28. 11th Five year plan for tourism (2013-2018)
• The tourism sector will assume a greater role in the
economic growth during the Plan period. According to
earlier-recorded stats of the defunct federal Ministry of
Tourism, tourists’ arrival is estimated to grow at an
average rate of 10.8 per cent per annum to reach 2.136
million, while tourism receipts are targeted to reach
$690 million in 2018. These estimates, though
ambitious, but yet attainable if right policies are planned
