Ashinze said, “If you are trying to promote tourism in your country, everything needs to be simplified. Even when you have stringent visa policies, there should not be bottlenecks.

“If the process is online, let everything be online so that whatever I want to do will be done online. Issues concerning delays in issuing visas should also be addressed.”

In her reaction, the Minister for Tourism, Lola Ade-John, who was represented by her Special Adviser on Media, Elizabeth Ofili, noted that the ministry is collaborating with the Ministry of Interior to ensure that the stringent visa policies are reviewed.

She urged stakeholders in the tourism sector to collaborate with the government to harness the potential of the sector while harping on the investment opportunities in the tourism sector.

“Some changes have been made already to make the process easier. We are working with the relevant ministry to see how we can make the process easier”.

Nigeria stands at the forefront of Africa’s hospitality landscape, offering a wealth of investment prospects.
