Nok


The Nigerian Field Society visited the prehistoric village of Nok in June last year. As is widely known, Nok figures date from over two thousand years ago. Click here to see pix of the trip. There's another trip planned for this Saturday. If only the Tourist Development Corporation got its act in order (or private operators), this place would be a gold mine - its the equivalent of Stonehenge for Nigeria.

I think that local governments should develop tourist sites. It would be a way of ensuring that revenue generated remains in the community. I believe that part of the slow progress in this area is the centralization of Nigeria's tourism strategy.
