A tourism expert, Mr Darlington Okpebholo, on Saturday urged the Federal Government to invest more in culture, tourism and entertainment due to their revenue-generating potential for the country. Okpebholo, the African Coordinator, African Festival of Arts and Culture (AfrikFest), Las Vegas, U.S., said this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja. NAN reports that the AfrikFest is culled from African Festival. Okpebholo said that the Federal Government should concentrate on culture, tourism and entertainment because apart from giving relaxation and memorable experiences, it could also make more money from them. The AfrikFest African coordinator, however, advised the government not to pay lip service in the development of the sector.
