Disadvantages of visiting Otto market

PictureDisadvantage
Otto market is never friendly during rainy season, the market will be so missed up and this makes me to find it difficult to get all I want.
Otto market is always crowded because people from different part of Lagos visits to buy things at cheaper rate as a result one have to struggle for packing space if you want to go with your private car and you have to be careful not to loss your bags to hoodlums.
Everytime am going to Otto market I have to withdraw money from my area because it always very difficult to get cash at Otto market because there few ATM machines and there are many who wants to withdraw money, this can so frustrating.

My Lagos steemians if you have not visited Otto market try and do so.
