We have not issued any statements at any time indicating that we are on the verge of terminating operations in the country.

Nigeria is such a blessed country with great abundance in almost everything BUT because of the mindset, so much ignorance and wastage is the order of the day. Every state in Nigeria has its unique features for tourism, and getting these sites to generate income requires just a little. But because of selfish desires these sites are allowed to rot away. Nigerians every year take huge sum of money out side the country to see sites in other countries. As a travel and tour consultant, I see what other countries are doing in their tourism sectors and it hurts so much that a country such as Nigeria will not take advantage of the beautiful opportunities. I guess its high time we stop all the summits, seminars, communique and get to work. In this industry you cannot afford to put a square peg in a round hole its a luxury. I look forward to selling Nigerian tours.
