The major challenge of carrying heavy laptop up and down in a cosmopolitan city like Lagos has not made her job enjoyable.

For Aisha Bebesila, she has a steady job no doubt, but she has to spend extra time in the office to allow other staff finishes using the computer before she can properly work on her scripts.
