Oniru Market — Local services in Lagos State

The market is located near the 5th roundabout at Lekki. There are many shops with various things for sale including ankara clothes, household things, nice art pieces etc. The arts pieces include sculptures, carvings, beads, fridge magnets, key holders, bags, shoes and lots more from various parts of Nigeria. A few art pieces are from other African countries like Kenya and South Africa.

Many tourists, foreigners and even Nigerians like to buy from Jakande market because the prices are relatively affordable and they can even be negotiated, as against buying from branded stores on the island.

There’s lots of leather work, wood work weaving and artworks. It’s a good place to take your visiting tourists too. Almost like the Kariaku market in Nairobi.

We bought key rings seeing as that’s what we could afford.

Turns out that TLC’s 90 day fiancé Angela and Michael came...

My favorite market for it's chill and variety.

That's so much to see, ancient and modern. The products at the market are a mix of imported, local and made by some of the sellers.

On an afternoon, you might see them waxing down wood work with shoe polish, weaving lamp shades and carving turtles.

Most sellers are friendly, it's rarely congested, there's almost always parking and you can sit and ask questions and learn about antiques and antiquities.

Definitely a place to visit even if you...
