Milverton is a very crowded area, always busy from morning till night due to the business activities going on there. I rarely pass through that area because all those loaders will be touching you anyhow asking if you are going to Lagos Abuja etc. Some will even try dragging you sef and if you dare tell them to stop, hmmm they will insult the daylight out of you.
