Adebolu added that the Government was reinventing ways to explore tourism beyond the Yuletide.

She noted that the Government will find suitable ways to promote indigenous festivals exclusive to the state by having specific dates for celebrating various events.

In addition, Adebola hinted at plans by the Government to infuse tourism activities on waterways to attract foreigners while committing to host the Global Citizens Festival later in the year.
