L A G O S

Just about everywhere, money changes hands. Either legally, illegally, incentives, tips, or by outright extortion.
From the mainland to the island, lazy, isn't a word.
People work hard to make a penny into a pound, or a kobo, naira.

It's a consistent reminder that Nigerians and by extension, Africans are hard working.

All in the bit to keep body and soul together, the petty traders in search for a daily income, to the employee that's up and about early to beat the rush hour, to the entrepreneur that struggles bills and general necessities, to the miscreants on busy roads that create nuisance to make easy changes, to the motorcycle riders that navigate the tiny streets and heavy traffic etc...all have one thing in common - HardWork.

Meet Lagos. . . the hustle is at its peak.
