RECAP: Jabi Lake Mall Photo Walk

[SanyaOdare]

Interior: Jabi Lake Mall, Abuja - Nigeria

I have heard so much about the grandeur beauty that Jabi Lake Mall has to offer and I couldn't just wait to capture it with my camera phone - in the company of other Local Guides in Abuja. FYI, Abuja is the capital of Nigeria. Although I live and work in Lagos, however I couldn't afford to miss an opportunity of having fun moments with Local Guides in Abuja and hosted this particular meet-up. Distance between Lagos and Abuja is 11h 7 min drive and 1 hour 15 minutes by flight. I opted for the latter instead.

I arrived Abuja Friday afternoon, did a pre meet-up visit to the Mall and familiarised myself with the venue - ahead of the D-day. On Saturday, I got to the Mall few minutes before 10:00am (Local Time) even though the meet-up was scheduled to start at 11:00am. @Silooobaba arrived first and followed by @Zinta. It didn't take long before other Local Guides like @Zee_dora, @Chizbeth arrived as well and we indeed had a full house.

One interesting thing I observed during this meet-up was that, the store owners / representatives were very warm and welcoming towards us - such that we were allowed to freely take photographs and even record videos - to be uploaded on Google Maps. This aforementioned gesture from store owners / representatives really attest to the fact that Local Guides impact are being felt immensely here in Nigeria.

Please feel free to take a look at the photo album for this meet-up here and leave your comments below.
