Hi Guys.... this might not be news but I just tried something today and I was stunned to my bones... I was on the island running some errands and I had no idea how to locate my destinations given that most addresses there are kinda scattered so I brought out my iPhone, launched my google maps and once I clicked on start navigation....... it took me directly to my destination with voice prompt, actual amount of time it will take me to drive there and accurate turning points..... this is so amazing, ya'll should try it and share your views.....


I have no problem going to look for people again henceforth



Been using it for over 7yrs.

I had a few incidents though.
Unfortunately, on this day, I had 2 of my bosses in the car and decided to use the short google route which will save us from a 30min loop. I have been around the area and aware there was another road but never tried until that fateful day. The road was indeed a very good short cut but.was 1qqmissing a bridge. On both sides of the missing bridge was were asphalt road. The saviour was an earth roàd that goes through down the valley to the other side.

Was in Minna 2 days ago looking for NECO office, the search returned exact location but it turn out there were 2 offices, one in town and the HQ out of town on Bida rd. The problem was that my search had every thing but didn't specify the HQ against the state office. I got to the state office before I realized that another office was on the map but couldn't see it from a zoomed screen.
