If you’re reluctant to catch up among diverse competitors; you may find it difficult to move a step from your original starting point. With the high level of competitors in Lagos, starting a business with small capital requires serious dedication and spirit of perseverance. I have witnessed many businesses that fold up after one to two years of their establishment because of the nature of Lagos environment.
