The monarch in an exclusive interview with National Tribune has revealed why he spent his honeymoon in Nigeria, rather than travelling abroad.
According to Oba Ogunwusi, there is a need to promote local tourism industry. As a leader in Nigeria, it was very important for him to patronise resorts located in the country.
He said,
“There is a saying that charity begins at home. It’s very important that we have home grown tourism. I am very passionate about domestic tourism.”
“Why should I go abroad? Why? Does it have any economic meaning? No. It does not and I am an advocate of anything Nigerian; I walk with it, I sleep and wake up with Nigeria, it rings in by brain and I am Nigerian to the core.”
Oba Ogunwusi is a strong advocate of tourism. He has repeatedly stated that his home town, Ile-Ife, has the potential to become one of the world’s best tourist centers.
He spoke of economic empowerment and occupation of the youths as one of perks of having a functional tourism industry.
“I am a tourism gospel spreader and I cannot or no longer hide myself.”
“Tourism is important. It is one economic sector which Nigeria, as an entity, and Nigerians as a people, have not come to terms with, in relations to its economic indispensability.”
“If we have positive movement in the area of tourism, it will empower a lot of youths.”
The monarch has developed a hands-on approach to some of the challenges in Ile-Ife and Osun State in general.
He is quite adamant that with dedication and effective collaboration, the state would soon start to live up to its potential.
