An Abuja-based businessman, Mr Emmanuel Ozigi, has urged the federal government to ensure regulations that will encourage investment in the Nigeria’s hospitality and tourism sector.
This, according to him will increase employment, reduces poverty, and generate income for the government. Speaking at the opening of the Bukkies Park and Recreational Garden in Abuja at the weekend, Ozigi said, “This country is blessed and we have so many potentials. Take the example of the Obudu Cattle Ranch. Look at the potential there. Why do you need to spend your hard-earned money outside the country when you have things like this? Go to Akwa Ibom, you have the seaside resort. You will enjoy it. Why do you have to go outside the country? You go to Lagos to see so many things.
“We are of the opinion that the government would be a bit liberal in allowing us to get approval for some infrastructure that we intend to put here because a lot of people have funds to invest but because of government constraints in terms of regulation they find it difficult to do.
