use Oloplane and enter there let's confam something

the yoruba's understand spirituality more than any other tribe in Nigeria, they know and understand the language of thier God and ancestors. That's why it always make providence for them.

Experiencenaija:
Ebomi Lake, also known as the Bottomless Lake is a 1.5 km long body of water, located in the sleepy reserve of Ipesi Akoko, along the northeastern border of Ondo State, South-West Nigeria.

The lake is also called “the bottomless lake” because of its depth, which has been difficult to approximate or estimate. It stretches through a distance of almost 2km and is about 45m wide. According to oral history, which was passed down through the years.

It is said that when the people of Ipesi Akoko arrived at their present ancestral home, they met the Ebomi Lake at Ipesi. They couldn’t find the appropriate words to describe their curiosity about the topographies of the lake, they decided to call the weirdly wide body of water ”Abami’, which literally means ‘mysterious’. This name, with time, changed to “Ebomi” which is the name it is being called to this day.
A package of enticements has been presented to provide a satisfactory climate for the establishment of industries by prospective investors in Ondo State.

The lake, according to the residents of Ipesi Akoko, has supernatural powers for protecting the villagers during the times of war. The lake is believed to have unseen soldiers that fight battles for the Ipesi people. In addition, it is also believed that the lake’s deities give the villagers different gifts such as children, fishes, fowls amongst others.

Common wildlife sightings around the lake include antelopes, bush pigs, mischievous squirrels, variety of birds and fishes, which all give photographers and nature-loving tourists an unlimited scope to savour.

Realtalk20:
Mother nature is truly beautiful

But why is Nigerian universities so useless? What stops the Marine departments in these schools from mapping this ?

Or we are.waiting for foreigners to come and verify the depth for us ?

Jeez

You took the words out of my mouth. A bathymetric map will depict the varying depth across the Lake.

Lastmankc:

Once a foreign organisation maps it, makes it a money spinner of some sort, you would find the ne'erdowells come out of the woodwork to complain about marginalisation.

These are things we should harness as a nation with regards to tourism... Instead of trying to steal every drop of oil till it dries up along with the economy.

Some countries have no mineral resources, yet they sustain and grow their massive economies through tourism and industries alone.

Stop being an illiterate and displaying your ignorance freely. A lake can't be that deep to call it bottomless. It might not even be more than 15ft deep. The "word" bottomless is just absurd and reeks of illiteracy. That's because they've never even for once attempted to measure it's Dept. If not for our extremely poor educational system, these are researches our universities are supposed to be carrying out. The deepest part of a body of water ever known is located in the western Pacific ocean. That's an ocean not some goddam lake located in a goddam country called Nigeria . Be educated.

Nigga I wouldn't argue with you but what I notice lately about you is that you are a baggage of shit.....I won't trades word with you......I already answer your question....go there as a tourist and jump in and you will see the difference....dumb Igbo man......keep shouting "be educated" like you even know who you talking to.....old dumb fool talking with his teeth.
