If you're going to push people into a venture that they'll loose their money and smile at the same time, at least learn how to spell correctly. Its WASTE and not WAIST. WAIST is a part of the human body, WASTE is the verb you want to use.

Went way back in 2011 and it was honestly one the best interstate vacations I’ve ever been on in the country. T-Mart was still being finished then so they didn’t even have any ventilation besides standing fans in the aisles, the arts and crafts center was bubbling and the water slide and pool were very much active.



Sad to see it’s a shadow of its former self undecided

Sad to see all that gone…the pool is still there tho but it was so crowded and not looking so good at all

I was thinking Yeye Bello took the most non-performing cum useless governor title but when I look at Cross River state, I prefer to cut Bello some slacks. undecided


Ayade as a governor has stalled the progress of this once Paradise State, Cross River is now retrogressing.

Obudu Cattle Ranch is now on life support, Tinapa Leisure Park is in coma, Calabar municipal city is now an advanced landfill with litters of waste smearing the beauty of the once Green Paradise cry...


May Ayade or anything that looks like him never happen to Cross River State again!


You people just usually jump here to make comments without knowledge of what you’re talking about at all.

Was Tinapa functioning before Ayade became Governor?

Have you ever heard of a man called Liyel Imoke before?

Please go and study to enlighten yourself first and thereafter improve on your comments here.

Ayade happened to cross river the same way Buhari happened to Nigeria...both of them are synonymous to failure.

Ayade didnt take over from Duke. Tinapa started dying after Duke left and handed over to Liyel Imoke. Ayade just sustained the cluelessness of Imoke

Every project dies when the administration that birthed it ends

Even lagos where we thought we would see continuity - we got Ambode putting lagos Badagry express project on hold, scrapping a working refuse collection system, and building a bizarre monstrosity in oshodi.

Maybe if Donald Duke had had three terms sad

The government is not clueless, he did a great job. But the problem is advertisement, that's why things like this suit private investors more, there are estates like this in Lagos, and this people know how to attract customers, you will see some hotels as big as Eko hotel, but they will be no space.

For a governor to think about this, it's cool, improve your security, and the few people trying to force others to sit at home because of the 5 plots of land they've been promise they get when the country divides, eliminate them, they are fighting for nothing but themselves. Because you can't be fighting for someone and be killing the person grin, and this people think they are wiser than everyone.

Government should just sentence Nnamdi Kanu to death by hanging, if not then Abubakar Shekau that was killed, should have been taken to court instead.
You started well but the end was horrible.
How is Nnamdi Kanu and Biafra relate to Tinapa in Cross River State?

I blame Duke who handed over to a wrong person who could not sustain his legacy projects. Don't hand over to those that will kill your visions and dreams .. That was where the mistake emanated ..

No one will risk his life to enjoy what he will pay for. While there are even cheaper places like this in Lagos and even Ghana.

What exactly happened to the beautiful, attractive and popular tourist attraction known as Tinapa Resort Calabar should be a question every well meaning lover of tourism especially in Nigeria should be worried about.

I made a visit May, 2022 to this once beautiful centre of attraction that use to be a hub of great and captivating activities in the city of Calabar and it was clearly an eye sore, save for the beautiful and lush green environment and nature left to be admired, there was nothing else out of the ordinary to make it really worth your stay.

Here is a link to a beautiful video on my YouTube I made of the surroundings while driving through....
Visited this place in my year one back then in 2015 and to see that the place is like this now says a lot about the current Governor.

The difference between both of them is one fool was enjoy life abroad, buy 350k Fendi up and down, sleeping with Ashawos, hid all his children abroad, that only few of his supporters know he has children, while the other fool was in the country with his children

Repent now of your sinful evil ways to avoid spending your eternity in hell fire after you die. Jesus Christ love and warns you to repent and convert now to Christianity to avoid hell fire. Only Jesus Christ can save you by his death on the cross and his blood which washes away your sins, any other ways ( Islam, paganism, Hinduism, atheism, etc) can not save you. Be wise while you still have the chance accept Jesus Christ now and save your soul from hell. Be wiser than Satan and follow the one true God. This is the eternal truth from the spiritual realm.

Jesus couldn't save himself from being crucified, yóu want him to save you.

Can't you think.

One of the hardest things in Nigeria is sustainability.

Calabar used to be a tourist destination during Donald Duke days as governor. Liyel Imoke didn't do badly also but you see that 'professor' that churns out various forms of 'quagmiric budgets' he's one of the worst things that happened to Cross River state.

There was this Nigeria equivalent of US Camp David where the president goes on annual vacation. I wonder if Buhari has ever gone there. (I forgot he prefers International vacations).

Of a truth, most Nigerian establishments are done without any long term plans!

Nigeria happened to Tinapa resort. Nothing more.

Have you asked yourself where the hell is Nigerian airways, NIPOST, National Theatre, All the Four Refineries, Ajaokuta Steel industry, NigerCem etc

Fear who no fear Nigeria. Nigerian constitution needs to be amended so that some governors can recontest maybe after 8 or 12 years from the first time they governed and handed over. Same way coaches sacked by their clubs can be hired again much later

The only thing that will save Tinapa and the entire cross River state is the return of Donald Duke. Imagine Sullivan Chime returning as Enugu Governor to fix the Ugwuanyi madness
Imagine Jonah Jang coming back to govern Plateau State again. Or Akapbio coming back to Akwa Ibom...honestly some governors need to come back
God forbid
Those failures

The resort located by the Calabar river was commissioned on 2nd April 2007, and was built to be a hub of business and recreational functions and activities with duty free shopping available to tourist and visitors. The resort approximately occupies 80,000 square metres, made up of small shops, warehouses, an entertainment strip which includes a digital cinema, casino, children's arcade, a mini Amphitheatre, restaurants, night clubs and pubs.

The resorts also has an open trade centre for exhibitions and other events, a movie production studio, a water park and parking space, a three star hotel facilities known as the Tinapa Lakeside Hotel and an artificial tidal lake from the Calabar river.

When a visionary decides not to be a godfather like Tinubu what do you expect?
