Dr Adebisi presented a paper on the tourism potentials in the State of Osun. He equally seized the opportunity of the grand event to inform guests from the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria of the incoming ‘KARELE OODUA’ festival aimed at boosting our cultural heritage.
Because of the foreign exchange that will be involved, it is expected that ‘KARELE OODUA’ would boost the economy of the state, create employment for our teeming youths, and open the space for Public-Private Partnership that would open the door for the State of Osun to the world like what is obtainable in other countries like Mecca, Dubai, Israel etc.
The first ever KARELE OODUA is a concept to work towards the departure from the traditional monthly reliance on the monthly allocation from the federal government of Nigeria to the tourism potentials inherent in the state.
