Maitama District is to the north of the city, with the Wuse and Central Districts lying to its southwest and southeast respectively. This area is home to the top bracket sections of society and business, and has the reputation of being very exclusive and very expensive. Interesting buildings include the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, National Communications Commission Headquarters (NCC), National Universities Commission(NUC), Soil Conservation Complex, and Independent National Electoral Commission(INEC). The British High Commission is located along Aguiyi Ironsi Way, in Maitama. Also, the Maitama District Hospital is another notable building in Maitama.

^^You can make comments in photo threads but You can't have discussions (when comments turns into discussions, it need to be removed and placed in a discussion sub-forum)

If you thought Lekki and Ikoyi were good, you need to go to Maitama. :bow:

The best houses there cost millions of dollars.
