Abuja Targets ₦11 Trillion Tourism Revenue in New Partnership
The Federal Capital Territory Administration has partnered with a private firm to generate ₦11 trillion from Abuja’s tourism sector over the next decade.
This ambitious project aligns with the Federal Government’s tourism growth strategy, positioning Abuja and its six area councils as prime destinations for leisure and investment.
The plan involves modernizing existing attractions, developing new cultural landmarks, and hosting high-profile events to attract both international and local visitors.
The Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Creative Economy projects that strategic investment could contribute trillions to Nigeria’s economy while creating millions of jobs.
Abuja’s central location, established hospitality facilities, and infrastructure provide competitive advantages for the initiative. The project is expected to boost employment, support local businesses, and preserve cultural heritage.
This public-private partnership represents a significant step toward unlocking Nigeria’s tourism potential, with Abuja leading the way in demonstrating how collaboration can drive economic growth through the tourism and creative sectors.
