Nigeria to host Global Tourism Conference in November \u2013 Lai Mohammed

Conference<\/span><\/p>\n

By Oladele Eniola<\/span><\/p>\n

Lagos, April 25, 2022 (NAN) The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, says Nigeria will host the Global Tourism Conference at the National Theatre, Iganmu, Lagos, in November.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mohammed said this on a TV Continental (TVC) current affairs programme titled, \u2018This Morning,\u2019 monitored by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said the conference, scheduled for Nov. 14 to Nov. 16, would hasten the recovery of the tourism sector from the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the minister, the conference will create employment opportunities and improve the economy of the country.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHosting this conference shows the recognition of the role that the country is playing in the industry as Nigeria has become the hub and catalyst for its growth.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe World Tourism Organisation sees the bigger picture of the country as we are making a lot of strides in our cultural tourism -when you look at our music, fashion and film \u2013 that speaks a lot.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe likes of Davido, Burna Boy, Wizkid and Olamide, amongst others, have made a lot of strives in the music industry worldwide and they are great ambassadors for the country as they have showcased us to the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis conference would be showcasing film, fashion and music which would open the industry to the wider global stage,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mohammed said the conference would reposition the nation\u2019s creative industry, which was contributing two per cent to the Gross Domestic Product.<\/span><\/p>\n

He added that the National Theatre would be a signature cluster after its renovation.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHosting the conference at the National Theatre is strategic as it would be showcasing the newly renovated facility to the world and it would be a signature cluster.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt would be housing four sections, namely: fashion, music, film and information technology, within the complex.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have inspected the site several times and we are impressed with the job that is going on there.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBy the time the renovation is completed, it will be a world-class theatre,\u201d the minister said.<\/span><\/p>\n

He dismissed the notion that the National Theatre would be renamed.<\/span><\/p>\n

He explained that there would be four signature hubs in the complex to be called \u2018Lagos Creative and Entertainment Centre,\u2019 \u201cbut the National Theatre would remain the same.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

On cultural values, the minister said there was need for parents to instil values in their children.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere has been a massive erosion of our cultural values and this has to do with everybody, especially the parents, as they must take responsibility.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cParents should know that sending a five or seven-year-old child to a boarding house, when they should be under their tutelage, can backfire in a bad way.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSome even take pride in the fact that their kids can\u2019t speak their indigenous languages,\u201d said Mohammed.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said many parents had the wrong notion that indigenous languages were culturally based and could not be used to teach morals to their childrens.<\/span><\/p>\n

The government, Muhammed said, had been carrying out several campaigns on the importance of cultural values.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBut in all these, parents must take responsibilities as they are the ones that can instil certain qualities in their children,\u201d he said. (NAN) (www.nannews.ng)<\/span><\/p>\n
