As
Nigeria is ranked one of the fastest growing hospitality hotspots in the world,
with a huge travelling public and aviation profile, and its travel agencies
generating over $1.25b in a year, it is expected that the future of travel
business in Nigeria is bright.
Cross
River State of Nigeria, popularly called by some tourists who have had the
opportunity visiting the State during the yuletide period as the “Gift of
Nature To Nigeria” will no doubt attest to its rich cultural heritage.
The
Carnival Calabar will showcase to a select audience at the 4th edition of Abuja
Bantaba, the meeting event for travel professionals on April 25.
The
State has led the tourism promotion
business in Nigeria using the Carnival as it’s pivot, drawing participation
from all over the world thus establishing the carnival as a must watch event in
Africa. For most people who cannot go to Calabar in December, Abuja Bantaba
offers the opportunity to see this world famous spectacle outside of Calabar.
As
the world celebrates 100 years of
aviation, Abuja Bantaba will be celebrating 100 years of growth and
development of travel business in Nigeria and the carnival is the biggest draw
for the event. The event will also celebrate the pioneers, the exceptional
innovators and the legends of the travel business some of whom have never been
recognized before.
The
centenary of Nigeria comes with different landmark celebrations and for the
tourism sector and players, the stage is set to roll out drums not only to
assess and celebrate achievements, but also to encourage icons whose efforts
are indelible at bringing tourism promotion to the limelight.
If
you are a lover of FUN and loves the rich cultural heritage of Africa, you
better start planning your trip to Abuja come April 25.
