The world's largest theme park operator has announced plans to open up a Six Flags-branded park in the Calabar Cross River State of Nigeria.
The park is included in the "Destination Tourism" development plan which involves the park being built and operational by 2013.
The land area designated to this project is 100 hectares in size and sits next to the Tinapa Business Resort.
"We look forward to collaborating with the Cross River State Government to bring the Six Flags experience to this exciting, rapidly expanding region", said Mark Shapiro, Six Flags President and Chief Executive Officer.
Once built, the park is expected to attract millions of tourists to the region.
