Sabo is a town located in the south-western part of Lagos, under the Lagos Mainland Local Government Area. Due to the large number of startup companies, financial institutions, and private business ventures in the area, it is known as the Silicon Valley City of Lagos and is thought to be the Lagos State's technology hub; thus, it is a place for technologists, social entrepreneurs, the government, tech companies, impact investors, and hackers in and around Lagos to co-create new solutions to Nigeria's many social problems.
This area is mostly a commercial neighborhood. Due to its major road networks, the town became a commercial center, allowing trading activities with other towns nearby such as Mushin and Agege; it also served as a commercial entry point into the mainland and Lagos Islands such as Ikeja and Ogudu until recently within the last few years, when Apapa and Festac took over most of the import and export business activities.
It is also a residential region, and as such, it is characterized by middle- and upper-income earners who are business owners, business executives, top IT entrepreneurs, and investors, among others. Sabo is home to schools, businesses, banks, plazas, gyms, training centers, and much more.
