In the revitalization of all indices of development in Nigeria and precisely Oyo state.
It is time to communicate the importance of the tourism sector and and mainstream it into the economy of the state.
South Africa is not driven by tourism for nothing. She has invested in research development and marketing of the sector. Between 1994 and 2014, the tourism growth of South Africa exceeds the pattern of the world growth; it is leading the entire Africa continent's economy.
Oyo state is endowed with rich diverse cultures which include wide varieties of indigenous festivals such as Sango and Oranyan in Oyo Town, Oke-Badan Hill in Ibadan, Beere in Saki, Olele in Ogbomoso and beautiful landscapes among which are Ado Awaye Suspended Lake, Igbo - Oba Royal Forest in Igboho, Iya Mapo Hill in Igbeti. Twins Festival in Igboora, A*o Ofi Festival in Isevin and others numerous species of flora and fauna with their scenic values.
However, most of these tourist sites are yet to be fully maximized to generate revenue and create employment for our youths. We implore individuals and government to harness this potential for the benefit of our dear state and Nigeria in general.
Àso-Ofi 2021 Festival, Ajo ma seni.
