As part of efforts to transform the tourism sector, the Lagos State Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture has expressed readiness to partner with the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
While receiving a team from the LCCI, the ministry’s Permanent Secretary, Mrs Oyinade Nathan-Marsh, said the partnership would further assist the ministry in the achievement of its mandates, increase networking and engender mutual interest.
Responding to some of the issues raised by the LCCI team regarding tourism development, she informed the visitors that the state government was consolidating and improving the security architecture of the state to ensure that all its tourism sites are well-secured for both local and international tourists.
“For us in Lagos State, we’re more concerned with enabling the tourism sector. Take for instance, we are enhancing our security architecture so that people can feel safe and secure when they visit tourism, hospitality and entertainment centres in all parts of the state,” Nathan-Marsh stated.
The permanent secretary then thanked the LCCI team for the visit, while assuring them of the state’s commitment to promoting the tourism industry as private-sector.
