There are no much animals to be seen neither are there much activities going on there. I wonder what happens to the revenues generated from the ticket sales. The few animals there are malnourished. The government agency in-charge should sit up, this is something for the kids and yet it is this badly managed

Ticket counter was still closed at 10.30 am, had to wait! Not worth 400 Naira ticket which they charge. Foul smell all over, not maintained well.

The National Children Park & Zoo, is a shadow of itself. The park is empty with few or no animals at all. What you find here are monkeys, Buffer lo, hernia, Tortoise, Donkey and that's all. The location of the park is okay but the zoo is zero.
I implore on those that are saddle with the responsible to take care of this place and government to quickly come to the rescue of the park and the animals in it,

A variety of play equipment. The only snag is each of them costs a lot and to the kids, it feels like a few seconds on the equipment so they ask to go for more rounds and you leave there after quite some spending. The children have fun though.

The place sincerely need serious attention from the management. the environment is just perfect and the location is cool with adequate security. But more creativity and maintenance should be put in place

It was such a memorable experiences. We really enjoyed our visit to the place with an experienced tour guard that took us round places.
The place accommodates a lot of fun with beautiful sight. A place to revisit again.

We really enjoyed our visit to the zoo. A nice animal keeper guided us personally through the zoo and explained each animal. Lots of information, friendly staff.
The ride on the turtle was especially great.
The garbage with the snakes was not so nice.
