Introduction

You have been quite familiar with my town over time but to serve as a reminder, I reside in a town known as Osogbo, the capital city of the state (Osun), one of the notable places that have preserved the Yoruba culture and some traditional practices. Enough of that intro, let me walk you through my town in ten pictures.


1. UfitFly

UfitFly is a travel agency in my town (a branch to precise and has branches across Nigeria) that is into services like Flight reservations, Visa counseling, International education consult, Pilgrimage, Airport transfer, and so on. It's one of the local businesses of its kind that many people have utilized for their International traveling stuff. Let's talk about the name, UfitFly, it is coined from three Pidgin English words (a variance of local English language in Nigeria), lol.

U stands for You, fit stands for Can and Fly retains its standard meaning Fly, all combined to pass across the message, "You can fly (travel internationally) easily with us".


2. Maxwell Telecoms

Maxwell telecoms is mobile phone store that is involved in the sales of products like Infinix mobile phones and other brands. I have no user experience with the firm but I have heard from a few friends who had visited there before, for purchase precisely. It's just along one of the local markets I often utilize for foodstuff purchases.


3. Destiny International College

Destiny International College is one of the popular colleges in my town with an acclaimed British standard mode of education. Well, I can't say much about the college but the online review says a few good things about them. It's located behind the popular religious center in my town, The Dream Centre of Life Oasis....


4. Oduwoye Petrol Station

Oduwoye is a local petrol station with numerous other stations in my town. The first time I bought petrol from this station was during the heat of fuel scarcity in my town, it was one of the few stations that has the products for sale at that time, although, at a hiked price but I was able to get the needed fuel on several occasions, to power the electricity generator.


5. Bowas Global Ventures

Bowas global ventures is a local business that is into the sales of mobile phones and computers. It was quite a small business but has many small stores like the one shown above across the town. The firm is not only into the sales of these products but at the same time offers repairs of mobile phones and other electronics.


6. Osun State Fire Service Station

We all know the purpose of fire service in a town, city, or nation, it's all about being available to take care of fire cases within their region. Above is the Osun state fire service station located in an area known as Oke-Fia of my town.


7. Osun State Judiciary High Court

Above is a part of the entrance of the state's judiciary high court of justice in my town. In one of my previous articles, I highlighted that there was a dispute over the apartment that I occupy at the moment and I've been called to be a witness to the issue. Last week was quite busy because I spent some of my time at the court signing some documents, maybe I would be appearing in the court in a few weeks as one of the witnesses.


8. Inioluwa Store
