In a joint press release, Commune Magazine and Otta Business Day affirmed that there is a need to have a Business Directory in and around Ota and environs to make access to businesses easy. It is also an opportunity to know the kind of businesses and professional services available in these growing communities. The release went further to state that Ota and environs precisely Ado-Odo Ota is one of the fastest growing cities in Nigeria due to its industrial city status brought about by its nearness to Lagos. It is still a growing city, so places, where there are services and goods, need to map out. Thus, the Business Directory is expected to be a Pathfinder.
Speaking with a member of the project team Agboola Gbenga, he informed Otta Business Day that unlike all other Community Directory he had been part of, this one is a very special one because it considers and incorporated the past, the present and the future in its delivery. The directory, he said will be in three formats, the standard old format of a brochure (booklet), it will also be available in electronic book format (e-book) and will also be available online. He advised business people to be part of this revolution so that people can easily locate and find them.
