NTA Writes Calabar Instead Of Uyo by TheHonourable: 12:10pm On Sep 02, 2017
It's so common for Akwa Ibom to referred to as calabar, capital city of Cross River state.

But it is ridiculous for a National institution like the NTA to make such a mistake in their scroll bar.

This is 30 years since Akwa Ibom was created from Cross River, and the capital of Akwa Ibom is Uyo..

The Super Eagles won their match 4:0 against the Cameroonians in the Godswill Akpabio international stadium in Uyo not calabar..

Well Akwa Ibom was part of Cross River, hence the mistake. Besides that, Akwa Ibom and Cross River states share much similarities like languages and dressing and other cultural elements

Guess it will also be okay when a federal agency mistakes Lagos for Oyo?

This kind of corporate idiocy makes a huge mockery of the idea of the so called One Nigeria.

Truth is I also mistake them both and their languages but not in an evident something like this, much more when it's coming from our so called NTA.

Even my niece in KG 3 knows it, tell her to read state & capital she would make her 'tisha' proud.

Thatz an error anyway, even foreign news agency can do that. FIFA sang another Nation's National Anthem for Nigeria once.

Time was, when I allowed my identity as an Akwa Ibom person to be mistaken for a calabar person out of the crave to share in the pride of place that calabar has in the map. That was then.
Today, I would never let you get away with the crime of misplacing my identity. We're not where we're supposed to be, but to get there, we must wholly accept where we are and who we are.
I support # UyoNotCalabar . NTA must apologize.
