet

Passing past this old building, we had to drive for about 10mins and home we got...

Here I am telling you how I spent my day...

THE SHOTS ABOVE SHOW HOW NIGERIANS CAN HUSTLE AND STILL MAKE IT IN LIFE WHICH MAKE ME SAY

I AM PROUD TO BE AN AFRICAN AND
SPECIFICALLY A NIGERIAN LADY...

SHOUT OUT TO ALL NIGERIANS!!!
