Ondo to declare Araromi seaside as tourists zone
The Araromi Seaside in Igbokoda, Ilaje Local Government Area (LGA), according to Ondo State Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, will make the state a popular tourism destination on a global scale.

When he made this statement on Friday in Akure, Akeredolu added that the government had finalised the necessary paperwork to designate the Seaside as a tourism zone.

He said that the State's enormous tourism potential would no longer go unrealized and added that the announcement will draw attention to the state on a worldwide scale.

Akeredolu stated that La Campagne Tropicana Beach Resort Ltd. would be a partner in the development.

He asserted that it will bring to the Sunshine State the tourism success stories, particularly those from Dubai.

“We have reached an agreement to declare our waterfronts or shores, where we have a lot of advantage in the country, a Tourism zone,” he said.

Otunba Wanle Akinboboye, Chairman, La Campagne Tropicana Beach Resort Ltd., said that the declaration would create jobs and drive revenue generation in the state.

Akinboboye said the declaration would provide a platform for the present and future generation to enjoy tourism to the fullest.

He said the natural tourist endowment of Sunshine State would be explored for the benefits of not only Nigerians, but the global community for the economic prosperity of the state.

“I am sure you are aware that there is 840 Kilometres of beachfront in Nigeria across six states in which Ondo state has the longest with almost 200 kilometers of it.

“The entire Dubai has a total of 70 kilometers of beachfront; they welcome over 15.9 million visitors every year.

“Just imagine if they spend a thousand dollars, multiply by 15.9 million people, that is what Mr Governor wants to replicate, to bring the entire world here,” he said.

Akinboboye said it would attract huge employment opportunities, adding that the state had several attractions of acquatic zone.

“We have the richest ocean because of limited operations of trollers, so our sea is extremely rich with different species of fish, prawns and the entire tourism activity that we believe very strongly will not only attract just Nigerians, but Africans in Diaspora.

“A declaration like this will attract the world to that area for business opportunities. With this declaration, we in the state would have built a homogenous platform for tommorow’s people.

“The platform we are standing on today was built by yesterday’s people. Mr Governor has begun the process of the platform for tomorrow’s people,” he said.
