Christmas and New Year is over.

Sights and sounds, experiences and contacts, are indelible in our hearts.

Income, movement of people and experiences are part of tourism during the season.

On a personal note, I am worried, is the hassle and bustle of the season worth it? Why the noise about that time of the year? Does it mean that humanity created what they cannot control? People engage in social vices during that era to meet up and I ask meet up with who?

It might be a season to meet with friends, relatives and allies but that can be done any other time of the year.

I think people should devise a means of reacting to events that they did not create. This period was handed down to us by some folks who have rotten in the soil. It has served their interest then and I doubt if this is serving our interest now.

Who said Jesus was born on 25th December? Please meet a historian for illumination about Xmas and Google Saturnalia to enrich your knowledge.

Africans should stop following some of the conventions that has no relationship with our realities sheepishly. We can correct these things. Who said we must work from 8am to 4pm, monday to friday? Can't we work from Monday to Wednesday/Thursday. Engage in other activities from friday to Sunday......why can't we worship God on a friday or monday...Who created Sunday?

Is time humanity question some of the stuffs we hold so dear and ask for its impacts in our lives. An idea that was initiated over thousands of years ago cannot be relevant in ever changing world.

If Christmas was a time to rejoice and reflect about the birth of Jesus Christ by early Christians, do you think that 21 century Christians think in that direction? Is it no a period some con artiste (Pastors) use to organize conventions to milk their congregations?

We have similar period of mass return in different traditional settings, especially the New yam festival among the Igbos, why is that heritage dying? Some parts of Ghana celebrate yam too.

Christmas might be a period of fun, but the present means and methods use in celebrating Xmas is stressful and worrisome. The quest for it has landed many youth in trouble. is time to rethink that season.

Calabar carnival is one of the biggest Xmas event in Nigeria. We can develop others and make good use of Xmas. Lets make Xmas period a season for cultural celebrations in this part of the world.
Have a fruitful and blissful January.

A natural resource that can enrich a community. Drive rural tourism and place the community in the tourism map of Enugu State and Nigeria at large.

What you are seeing in my hands is tiny beautiful stones meticulously picked from a stream called IYI-NZU in Enugu state.
The site must be visited with caution due to the loose nature of the terrain. I had a funny encounter, thanks to two able-bodied men that saved me but that's is a story for another day. (Stay, tuned to this page for details about this Iyi-nzu stream)

We can harness these stones for bead making and other artistic works.
Can we assess other streams in Nsukka cultural area in search of this precious stone? I need a geologist for proper identification.
Appreciation:
We want to thank Dr. Iyke Erojikwe (Ikuku) of Theatre and Film Studies, University of Nigeria, Nsukka for making transportation free for us.
Apologies: I urge UNN-Explorers to sit back and watch out for our 2020 outings, it will be fun-filled, educative and entertaining. Meanwhile, our brother from Mugabe's country, I have not seen my souvenir ooooh. Do you want me to mention your name?

Compliments of the seasons!

Geotourism resources in Nigeria.

Caves are common feature in most states in southeastern Nigeria. These caves serve different purposes in different communities. The use of caves during the 'unwarranted and unjustified' Nigeria-Biafra war from 1967-1970 is a field of study worthy of exploration but that is not my present concern.

Who visits caves in Nigeria? What is their profile like? What is the relevance of their profile to sustainable tourism development?

Why not make out time to attend ATDiN conference in University of Nigeria, Nsukka from 10th-13th of November, 2019.

Offer: Ottourism management will offer free accommodation to two foreign Post-Graduate students.

BEACH TOURISM

Akwuke Beach located in Enugu State Nigeria.
A beehive of economic activities such as stone mining and sand extraction. A natural scenic spot for relaxation.

Given its vast space the site can co-exist with economic activities going on on a section of the beach. Its potential for picnic, carnival, and shows cannot be overemphasized.

Caution need to be applied in developing the area due to proximity of Fulani settlement in the area; while its accessibility need to be enhanced.

Why are we adamant when it comes to developing our tourism resources, yet we admire the ones we see in other countries. We pay in HARD-CURRENCIES to enjoy them, meanwhile we have them here and can enjoy it free of charge.

Who will bell the cat in this part of the world, especially in the area of tourism?
