My town will shortly become popular all over the world as the whole world will soon be visiting for tourism. I have set up a monumental edifice that is displaying our cultural inheritance like artifacts, and you can see culture being safeguarded. I want to preserve our culture and showcase to the world that we have rich cultural values.
People perceive our cultural inheritance as fetish but that is not right. Other nations of the world are safeguarding their cultures, as we are in cultural predicament, wasting what God has endowed us with. I want to change the narrative. You can yourself witness what I am building. I have preserved lives.
We have a zoo in this resort where we protect animals. I have contracted a company to bring in huge animals, particularly those that are go- ing into oblivion. I have a poultry farm and other things. This resort centre is to make the world be grateful for our rich culture. This place will shortly be organizing the world. You have seen the Star University. Also, it’s called Sports University. In the sub-Saharan Africa, it is the first of its kind. Students are going to study sports science there.
We would educate students on 13 different types of sports, though we will add some conventional courses like Accountancy, Law, Busi- ness Administration and so on. However, we are going to target more on sports. After study, our students will contend and blend with the international community.
Why tourism?
Tourism makes a country powerful economically. People asked why I am “wast- ing” billions behind isolated town like Idumuje-Ugboko and I smile. After developing my re- sort centre to a level, my town will turn into a city. People do not know that tourism develops and empowers a country economically.
