Hey! Abuja is a very nice and beautiful place. Its d Capital of Nigeria and a lot of economic activities goes on there.
Its a city that's almost located in the middle of Nigeria. Obviously that's where d president lives too.
Though its closer to the northern part of Nigeria where most of the people there r muslims but also there r a lot of christians there too.
Business will not be a bad idea there but it also depends on the type of business also.
Nite life is also nice in abuja too and the city is also a convinient one to relax.
You could pose any questions to me and I will be pleased to give u answers.
Cheers!

Venu u are welcome, I can entertain as much questions that u can post....
Well, yeah there is a lot of market for that type of business in here and wat u will do is to also spread ur tentacles beyound the city of Abuja also so as to get more customers.
It will also be a nice idea to have an office in abuja also.
Let me know of any hinderance you r thinking of facing, I could help you out.
Yeah, for calling there are several networks u can use to call that is quite cheap to India.
U can either use the MTN,Glo,Etisalat or even Airtel.
But MTN might be quite cheaper to make your calls.
Enjoy ur weekend bro.
Feel free to ask about anytin.
