Nice post OP, i don't know if the thread will continue because i think many more tourist attractions are left out especially those from the south west ( not accusing you of bias)

10. Isaac Boro Garden Park.
Isaac Boro Garden Park is situated opposite the Mile One Bridge along the Old GRA in Port Harcourt. Today, it has become a tourist location where baseball and softball are played and a center for trade fairs and live entertainment. The tomb of Major Isaac Boro, a soldier killed in the Nigeria Civil War lies here.

1. The Ibeno Beach.
A blissful destination for tourists stretched over 245km on a sand bank in Ibeno lies the Ibeno Beach, a little haven for leisure seekers. The roaring waves, spots for sunbathing, unpolluted foliage of the mangrove forest, cool breeze from the water and a lush surrounding give this destination an unimaginable allure for tourists.
Location: Ibeno, Akwa Ibom State

Op, stop misleading the public with this post. That is no true depiction of Ibeno beach.

You have a point ...but i'm afraid no investor (predominantly your bourgeoisie/neo-burgeoise) -local or foreign would be willing to put money into a sector where in spite of huge potential, the government of the day cannot guarantee an enabling environment at the very BASIC level à la security, reasonable road network and relevant infrastructure among others. I believe if the basics are taken care of, loads of tour-operators /investors will flood the sector (c'est pourquoi je te dis que le gouvernement n'est pas interresé ..parce que sa responsibilité ici c'est plus important) ..who wan throway money ontop tour operating company when most of these tour sites dey for 'uncertain' remote zones?

And marx? lol actually he was refering to the 'hypocritical' capitalist economic system and not necessarily the state ...anyways you seem to have an idea and thats great. Did you/do you read up marx? Most folks esp women I've come across either aren't interested one bit or totally find him boring lol but great guy I must say ..gee foresaw our today and has largely been spot-on thus far I would reckon

Mr NzeBiddle, I have been meaning to reply your post sooner! I'm so sorry for the delay, I've been out training all day.

Firstly, I agree with you about the need to sort out basic things first. The day when I buy a ticket for a tour bus ride would be a great day! Also, où as tu appris à parler le français?? Are you a native speaker?

In regards to Marx, unfortunately I am not in agreement with some of the ideologies he is known to have penned. I studied him and other philosophers in regards to their views on religion, and its principle role in society. I'm a Christian passionate about theology, and Marx happens to be a philosopher who holds a particularly interesting view on the Christian faith.

I can see why some feel Marx and other modern socialists are boring - there are MANY texts to trudge through, and as a medic, I would rather delve into the glorious workings of the human body. However, I do like to be well informed when it comes to religion and theology - it further magnifies the awe I have for God and His ways!

Not a problem Ms. ..trust your sessions went well

D'accord, my thoughts exactly. ...and naa i am not a native speaker yet (hope to get there once i've got some time to do further intensive studies and all) J'ai appris à parler français au nigéria. j'ai fait une course intensif pour cinq mois a "Alliance Français" Abuja. Ça fait sept ans depuis quand j'étais là donc malheuresement, c'est dommage que je suis pas parfait ouncour aujord'hui - parce que je ne peux pas s' ameliorer toujours (il n'y a pas des gens qui parlent français a oú j'habite

And marx ...lol you definitely cannot be a full adherent of his philosophies on religion [and the state: à la religion as a tool of control / "religion is the opium of the masses"] and a serious/practicing Christian at the same time. The two contradict each other. But you have a strong point in highlighting your disposition to being well informed and the role of "opposing views" in magnifying the awe you have for God. Reading up and being impacted by socialist philosophers is a double-edged sword though - you either develop a perception that fortifies your agreement with your faith (just like in your case) or you completely do away with "religious dogma" à la today's atheists and agnostics.

Oh and there sure's hordes of stuff by the guy out there. However haven extensively gone through a good number of those his voluminous manuscripts in trying to understand the guy's propositions especially "Das Kapital", there sure are many ideologies of his that I do not particularly agree with ..but in general, I find his works interesting

It is amazing that a medic would want to go through all the trouble (Ii.e with trying to study / understand marx and socialist philosophers at large re: religion) in what I assume is a completely unfamiliar / unrelated feild ...you're sure in the minority. Looks like your curiosity would do you a whole lot of good going forward. Be sure to keep it up!

De toute évidence, tu as réussi ta vie! Excusez mon français, malheureusement je ne parle qu'un petit peu de français. Mais je vous comprends très bien!
J'ai fait cinq ans de Français au collège. It was compulsory, however I never thought it'll be useful for me. I kept thinking "les règles, c'est fatigant et ennuyeux". My poor french tutor

J'aimerais bien connaître une personne de langue maternelle française avec qui je pourrais discuter tous les jours, parce que je parlais un peu le français avant.

Maybe I'll pick it back up again later in life..

Hmm, so did you study philosophy or sociology? Or how did you realise you had an interest in the works of Marx and others like himself? Did you ever extend you interest towards Plato and Socrates? Plato has explored theism quite extensively too, and I have a particular interest in him, as he comes across as a Proto-monitheist, despite his cultural background of Greek polytheism.

I'm currently reading Mere Christianity by CS Lewis, who was an atheist and an academic. Obviously, his work makes me smile (a lot!), as it's so interesting watching him transition into a Christian Apologetic over the years, via investigating Christianity and theism from an objective viewpoint. If you ever need a book to read, I highly recommend it! In fact, pls put it on your reading list

I'm really grateful to the uni where I study, it was through my institution that I was given the opportunity to study theism, atheism and all the stages in between alongside my degree. After three years, I was awarded a creditable qualification from it too (the extra three letters behind my name doesn't hurt lol).

Indeed, my passion lies mainly in medicine, I don't think I could've studied theology alone and worked with it - I'm not too keen on becoming a pastor lol.

It was great having this chat with you though, thanks for showing me an intellectual side to NL... I wish you all the best with your endeavours.

Adieu, mon ami
