NTDC Reposition Tourism in Nigeria with Tour Nigeria

Tourism is considered to be the most rapid developing 
sector globally , but this concept is 
perhaps for tourism in Nigeria . In spite of the abundant 
and wonderful diversity of Nigeria , tourism 
have never been producing potentially productive opportunities and 
prospects in the Nigerian community . This 
challenge could be traced back to the manner of 
Nigeria government in the direction of the progression of 
tourism centres . 
Nonetheless , in 1992 , The Nigeria Tourism 
Development Corporation ( NTDC ) was setup 
under the authority of Ministry of Culture and 
Tourism with the oblige to develop the 
tourism sector in Nigeria , so that it contributes 
to the wealth and well-being of Nigerians . The 
corporation has been encouraging , facilitating 
and developing tourism in Nigeria by offering 
technical and informative advice to state and 
tourism entrepreneurs on tourism promotion . 
Recently , the corporation devised a scheme to 
resurrect the sector . The scheme which was 
initiated under the administration of Mr . Folarin 
Coker , the Director General of NTDC . The 
initiative is geared towards re-branding the 
“Tour Nigeria” logo to promote regional and 
domestic tourism in Nigeria . With this scheme , 
the corporation is optimistic that the Nigeria 
creative expression and her cultural cum natural 
assets will be promoted with local and foreign 
tourists .
