Not bad from what I was expecting. Govt should just improve the road infrastructure through asphalt overlaying or concrete tiles, add pedestrian and bicycle lanes, create public parks/creational centers and introduce public transport systems. It’s has has that huge touristic potentials. Would love to visit there some day

[@allieugembeh9865]

And maybe also, Govt should encourage the citizens of Bonny Island to paint their houses with blend of attractive colors just like they have it in Sychelles and Mauritius. Govt should also get some standout buildings done along the main highways on the Island. Spacious construction should be encouraged as well

[@michaelokpara6676]

I have heard of bonny island a couple of times and like you said in the video many Nigerian won't get to see this island because it not connected to the country by bridge or airport ecept by boat and not many Nigerians fancy boat ride cos there is little or no safety precautions in place using the rickety boats. But am not disappointed to see bonny is up to what people what many people claim it is inspite of all the wealth coming from this side of the country only the oil companies and their foreign workers coupled with some Nigerians really are benefitting from the wealth here

[@enemikaribo3892]

President Buhari is constructing a road now to Bonny island 🏝️ it is called the Bodo -Bonny road and bridges 39 kilometers road may God bless president Buhari

@Enemi Karibo, that's quarters truth. The Bodø Bonny bridge is done is collaboration with the FG, NLNG and Julius Begger. So far FG has not been able to even pay it's part of the money.

[@elmarims8394]

At least, the road will soon be completed, that's the positive side to it. You are welcome to get to Bonny this December and tour the Island via a cruise boat though. There's an event that will be accompanied by festival, entertainment and tourism this December. I just saw it on Facebook on the Bonny chamber of Commerce platform

You are right about the fact that it could be a lot better with the right investment. The Bonny Chamber of Commerce is hosting an Investment and Tourism Expo in Bonny this December to discuss investment opportunities and launch it's Free Trade Zone. I actually look forward to the event especially as it will come with festivals and tours around the island. The event is something that will open up investment on the island.

[@aubreywaldron7771]

Bonny Island is very big for an Island. It could be developed into a city and there is enough land to build an airport, so the citizens of Nigeria an see their country.

[@aubreywaldron7771]

The Nigerian government need vision for this Island. They can get the government of China to build a big transportation boat for it citizens to travel in comfort on that long journey, and people will visit the island, it can be developed into a tourist attraction.

You seem to get me wrong. I am pointing out that the same Nigerian factor that affects other parts of Nigeria also affects this place.

Ibani is the native and spoken language of ancient Okolo-ama Kingdom and we are proudly Ibani-se. English, Pidgin, ndoki, and Efik language are also spoken by locals and residents of the Bonny Town.
