Between Alaba and trade fair, I don't know which to give the award for worst bad road in Tinubu's regime 😒 And with the motorcyclists and those darn truck pushers, it's a mess of a traffic...

You can actually find anything here, form home appliances, cell phones, electronics and a lot more. They sells at wholesale and retail prices which makes it way cheaper than other local markets. But is always busy and crowded.

A market for all things building and interior set-up but you've got to know quality as there's a fake to every real design. Also find repairers for TV, panels for solar, chandelier, cables, you name it. Very busy market. Just get a trusted supplier and you're good to go.

This part of selling a faulty device and after report saying they don't refund, it's actually the downside of this whole Alaba market thing

The place is over crowded, very rough terrain but you get good business deals. You can get anything you want in that market. It's a business hub

I’m giving it a 4 star not because of the infrastructure but because you can find a lot goods/products in this market if you go directly to the shop owners. And you will get at a good price too.
