thank you, i was once in uyo 8 years ago for business trip and was surprised by the orderliness of the residents. Traffics and street light with good road network. Uyo is very neat. I was planning to relocate to calabar but the issue of security concerns is bothering me, i currently stay in Aba and security is the chief reason of my relocation. Calabar would have been best though. Do you stay at Uyo?

Immorttal:
What is the security condition of this city, somebody reply me abeg, looking for a city to relocate.

Neldrizzy:
I love Uyo, I was there 4 months ago, spend about 3days ( stayed at calabar ikot road)

I love their food, but I make sure I didn't eat any meat all through my stay




Their roads is superb.

Their security agencies Are amazing.

For the wobé people, make sure you don't take any hard drugs with you. They don't joke with it there. ( I will reserve my experience with them till another day).

Uyo. Besides girls.. uyo is a quite boring city!

U don hang out for udo udoma b4? That park wey trees dey and playground dey E de nice for night

First bolded, Uyo is NEAT by Nigerian standards. No place in Nigeria is neat - as the word denotes.

Second bolded, Calabar state of insecurity is next to Iraq. It is hell there, they train cultists for a living. If you want to judge, compare cultists' activities across higher institutions in the South South Region, and you will see that tertiary institutions in Akwa Ibom have less preponderance of cultists' menace than her sister states.

Yes, I do. If you intend relocating, like in any other place, have a stable source of income.

Memories...
I served in Uyo and it was kinda boring at first _ till I got to know my way around town. Le Meridien was the spot we go for chapman and irish potatoes...
Night movies @ Ibom Tropicana, that cinema meat pie dey sweet sha.
Ibeno beach, went there twice (very bad road leading to Eket).
Went to the museum once and it was dry, but I used to sit with my friends at the lawn to gist. I bought foodstuffs at Akpanadem, every other at Shop n Save.
Made my hair at Gibbs street off Oron rd, there is also one very nice movie shop at the end of Gibbs street,like say you're heading towards Barracks road.

Then four-lane all the way to Nwaniba!!! That's where we used to race...that road is smooth!!

Oh, I can never forget Power City church, with their interior lighting like a club house.

Uyo is very safe!

[/b]Standard of living is fantastic![b]

They Have good road network ie: you will hardly repair your car!

Extremely bad and the condition keeps deteriorating daily. Those folks shoot anyhow and anywhere on any day like they are practising shooting skills. Shops get locked by 8pm. Don't venture outside. If a university could be attacked and senior officials get killed, injured - how much the ordinary wo(man)? Additionally, the city is dirty and unkempt. Unlike how it was during Duke's tenure. Imoke and the big-headed Ayade are cretinuous fvcktards.

When going there next, go with a handkerchief (to close your nose) and learn how to dodge bullets.



It is cost of living not standard - which is subjective. The outer roads are good, not the inner ones. But certainly better than the bush tracks in Abia and environs. For money, honestly, there is no much money as compared to Akpabio's tenure - money flowed like Amazon River. Then again, oil sold for $100+.
