The announcement was made during the 67th meeting of the Commission held in Livingstone, Republic of Zambia, under Agenda Item 8.

Nigeria’s successful bid saw expressions of intent from four member states: Kenya, Algeria, Nigeria, and Ghana. Demonstrating remarkable solidarity, Ghana withdrew its candidature in support of Nigeria, further underscoring the continent’s collaborative spirit.

A statement made available to LEADERSHIP, signed by Chindaya Ahmadu, Director of Press, Ministry of Tourism/Ministry of Arts, Culture, and Creative Economy, explained that the minister of tourism, Mrs Lola Ade-John, expressed her gratitude and excitement over the announcement.

“This is a testament to Nigeria’s growing influence and commitment to promoting tourism as a pivotal sector for economic development and cultural exchange.

“Hosting the 68th CAF meeting will provide an unparalleled platform to showcase Nigeria’s tourism potential and foster stronger ties among African nations,” the statement reads in part.

As the host of the 68th CAF meeting, Nigeria aims to leverage this opportunity to further align with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in promoting sustainable tourism.

The event will bring together key stakeholders, policymakers, and industry experts to discuss strategies and innovations that will drive the future of tourism in Africa.

 

The statement said the Nigerian government, under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s leadership, continued to emphasize the importance of tourism in the nation’s Renewed Hope agenda, adding that the minister, Lola Ade-John, has reiterated her commitment to delivering an exceptional experience for all delegates and participants.
