Nigeria is a hub of commercial activity, with a large population of multinational corporates, entrepreneurs, and public sector institutions. Lagos has a progressive energy, with largely untapped growth opportunities. Hundreds of projects are currently underway in Nigeria to improve the country's infrastructure problems - such as roads, water- and railways. Whilst Lagos is an attractive investment location, the last five years have seen significant interest in secondary cities in Nigeria. Enugu, Abeokuta, Calabar and Uyo have all seen impressive growth, with reports stating 100 percent to 200 percent increases in rental and land values over the past half decade.
