Nigeria - Kaduna & Abuja 2025

After a complimentary breakfast at the hotel, I ordered a Bolt to the Discovery museum. On getting to the museum, I was told that there was a school tour ongoing for the 11am and 12 noon slots, and I was told to come back at 1pm. So I decided to head off to the National museum which according to the internet, is located at the National Commission for Museum and Monuments HQ. The Bolt took me to the federal secretariat complet, and I navigated my way to the office Block C 1st floor. On getting there, I was told that after moving to this office, they had nowhere to display their collection of artifacts and collections. It ended up being a wasted journey.

Leaving the museum, I headed to the Millenium Park, which was opened in 2003 by Queen Elizabeth. The park is quite big, with a stream flowing through it. The grasses well manicured, and the landscaping was very pleasant to the eyes. Best of all, Zuma rock could be seen in the background, making the location very picturesque. I spent over an hour in the pack enjoying the cool breeze under the trees and the pleasant sight.

From the Millenuim park, I got a Bolt to take me to Tribe Afrik Restaurant, which I saw on Google search, but the alas on getting there, we could not locate the restaurant. Apparently, they were no longer at that location or gone out of business. So the driver suggested a new and popular restaurant, Yakoyo at the CBD.

Yakoyo was quite busy. It seems to be a popular eatery for office workers in the CBD area. Iy had a vast collection of food which you point to for the ser ing ladies to dish out for you. I ate Asaro (Yam Porridge with Goat meat), which was nice.

After the meal, I went back to the Discovery Museum to catch the 3pm tour. The tour fee was NGN 6,000.00. The museum is lovely put together in a very informative way using modern digital technology to enhance the presentation.Читать далее
