Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 31243, member: 636"] Gani Adams wants Nigeria's big bosses to invest in places people come to see. He talked about this at Olumo Rock during a big party for the 2025 Olumo Festival. He thinks tourism can bring lots of cash from other lands into Nigeria. But first, they must fix the safety problems that scare visitors away. Adams says we need spots where people can have fun and learn about our past at the same time. The Olumo party happens every year as part of a bigger event called the Lisabi Festival. People hold this party to honor a brave man named Lisabi Akala. Long ago, this hero fought hard and freed his Egba people from rulers they did not want. Many come each year to remember his brave acts through songs, dances, and fun. Adams pointed out how other places make big money from visitors. Thailand sees 40 million tourists yearly, and Britain gets about 35 million. Unlike oil or gold, which runs out when you dig it up, tourism stays forever. The more you make your special places shine, the more guests will arrive with money to spend, helping everyone earn more. The next steps should focus on making places safe for guests. Young people need to learn why old places matter. Adams thinks the country has many great spots nobody knows about yet. He asks leaders to build good roads to these places. When people feel safe, they bring friends next time. The big chief of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Gbadebo, said hello to everyone who came. He thanked Governor Dapo Abiodun for saying he would fix the three lifts at Olumo Rock. The plan aims to make this famous rock the best place tourists want to see in all Nigeria. When this happens, more jobs will come, and local shops will sell more things. [/QUOTE]
