You may have heard of the beautiful tourist sights in Arochukwu, Abia State Nigeria but what you may not know is that there is historic spot in that town called Independence Park. It is not just the usual recreation park you always see. There is something very special about this place and this should be one of the reasons you should visit Arochukwu town as a tourist.
Arochukwu is my neighbouring LGA. I’m glad someone is finally showing the world all of these tourist attractions there. The State government needs to harness the numerous tourism potentials in that place. It should start by building the roads that lead to Aro. There is s much more we need to see: there are still the relics of the Anglo-Aro war in 1901
