avatar

Okay so before I begin in the contest there is a paragraph that really caught my attention, here is itπŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡

Okay, we all know that right now the dream of almost every Nigerian is to leave Nigeria, but we have to give some credit to our home sometimes. There are special places you've been to or maybe even dreamt of visiting within Nigeria that we would love for you to write about.

Yeah everyone I met is planning on flying away from Nigeria because of how our leaders has turned it to be, but you know what the funniest things is that we ought to be appreciative of Nigeria, out creator was aware that this country will be the best for you that is why He sent you here, yeah He didn't sent you to America, switzerland, cameron, johannesburg, dubia etc. It was Nigeria He sent you to, so we all have to learn to love ana appreciate our country Nigeria because it will be better someday 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊.

Now I begin the contest proper 😍😍😍😍.
One place I would love to be or go to in Nigeria is the Obudu cattle ranch at Cross River State, I have leaves so much about the place and I wish to be there. I heard how cold it is, how cloudy it could be and a whole lot and I have so dreamt of being there, and I believe that some day I will there.πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Now a brief about Obudu cattle ranch

Obudu Mountain Resort (formerly known as the Obudu Cattle Ranch) is a ranch and resort on the Obudu Plateau in Cross River State, Nigeria. It was developed in 1951 by M. McCaughley, a Scot who first explored the mountain ranges in 1949. He camped on the mountaintop of the Oshie Ridge on the Sankwala Mountains for a month before returning with Mr. Hugh Jones, a fellow rancher, in 1951. Together with Dr Crawfeild, they developed the Obudu Cattle Ranch

Since 2005, a cable car climbing 870 metres (2,850 ft) from the base to the top of the plateau gives visitors a scenic view while bypassing the extremely winding road to the top.
The resort is found on the Obudu Plateau, close to the Cameroon border in the northeastern part of Cross River State, approximately [1]110 kilometres (68 mi) east of the town of Ogoja and 65 kilometres (40 mi) from the town of Obudu in Obanliku Local Government Area of Cross River State.[4] It is about 30 minutes drive from Obudu town and is about a 332 kilometres (206 mi) drive from Calabar, the Cross River State capital.

Charter air service is available to the Bebi Airport which lies between the village of Obudu and the resort.however, the Air strip is no longer functional and the cable car has been grounded for a while now.

It is one of the places i plan to visit next year. I have always wanted to visit cross-river but never had a chance to. heard the place isn't well maintained as it once was. If that is the case then it is really sad because this is a beautiful site. We should take tourism a lot more seriously in this part of the world.
