Oja Africa is Tourism Icon, Otunba Wanle Akinboboye's Tourism product of the week! Oja Africa according to him, was created to enhance the African continent's free trade agreement, which was itself created, "to make sure that we are able to trade without any barrier between the 54 African countries." The agreement created an opportunity for goods from all African countries to be available for the entire world to patronise. Furthermore, the idea of 'Oja Africa' is to make sure that we create an African Trade centre, whereby we all can come to the same spot to collect goods from all over Africa without hassles, without having to buy visas or expensive travel tickets all over Africa, or go through horrendous road transport from one African country to another. "So, as our tourism product for the week, Oja Africa, the African Market is to be replicated in as many destinations as possible, so that people can come to a central point and buy first, our culture....

  Sincerely, never in my imagination could I have thought of this atmosphere, this nature fulfilling environment. Yet, here I was at a location in Lagos, Nigeria. So serene, so peaceful, so alluring and beckoning on me to sail happily into a new emerging day. The cool morning dew interrupted my thoughts as birds of enormous different colours and beauty, continued to sing differently into my ears from trees all around my luxury beach home. The morning dew weather, reminding me of the early winter in Europe at this time. I had woken up to the cool fresh air that sipped through the Lagos lagoon through one of the semi closed windows of the luxury home I slept at La Campagne Tropicana Beach Resort at Ibeju-lekki. Upon opening the door, behold the lagoon was before me. I had actually slept the whole of the night, on top of the lagoon! Wow! I tried to see through the view hidden under the grew early morning dew, the deep greenery of the trees and vegetation surrounding the dark waters of...

Tourism icon, Otunba Wanle Akinboboye has released Ose Awards as the tourism product for the week, in the continuous journey, to present 52 products in 52 weeks. "Ose Awards as a tourism product, is an opportunity to celebrate and honour our legends who hail from across the 54 African countries and the entire world," said Otunba Wanle Akinboboye. "And that's because, Africa has never honoured and celebrated her heroes.  "So we are picking one hero each year, in what we call Ose Awards, a Yoruba word that means ‘thank you.’ The tourism icon reiterated. "We as a continent never celebrated our legends like Pele, like Mohammed Ali, like Louis Armstrong and so on." Akinboboye noted and went further, "we need to correct this anormaly by picking one hero, that will be awarded with 21 chieftaincy titles, by 21 African first class kings in a mega celebration during the Ipada Carnival and will also be awarded 21 acres of land to build a structure of his or ...

In an astonishing continuation of the ongoing plunder at the Zamfara State Government House, credible reports have brought to light a distressing inventory of looted valuables. The pillaging spree reportedly involved the removal of three pristine white Hilux vehicles, two luxurious Toyota Jeeps, a collection of elegant furniture, opulent row carpets, set of chairs, and a medley of electric equipment, including TVs and refrigerators. What adds a bitter twist to this unfolding saga is the fact that these activities are carried out under the watch of Dauda Lawan, the very individual who once spearheaded purported claims, media trials, and political vendettas against the esteemed personality of His Excellency, the Matawallen Maradun. Now, as the world watches, the stark disparity between words and actions has become glaringly clear, leaving a trail of disbelief and disappointment in its wake. As some undisclosed number of Toyota Hiluxes reportedly made their way to Kaduna, loaded with undi...

In line with his proposed delivery of 52 Tourism products within a time frame of 52 weeks which commenced in October 2023, Tourism Icon, Otunba Wanle Akinboboye has this week released AiM Festival as the 13th Tourism product to stimulate the entire Tourism industry globally. According to the Tourism Icon, AiM Festival as a tourism product, is a musical platform for the entire continent of Africa. It is a platform that enables people from all over the world to come to a particular place in Africa, to listen to good music from all around the continent. “Aim Festival creates not just an opportunity for music lovers across the world to come to one place to listen to music, but also creates an opportunity for scouts to come and find new talents at one place, instead of wandering around each African country, in search of talents. Africa International Music (AIM) Festival is thus, an annual music festival which takes place in Lagos at the luxurious African themed La Campagne Tropicana Beach R...

Governor Dauda Lawal Dare of Zamfara State has enlisted the Zamfara State Civilian (JTF). Today in Birnin Tudu, a district under Talata Mafara Local Government Area of Zamfara State, a peaceful Fulani man whose family house is said to have been closed to the village for more than 70 years was murdered with impunity. It is allegedly meant to aid security agencies in fighting kidnappers, and their families had never had any involvement or criminal records. Observing an innocent person who was well-known to many locals being slain inside a town by fanatical Civilian CJTF members who had lately been hired by the state governor was a very horrible and heartbreaking scene. Nigerians should condemn this act, which was carried out by the recently recruited Zamfara CJTF by Governor Dauda Lawal Dare. It may have been done to incite animosity between the federal government, led by Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the Fulani people, who are leading Nigeria toward peaceful coexistence and conflict resolution...
