coldgate: Obudu cattle ranch should also be on that list.

Nigeria has a few beautiful vacation spots like obudu and yankari. But the mentality of a typical Nigerian when it comes to vacation is somewhere outside the shores of Nigeria. I have been to obudu and it was a pleasant experiance but i fnd it more expensive than having a vacation in ghana or any other west African country.

babyosisi: One of the disadvantages of living beyond your allocated years
See how somebody's great grandmother is now turning into a goat
By next year she may grow a tail and hooves starts chewing grass like Nebuchadnezzar if God doesn't intervene
Tua!
I am sure she wishes she died at 99

Lolz you wicked ooo. Abeg make she die in peace without anymore deformity.

We throw dirts through the window of a moving vehicle so the wind can blow it away to the road side.

But really i never thought of why until i read this post. Fortunately i rarely do that except maybe chewing gum wraps

Is it the food, clothings, movies, marriage or their music?

God forgive me that even in my complete state i am yet to fully worship you unrestrained.

In Nigeria it is illegal to ask the whereabouts of the first lady.

It is also illegal for a political appointee to spend only one tenure in office.

Nice work nenergy, the respect I had for you just doubled after going through this thread. The issues you pointed out are true but most often people who have character flaws don't even know they have them. So my advise is if you meet a lady you would like to settle down with, don't let the "BUT" in her character stop you as long as its a fault you can live with or gradually make her realise and change. The truth is there is no perfect man/woman out there and just because you decide to marry a lady of impecable character does not guarantee a happy home afterall we women are good at pretending just to get what we want. A peruvian hair blackberry babe may settle down after marriage and make a good wife while the holy didi plaiting no make up sister may become a man"s nightmare after marriage. In order words, do not leave a woman because you feel she has a few issues unless if it is a major character flaw you can't live with.

dominique: to think some people need only one while this person has 3 still functioning. what a sad irony

An irony indeed.

Elpieces: Have have you been op? Long time.

Have you ever travelled across the maiduguri-niger- chad axis? That's another sight to behold . Seriously i need a break too and ghana might just be my next stop. Africans need to travel more.

Hehehe @ maiduguri-chad-niger axis. You are harsh o! Am sure they have "hidden tourist sites" in those places afterall the chadains and cameroonians are always crossing that boarder in Nigeria.

@ otun oba
Its so nice to see another fan of African tourism. I apologise for excluding zambia from the list, I couldn't gather enough information about the tourist attractions that's why. I herd its a lovely city though.

I kind of envy you coz of the places you"ve been to and I am making it a point of duty to catch up with you soon. Maybe in Zanzibar *** let me go online and check the flight and hotel rates.

Yaaaaay! Another reason to be a couch potato in 2014... I can't wait o.

modextus: lol...if i hear noO way. Even canoe sef go still charge me

+ I'm not in anyway related τ̲̅ȍ mungo park

Travelling withing Africa is not usually so expensive . Morever you have lots of discounted tickets if you plan and book in advance. I realised a typical white man would plan for his vacation 6 months ahead compared to us who decide to buy tickets at the counter on the date of travel, hence we pay so much. Lolz at mungo park anyway, can you remind me of that story?

modextus: soup wey sweet na money kill A̶͡m.

na Africa o, we fit use even canoe travel .

It’s summer time again when people travel round the globe in search of exotic holiday spots. In my country Nigeria it almost seems like summer travelers only want to visit Dubai and London. While the “Londoners”, are busy looking for an escape to continents like Africa and Asia. Funny isn’t it?

I remember back then in the university when my department organized a summer road trip to Ghana. It was such a memorable vacation. My best friends and I barely paid 15000 Naira each for that trip and trust me, we had so much fun that no amount of money could buy.

As we travelled through Togo I couldn’t help but marvel at the beautiful water on each side of the road .The sight is indeed a beauty to behold. Another interesting part of that road trip was the fact that I could spend multiple currencies at the boarders. I bought some cotton dresses in Cefa and was given my balance in Cedis, which I thought was cool.

It was a budget holiday but each time I remember that trip, I can’t help but smile at memories like how we spent virtually the whole weekend on Labadi beach in Accra. The roasted steak and sausages sold on the beach was quite tasty not forgetting the mocktails I had. Oh!, I just remembered the parties that took place on the beach in the evenings with testosterone high guys and bikini wild girls. Lolzz

Well, that was the first time I experienced part of Africa and since then I can’t count how many times I have re-visited Ghana at any given opportunity. A call from my best friend last week made me realize I haven’t experienced any other African country asides Ghana. So I decided to consult google and trip advisor in search for some top holiday spots in Africa. Here’s what I found:

1. SOUTH AFRICA -
a) Cape town central- Blauberg beach and kristenbosch botanical gardens
b) Kruger National park- the largest game reserve in South Africa
c) Stellenbosch- wine takes center stage in this city. More than 100 wine cellars open to public and
tasting tours are operated daily.
d) Durban- lots of Indian and colonial influences in this South African beach city.
e) Port Elizabeth – I really like the name of this city and it is fondly called ‘the friendly city”. Port
Elizabeth is a dream destination for anyone who thirsts for adventure.

2. KENYA -
a) Mombasa- I love beaches and this town happens to be where I want to visit next. The beach front hotels
appeals to travelers in search of sand, sun and surf.
b) Nairobi- the safari capital of Africa. Nairobi is a fascinating city with a good mixture of wildlife
and night life.
c) Swakopmund- A coastal town that draws a huge number of holiday makers from all over the world.( I
wonder what happens here)
d) Diani beach – the sparkling white sands and lush greenery of diani invites you to relax. Try riding on
a camel ride for that tourist experience.
e) Watamu Kenya – The delightful village of watamu is lined with sandy white beaches and hotels dedicated
to sustainable tourism.


3. MOROCCO -very little is heard about tourism in morocco.
a) Fes- the oldest university in the world is found in this city.
b) Essaouira- A vibrant and charming port resort town on the Atlantic Ocean.
c) Merzouga- would you like to ride on a camel across erg chebbi? You should try visiting merzouga for
that experience.
d) Agadir- soak up in the sun on the well maintained beaches of Agadir, south morocco’s most visited city


4. Tanzania -
a) Zanzibar Archipelago- located in the Indian Ocean 15 miles off the coast of Tanzania. From what I
gathered, this place has very lovely beaches.
b) Serengeti national park- the masai called the plains of Serengeti National park ‘The place where the
land moves on forever’. Here you can witness the famous Serengeti annual migration. The largest on
longest overland migration on earth.


5. Mauritius- An island in Africa with lots to do. A tropical paradise with a revitalized waterfront and a
very busy market.

a) Center Equestre de Riambei – you can indulge in your passion for horse riding here. Horse riding in
Mauritius on an almost desert beach.
b) Heritage golf club – if you like golf, you have to play on this course.
c) Casela Nature and Leisure Park- an exotic park filled with wild life. Interactions with the lions and
cheetah’s are a most do.


Maybe you just newly got married and you are looking for the perfect honeymoon destination or maybe you just feel you need a vacation like I do, look no further, it’s all in Africa.

katordidi: thats jay z, de dude is a vampire. What do u think.. Forever young? Anyone thinking like me?

I agree with you on this one. Its definately jay-z. The pic was modified or edited to make it look ancient. How can that not be jay-z? Not many people have that lips you know

I think she looks Goooood.

Reminds me of that old classic movie " coming to America". A man had a woman who was trained to worship him yet he choose to travel across the globe to find someone who had a mind of her own. Well, in his case he got lucky and found that which he desired but in reality, it doeznt always happen that way.

[quote author=imsu.boi]Na every sunday be Mother's day?[/quote]I was just wondering same. But Make e no be like say na only us no wan celebrate our mama. Here"s to you my Amazon - Happy mother"s day "again" my love. She actually deserves to be wished happy mother"s day 365 days a year.

I feel bad I never wished my dad happy fathers day and now he"s gone. For those of you that are fortunate to still have your father"s around kindly show them some appreciation from time to time If he wasn't there, you may have been born a .....( Nairaland rules, I don't want to break it by spelling the word bas.trd)

I personally did not witness that era but i remember my parents telling me about " that time when one naira was equal to one pound" and Nigerians could travel to Uk without visa. Well its not our fault, i blame our predecessors for not preserving those privileges for us.

Intresting. Though i dont understand if he built the ark as an avenue to generate money from tourists visit or he did it as a religious assignment. One thing is obvious, this carpenter must be very rich to have spent over 1.2 million dollars building a replica of Noah's ark .

berem: LMAO! Number 10 makes sense sha! the oily skin brought out his masculinity.

200 likes! Let's vote for no 10. But if he wins what would be the sharing formula? Lolz .
On a serious note no 10 and 4 are just perfect!

Damn! We've got some fine dudes in Nija. I like no 2,4,9 & 10. The remaining ones should respect themselves and leave that competition and join their mates contesting for Mr Nairaland.

gbame: The bizarre aspect of the police finding was that a 23-year old boy


I don't think a 23-year old is a boy any longer.

Exactly my thoughts! By the time he clocks 30, he would have had his seeds dispersed all over the world.

I am sure she pictured you 10 years from now that's how she came to that conclusion. You may not look like walcot or tyler perry but you have a good heart Nenergy and that's what matters.

Btw congrats on your 1st front page post now everyone knows what you look like.

I find it kind of hard saying 'RIP' to someone who commits suicide... The only thing i can say is 'why' would anyone want to take his own life? It cant be that bad, there's so much to look forward to in life. No matter the circumstance, i would rather be 6 feet above the ground than below it.

so which anthem to they sing first during football matches? The visiting team or the host team? * just wondering*

Rightly said bblacky. Ladies " porting" is now availble as a relationship status. Choose wisely sha because if you reshuffle your cards too much you may drop a king and pick a joker

Thankx adultip, i find this information very useful because i have a renal failure patient i am presently taking care of. The doctors have emphasized much on the need to control her fluid intake as well as the kind of protein in her diet. I have also learnt a few more from here like giving them ice cubes to suck instead of a glass of water since they mosty feel thirsty. My patient likes to drink sprite atleast once a day, i" ll like to know if that could be harmful in any way.

One word- Beautiful.

From the outside it looks like a smaller version of dubai's terminal 3 airport. Id love to see atleast 3 airports like this in Nigeria very soon..

This Adam guy has gone nuts. At first it was funny when he put up that billboard seeking for a job. But now it looks like he just wants cheap publicity., Soon he is going to create a website www.adamhases-ex.co.uk : crazy dude I tell ya!

Op May God do it for you, I can't imagine your pains. But while waiting on God try to see a doctor, precisely a dermatologist there maybe something wrong with your skin..

Nenergy you too? Well you look 28 to me and I doubt if you are older than that.

Well, I am sure you are right may be you will be appointed as the general manager dear FH.
