Why Lagos?
Lagos,the hustle city of Africa
Lagos began as a small fishing settlement founded by the Awori, part of the Yoruba people. In the late 15th century, Portuguese traders arrived and named the area “Lagos,” connecting it to growing international trade routes and gradually transforming it into an important coastal trading hub.
By the 19th century, after the end of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, Lagos developed into a major center of commerce and administration under the rule of the United Kingdom. It later became the capital of Nigeria, and today it stands as one of Africa’s most vibrant and influential cities
