    The trees, the space and the river makes it a great spot for picnic. It is also good place to relax and have a feel of nature, with some amazing animals.

    The environment is okay and the staffs are trying their best,but it will make more sense if they add more animals,the place is almost empty.

    A cool atmosphere with interesting views. They still need to add some more animals to the zoo though. Ogba Zoo is a state-owned zoological park in Benin City, capital of Edo State, Nigeria. The nature park was established in 1965 in a forest reserve in the Ogba District, four kilometers from the town center.

    This is the only Zoo in Benin city, Edo state Nigeria.is the only place that gives children in Edo state who do not have the means of traveling out of the state the oppourtunity of seeing animals they are being thought about in school..though poorly managed but still gives children the room to explore their imaginations.
