When I was a student, studying Leisure and Tourism management in Nigeria, my lecturer told me that there is a particular hill located in Abuja known as Katampe Hill where the geographic centre of Nigeria is. I simply nodded to that statement and told myself that I must surely visit this significant hill when next I go to Abuja.

It is stale news that Nigeria's tourism industry is grossly under-developed, no thanks to successive governments economic misadventure. Worse still, the present government's much touted economic diversification drive tilts more towards solid minerals exploration than agriculture, tourism and services sector developments.
