Calabar is referred the as the most beautiful city in Nigeria. It the small city in Cross River state. It serves as the state’s capital. Calabar is very peaceful, but very busy I must say. This beautiful city is very culturally diverse as people from different part of the country live here. Calabar is most interesting during the end of the year when the popular Calabar carnival takes place.

My city is a fairly peaceful city and the people enjoy the fun dimension of life such as carnivals and parties. They are Efik by tribe and and are assumed to be lazy with regards to hard-work and economic activities. Unlike their Ibo brothers in the eastern part of Nigeria who are more industrious.
