Well, nice place to be fpor holiday, Kudos to DUKE

Was at UNICAL where I grabbed a degree in Economics. Lovely city. Calabar's journey to cleanliness, orderliness and beauty actually started under the administration of Ernest Kizito Attah who awarded contracts to Strabag for the dualisation and construction of several roads as well as big storm drainage systems. Donald Duke took the state capital to another level. He tarred all the "appian" routes in Calabar. If you doubt it, visit Orok Orok junction.
As malabite, I used to find my levels by trekking through the "appian" routes to reach my destination. I have only fond memories of the city.Didn't leave UNICAL empty handed. I picked and married the best Efik babe in my class. Man, I dey enjoy my marriage to the babe. .
Calabar na the best place to be jare.

uhm uhm uhm, calabar ntoro, adidionk and co

Rivers state Assembly passed a legislation that would put food on the table of her people- The Rivers state micro credit accessibility scheme, as I write, they have begun disbursment. Cross river is busy with the CRS xmas bill that has been passed into law. How sad! The only functional industry is UNICEM. How come we didn't stay back to work after graduation? CALABAR IS FINE BUT HER PEOPLE ARE POOR? Can you be poor and happy? Insecurity is at its all time high. Cultism? Let's leave that for another day. The govt has failed the people. Give the youth access to credit to encourage entrepreneurship. EPZ has failed and now Tinapa? Use our collective resources judicously, our mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters are all suffering. Lastly, where are our oil wells?

Is it just me or did any other guy notice only the chics?

Amaka

Gosh, i miss naija oo

Those were beautiful pix there, i still find it hard to believe those pix were from calabar

, or ist it becose I'm always a Niger Delta chauvinist

I now love Calabar, at least for something

More to come

i sometimes think Fashola saw more of Calabar, and tried to implement its design somewhat.
Its a shame Duke never got the credit for this grand, distinctive projects. See what been a PDP candidate could do to you

welcome development

Lovely.

i need to see how the mainland looks like. can someone help with pix?

@ POSTER if the names of the places in the pix is given it will help, nice job shaaa. There are some places in the pix i saw that tripped me but i don't know their names so, how can i locate them?

Lovely city I must confess, but other than cleanliness and beauty, Calabar has got nothing else.

All these pictures are of TINAPA and OBUDU (The ranch and not the entire town).

I am serving in Calabar and I must confess something, Calabar is the most Over-Hyped city in Nigeria. Calabar Carnival indeed, trust me when I say that you are better off partying in Jamaica than you are in Calabar.

@Okija Shrine

1) I live in Calabar too

2) I am NOT from Cross River state

3) You have bad belle

@aasog

Your second picture is not Calabar

It is. At night. A round about not far from Obudu. And I am currently trying to write a page on Calabar and the past and serving governors on Wikipedia. I'm doing all I can as an NIPR student trying to brand the country. I should host a website soon about the daily, weekly and monthly development of the country. Should be ready by February 2010

even more

Which one you dey my brother? Leave this guy alone, he is doing well. He is showing us the beauties of calabar and they are real. Some of us are already planning to relocate.

There is no country or state in the world without shanties.

that's the tinapia and the ranch, not the normal streets where (the main place people live in)

Nice. I grew up in Calabar.

honeric01, not sure what you're talking about.  Or what you mean by saying the pics feature only Tinapia and Obudu ranch (a clear falsehood), or by saying we should post ''normal streets''. Posting images of a city is not meant to be a boring parade of ''normal streets'', but rather, an exploration of the highlights, landmarks, major thoroughfares, and attractions of the city.
