BENEFITS OF TOURISM                                                                                         

Tourism plays a significant role in the Nigerian economy, offering various benefits such as:

  1. Economic Growth: Tourism contributes to GDP growth through spending on accommodations, transportation, attractions, and other services, creating jobs and income for locals.
  2. Job Creation: The tourism sector generates employment opportunities directly in hospitality, travel agencies, tour guiding, and indirectly in related industries like agriculture and handicrafts.
  3. Foreign Exchange Earnings: Inbound tourism brings in foreign currency through expenditures by international visitors, helping to improve the country's balance of payments.
  4. Infrastructure Development: The need for tourism facilities like hotels, roads, airports, and recreational centers drives infrastructure development, benefiting both tourists and locals.
  5. Cultural Preservation: Tourism can foster the preservation of Nigeria's rich cultural heritage by promoting cultural activities, heritage sites, and traditional arts and crafts.
  6. Regional Development: Tourism can stimulate development in rural and less developed areas by attracting investment, infrastructure development, and job creation, reducing regional economic disparities.
  7. Diversification of Economy: Tourism diversifies the economy by reducing dependency on traditional sectors like oil and gas, making it more resilient to economic shocks.
  8. Promotion of Local Businesses: Tourism encourages the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by providing opportunities for local entrepreneurs to offer products and services to tourists.
