Greetings to you all my friends and fellow steemians, trust you all are doing great? I am very excited to make another entry in this amazing contest @mytownin10pics. It is amazing how this contest has prompted me to move round my city to take the pictures below. Uyo is a city that is filled with exciting and eye catching sites. It has so many beautiful places to capture. I will try my best to go round now and more to bring you more pictures. Please carefully view the pictures which I went round my city to capture.

21 story building

///ammenda.soci.gonfiato

This tall building is a 21 story building. It was originally built to house the mobile staff and then become their offices but from the look of things and from the information I gathered from a passerby, the mobile will no longer make use of it. It seems it might be rented out in the end when all things are in place and the building is fully commissioned. I can only wait and see who finally inhabits it or for what purpose it is finally used for.

International Christian centre

This is a building still under construction by Tue present state Government here in Uyo. According to the passerby that I asked, she said the Governor is building it as an international Christian center. That is is non denominational. This is my first time of seeing this building. But the design is top notch as you can see from the picture. I can only wait and see when it will be completed.

NNPC stands for Nigeria National Petroleum corporation. It is a petrol station that is owned and managed by the federal government here in Nigeria. It sales petrol at the lowest rate compared to other private owned stations. My husband likes buying petrol here, though sometimes due to the low rate of petrol here, the que is usually much which can sometimes be discouraging. But some people still prefer to wait

AKTC stands for Akwa Ibom Transport Company. It is a mega transport company here in Uyo. It is owned by the State government.
