探索 Ikot Ekpene 感覺就像漫步在阿布賈的街道上,這裡的發展迅速而大規模。高等級的尼龍柏油路以及當地人和豪薩社區的融合體現了團結的寧靜氛圍。
Sports journalist, Sab Osuji, shares his experience covering the Super Eagles build-up towards the crucial 2025 AFCON qualifier against the Mediterranean Knights of Libya at the magnificent Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo, on 11 October 2024.
體育記者 Sab Osuji 分享了他在 2024 年 10 月 11 日在烏約宏偉的 Godswill Akpabio 國際體育場對陣利比亞地中海騎士隊的關鍵 2025 年非洲杯預選賽中超級老鷹隊備戰的經驗。
Arriving in Uyo on Tuesday, 8 October 2024, I never knew I was going to learn things I had never known before about Uyo and Ikot Ekpene, despite having been here countless times covering the Nigeria League, athletics (Mobil Track & Field, Eket), and the Super Eagles since they began ‘flocking together at the Nest of Champions.’
2024 年10 月8 日星期二抵達烏約,我從來不知道自己會學到關於烏約和伊科特·埃克佩內(Ikot Ekpene) 的一些我以前從未了解過的東西,儘管我已經無數次來到這裡報道尼日利亞聯賽、田徑比賽(美孚田徑、Eket) ,以及超級老鷹隊自從他們開始“聚集在冠軍之巢”以來。
On that Tuesday evening, after a long and tiring journey from Onitsha, South-East Nigeria, I was immediately struck by a cleaning exercise underway at the beautiful stadium. I was amazed to see workers suspended by cranes, power-washing the magnificent stadium structure. It was remarkable—everything aimed at maintaining the facility’s beauty.
那個星期二晚上,從尼日利亞東南部奧尼查經過漫長而疲憊的旅程後,我立即被美麗的體育場正在進行的清潔工作所震驚。我驚訝地看到工人們被吊車懸掛著,用動力清洗宏偉的體育場結構。這是非凡的——一切都是為了保持設施的美麗。
Afterwards, I headed straight to Ikot Ekpene, where the Super Eagles are quartered, and where I came close to seeing what I would call a ‘wonder of the nation.’ Stopping at Sanni Ogun Road, in front of the Four Points By Sheraton Hotel, I caught a glimpse of the imposing, impressive and illuminated edifice. Exhausted, I couldn’t do much but look for a place to rest my head for the night.
隨後,我直奔伊科特埃克佩內 (Ikot Ekpene),超級老鷹隊駐紮的地方,我差點就看到了我所說的「國家奇蹟」。我在桑尼奧貢路的四點喜來登酒店前停下來,瞥見了這座宏偉、令人印象深刻且燈火通明的建築。疲憊不堪的我無能為力,只能找個地方休息一晚。
The media parley with the players at Four Points By Sheraton Ikot Ekpene on Wednesday afternoon gave me the chance to admire the architectural beauty of the hotel, which was commissioned in 2014 by the then Akwa Ibom State Governor, now Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.
週三下午在伊科特埃佩內喜來登四點酒店與球員們進行的媒體會談讓我有機會欣賞酒店的建築之美,該酒店是由當時的阿誇伊博姆州州長、現任參議院議長戈德斯威爾·阿克帕比奧(Godswill Akpabio) 於2014 年委託建造的。
On Thursday, 10 October, I explored further and, with the help of a local, I discovered that the Four Points By Sheraton Ikot Ekpene is the third Sheraton Hotel in Nigeria, following the ones in Abuja and Lagos.
10月10日星期四,我進一步探索,在當地人的幫助下,我發現伊科特埃佩內喜來登四點酒店是繼阿布賈和拉各斯之後在尼日利亞的第三家喜來登酒店。
Interestingly, the Ikot Ekpene Sheraton Hotel is the tallest of the three, with an imposing 12-storey structure. It features an electronic crane on the rooftop, which carries two or three people and rotates around the circular building for regular cleaning.
有趣的是,伊科特埃佩內喜來登酒店 (Ikot Ekpene Sheraton Hotel) 是三座酒店中最高的,擁有 12 層樓的宏偉建築。它的屋頂有一個電子起重機,可以承載兩到三個人,繞著圓形建築旋轉,進行定期清潔。
I also learned that Four Points By Sheraton Ikot Ekpene was built on land that used to house the Ikot Ekpene Prisons, constructed in 1919 by the British Colonial Government of Eastern Nigeria. The prison was demolished by Governor Akpabio in 2012 to make way for the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel project, which was completed and commissioned in 2014.
我還了解到,伊科特埃佩內喜來登四點酒店的原址曾是伊科特埃佩內監獄的所在地,該監獄由尼日利亞東部英國殖民政府於 1919 年建造。 2012 年,阿克帕比奧州長拆除了這座監獄,為 2014 年竣工並投入使用的喜來登四點酒店項目讓路。
Governor Akpabio relocated the prison to Abiakpo Edem Idim, where the second Republic President, Alhaji Shehu Shagari, had initiated a prison project in 1981. The project had been abandoned until Akpabio revived it. Overlooking the Sheraton Hotel is the former premises of the prison wardens, which Akpabio also demolished to establish a park for beautification.
阿克帕比奧州長將監獄遷至阿比亞克波·埃德姆·伊丁(Abiakpo Edem Idim),第二任共和國總統阿爾哈吉·謝胡·沙加里(Alhaji Shehu Shagari) 於1981 年在那裡啟動了監獄計畫。俯瞰喜來登酒店的是監獄長的舊址,阿克帕比奧也將其拆除,以建立一個美化公園。
Exploring Ikot Ekpene felt like walking through the streets of Abuja, with its rapid and massive development. The high-grade, nylon-tarred roads and the blend of locals and the Hausa community reflect a serene atmosphere of unity and oneness.
探索 Ikot Ekpene 感覺就像漫步在阿布賈的街道上,這裡的發展迅速而大規模。高等級的尼龍柏油路以及當地人和豪薩社區的融合體現了團結的寧靜氛圍。
