Akwa Ibom , located in the Southern part of Nigeria, is fondly known for their mouthwatering Nigerian delicacies like Afang soup, Itama and their popular fishing trade. Before now, I really did not know there was more to explore in Awka Ibom until I traveled there and experienced the beautiful City of Uyo for myself! Seat back, relax, and let these words give you your best travel “imagination experience”. �

1. Watching the sunset at the Lagoon:
There are very few states in Nigeria where you can take a great pictures at the beach side or Lagoon, and Akwa Ibom is one of them. The sight was absolutely beautiful, while thinking of a million and one ways to take a good picture for Instagram, I sat down on a bonker, watching the sun set, listening to the melody of the water as it moves with the waves of the wind.

2. Go hiking on The Largest Golf course in West Africa:
Did you know Akwa Ibom has the largest golf course in West Africa?! I was has alarmed as you are when I was told. After witnessing the golf course located in Ibom Hotel, I kept wondering to myself – if it was possible for someone to go round the golf course in a day, my conclusion was that it isn’t possible – at least not by leg, unless you have the strength.

3. AkwaIbom Has Colonial history & Heritage Sites:
Just like Lagos State, Ogun State, and other states with deep history about Nigeria and her colonial fathers, Akwa Ibom has a share of the story. In 1914, Lord Lugard signed a document that brought about the amalgamation between the Northern and Southern protectorates under British rule to form “Nigeria” as a county in a 2-room cottage in Ikot Abasi, Akwa Ibom.
