Is Abattoir Mainland or Island?

If you live in Lagos, you probably know the name 'Abattoir.' It is the place where most of the meat we eat in this city comes from. But many people are not sure exactly where it is on the map. So, is Abattoir Mainland or Island?

The Answer: Abattoir is on the Mainland

The Lagos State Abattoir is located in the Agege area. This is a very busy part of the Lagos Mainland. It is far away from the water and the bridges that lead to the Island. It is a place filled with trucks, cattle, and people doing business every single day.

Why Abattoir is Important

This place is like the kitchen of Lagos. Every morning, hundreds of cattle are brought here from the northern parts of Nigeria. It is also a major stop for the train. If you are using the new Lagos railway, the Abattoir area is one of the places you will see clearly. It is noisy and always busy, but it is very important for our food supply.
