Greetings all, my name is Joseph Okuku from Nigeria, I signed up for local Guide because I saw a great opportunity to satisfy a need and be useful to my community. In Lagos where I live, many where paying so much to locate their destinations and even with Google maps, most destinations where misleading and many where not properly entered so I made a little research on how to enlist places in the map and since then I have included many businesses, places, estates, streets and location in the map for instance, my own street, Ogoyo estate was not listed in the map along with places like Idado estate. I was glad when these places finally appeared in Google maps, my little effort paid off.
