The new push to position Lagos as the Tourism hub of West Africa and the Entertainment Capital of Africa was put on display during the recently held Accra Weizo Travel Expo in Accra, Ghana.

Lagos State mounted an exhibition along with 20 other firms at the 2 day event which took place at La Palm Royal Beach Hotel. The well attended travel event was supported by the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA).

Lagos was represented by Mr. Babatunde Anann and Mrs. Adanma Oni both Directors at the Ministry of Tourism Lagos with the Lagos Tourism Video played on the screen for most parts of the first day of the expo during breaks.

The second day of the event was dedicated to Tourism as both Lagos and Ghana Tourism Authority used the day to showcase their Tourism Assets.

Earlier the Carnival Calabar Dancers and the Ghanaian Carnival queens performed for the 2 days of the event.

Mr. Anann in his presentation told the Audience about the changes the new Administration has wrought in Lagos. Mrs. Oni invited them to visit Lagos and to participate in the One Lagos Festival in December.

Lagos becomes the second Nigerian state to Market its Tourism abroad after Cross River State and its Carnival Calabar.

Wow! Stunning! Hilton seems to be taking Africa by storm. Just a couple of years back, they opened the first ever in Eswatini.

Thank you for sharing such a detailed review about ethiopian airlines in your post. I am an avid traveller and keep reading flight reviews to assess the options available. Your review particularly drew my attention because you have shared so many pictures to capture every aspect of the flight experience. It is a very nice effort.

I am really tempted to book the next ethiopian airlines ticket and relive your journey. The pictures shared with the post also reflect that you truly enjoyed the travel. Great post! I also like the fact that you have covered nuances about the food and entertainment service through the pictures. It helps people know what to expect on their travel by this airline.
