Nigeria as the most populous country in the whole of Africa has a rich cultural heritage. As a country, Nigeria is blessed with diverse culture with natural vegetation, good weather condition, land mass and potential tourist sites. However, in the past, Nigeria did not realize nor take tourism as an important economic potential, as compared to some developed nations where tourism contributes a great deal in boosting their economies.
