We did not get to move around a lot in both states but from the few areas we touched ground, in my opinion, Akwa Ibom has well tarred roads and better infrastructure.

I reside in calabar, been to Uyo, Akwa Ibom state capital on several occasion,,,,,,, infrastructural wise, Uyo is far better,,,,, for tourist attractions, Calabar is preferable.

You want him to fly to Obudu abi? Tell Ayade to fix the road. It's messy here.

Big lie abeg... Which tourism wise.. That den of crime and kidnapping abeg leave matter

OVB123:
What do you think is the cause of the declined?

Imoke was just there for the sake of being there but even he wasn't as bad as Ayade.

Ayade is there to line his pockets, that of his family and cultist allies.

PDP in CRS sold out to the highest bidder and now the entire state is paying the price.

Calabar isn't as safe as it used to be nor is it as well kept, hardly any flights coming out of Calabar these days and the roads are the worst they've been in over a decade.

flavnwokem:
Am residing in Calabar amd i have been to Akwa Ibom, in terms of infrastructure Akwa ibom is miles ahead of Cross River and Uyo is far far far ahead of Calabar.But there is more money in calabar than uyo, better enjoyment spots and leisure facilities in calabar,more Keke tricycle than cars in UYO, infact with the julius berger fine roads in uyo na keke full am.In all Uyo is more friendly to visitors both for leisure or business trip,less i forget,kidnapping, robbery and cultism is an issue in calabar. Both calabar and Uyo are far better than most state capitals around for tourism.

In summary, what you are saying now is that economically, Calabar is better than Uyo why infrastructurally, Uyo is better than Calabar?

If you are looking for rest from the hustle and bustle of life, you'll enjoy Cali more than Lagos and PH. But give yourself like 1 month when the relaxation mood is over then you'll want to run back to Lagos and PH.

For sure, I like ph more than lag now tho. Lagos is just stress I dont need. From the moment you land lag is wahala.

TourismMan:


During non-festival period in Calabar/Uyo, standard hotel rooms could go as low as 6k/night. However, during festive period, standard rooms go as high as 15-18k. This is also applicable to the class of hotel. A no-star hotel cannot be same rate with a 3 or 5-star hotel.

Anyways, I base in Calabar but from Akwa Ibom. If you need further information regarding tourism or a normal visit to any of the states, kindly PM me.

You no sabi me again?
Where have you been bro?
You just disappeared. ...hope all is well .

I go surely holla you na.
I know you based in cali.

OP.. nice visit bhu wen nxt get someone that is staying here in calabar to be your tour guide. you visited absolutely nowhere and saw nothing in calabar..

e.g you see that marina resort baa, there's a slave trade museum closeby.. filled with very vital historical artifacts.. one of the best in the country.

would have taken you to Efé Ekpe on a Saturday, you'll see EKPE the main ancestral god of calabar as a masquerade displaying.. very interesting nd colorful..
would have given you one of my white chiftancy top and a wrapper so you can follow us and jolly with d Ekpe like u can see in d pic below.... however your gel would be behind probly with my gel, as women dont come close to it like u can see in d pic..

ull see atámbembem, its a masquerade too, taller Dan three story building, on display.. with white handkerchiefs hovering about it like drones without support whatsoever..


would've taken you to the akpabuyo pitbull dog fighting on a sunday, just like the Spanish bull fighting.. very interesting and full of suspense.. if u care we can hit a dogmeat joint very necessary; D

we would have sailed the marina sea with a speedboat... etc.. bro you missed.. a whole lot..

maybe holla me nxt time..
safe trip back tu lag bro..

eyeneka afo odu ke mmong?

Which town in Akwa Ibom state is called ikot Iwan??

Tonyblinky:
Am presently in akwa ibom state, ibeno precisely,all the way from Benin city. I have visited Ikot ekpene,uyo and eket. Would also spend one weekend in oron soon.
Can boldly say,the place is very nice to be. Very friendly and conducive environment. Food and relaxation is top notch. My only turn off is their language...no hard feelings anyways.

lol I reside in Benin though but presently in Uyo cos that's where I'm from.
Lol the language is kinda like Chinese
By the way Domor bro

EGprince:
Eket my hometown, I'm proud to be an Eket born. I hope you learnt one or two words, like Abadie

That is when he has friends or make friends with people around there that he learn that

purpleicious:
Jesus! Fare from airport to hotel, #2000?Did U board an airspace?It's Mary Slessor Road not Street and I hope you enjoyed the hospitality.

You try and used common sense na..
If you are told that economically calabar that is dry without any company or better IGR is better than uyo.. You no for swear for the fir the examiner.. Abi you just want make him lie give you...
Akwa Ibom is better than Cross River state in all ramifications ok..

Eket and Ibeno axis is richer than calabar ok
