This call was made by the president of the association, Chef Paulinus Okon, while briefing journalists on the just concluded West Africa Chefs Food Festival held in Ghana and informed about the association plans to host the festival in Nigeria by next year.

According to Okon, it is important that the government throws its weight behind the association in its quest to develop the profession and Nigeria food culture.

He thanked the Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation, (NTDC) for its continued support, stating that the association needs more support from the government because “Whatever we are doing we are doing for the cultural heritage  and of course we are portraying the good image of our dear nation.

“Our journey to Ghana was hectic and it was not just cooking dishes but to also display our national dishes and that is also a way of showcasing our own food. So it has been so stressful and early this year we contributed money to organise our own congress and it was not easy. So the government should come in to support the association so that we can position ourselves the way it should be.”

The association also called on the government to establish the ministry of Tourism as there is no state in Nigeria that does not have tourist attractions, adding that the ministry of Tourism helps to develop our GDP.
