AS the global community celebrates the World Tourism Day on Friday, Nigeria is counting its loss in tourism market due to low arrival of foreign visitors as some countries warn their citizens to see Nigeria as a “no-go-area” except for important businesses.

September 27 of every year is set aside by the United Nations (UNWTO) to promote the value of tourism as a driver of economic growth, inclusive development, and environmental sustainability.

Current travel advisories provided by the governments of the United Kingdom, Canada, and United States of America (USA) encourage their citizens to avoid visiting Nigeria save for “essential” reasons due to issues of insecurity ranging from kidnapping, violence, and terrorism to diseases such as Zika virus.

However, while Nigeria had been identified with evidence of Zika virus transmission prior to 2015, there is no available data that shows the virus is a current threat.

These countries also advise their citizens not to set their feet on the soil of some states in the country, if they had to come at all.

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) of the UK government indicated in its travel advisory updated on September 18 that the UK people should not travel to states including Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, and Gombe states.
