    • Thankgod A. ★★★★★ : My visit to The Turf Calabar was memorable. The ambience is modern and cozy, with a vibrant mix of people that gives it a nice social feel. I enjoyed the food and drinks, which were well-prepared and reasonably priced. The service was also on point, and the music added to the lively atmosphere. It’s the kind of place you go to relax after a long week, watch a match, or catch up with friends.

    • Marcus M. ★★★★★ : Abraham Ordia stadium is private football pitch belonging to the university of Calabar. It is used mostly by students for training and occasionally for competitive matches. It has been used in the past by the National football team the Super Eagles as a training ground. The pitch is a standard FIFA sized pitch with natural turf. It also has an extension for track events.
    • Akefon F. ★★★★★ : Abraham Odia is the sport Arena of the University of Calabar. A miniature stadium with standard facility. This place has severally served as training pitch for super eagles and other national teams. The seating capacity is low though the topography allows more fans. The place is secure and the pitch is a standard one. It can be accessed from Goldie Mount Zion, Etta Agbor and Atamunu. For those trekking, Goldie entrance is the best. For a good parking space, enter from the main Campus gate.

    • Vivian U. ★★★★★ : It is now fenced with a gate that is usually left open for passerbys. There's an African Church to the right which also provides access to the field as that portion is unfenced. Field is large enough to accommodate a 7 aside football match, and host open door events. There's still a portion of overgrown bushes inside too
    • Hilary E. ★★★★★ : I did a CRUSADE there and it was so open, large and peaceful in the environment.
