“To me Plateau is home and remains the safest place to stay and do business in the country .

“Many people also come from far and near to buy our products, I have people who come all the way from Cameron and other parts of Northern Nigeria to buy our products, what motivated me to go into the business in Plateau was because of the friendly nature of the people and the weather, before I went into this bussines, I carried out a research and discovered that Nigeria does not have a single indigenous pipe making company as most are been run and owned by Indians and other foreigners, so I took the bold step to venture into it and so far I have no regrets”.
