2. Meet Àjàlá
I am a world traveler
In a sense, I am a local man going global.
Yes it is true I am the subject of myths. Some say I travel truck,
by bicycle and my thrusty old VW beetle. Others even claim I
have tested the elements on foot!
Ha! I have heard it said that I am stricken with wanderlust and
will remain restless till I have visited new places.
Indeed I have seen the beauty of the world we live in. Though
my heart rests in distant lands from my native country, my feet
always remember their way home.
My name is Àjàlá and I would be happy if you would join me on
my next adventure. Ipade wa bi oyin*

3. Àjàlá’s Business
In Nigeria today it is the best of times and the worst of times, the
increasing prosperity in Nigerian cities has caused a rise in the
number of expatriate residents1 , there is also a rise in the number of
returning Nigerian professional seeking employment at home2. The
are still many problems ranging from the frequent blackouts3 to over
populated cities4. The former causing a tiring hum from
neighbourhood generators and the latter all too common traffic jams.
The need to getaway and relax is also driven by the lack of high
quality leisure options in Nigerian cities. The Àjàlá Travel Company is
positioning itself to profit from these trends. We will meet the unmet
demand for “packaged tours” to all the leading domestic, regional
and international tourism destinations, focusing on Africa, the Middle

recognized brand known for supplying “packaged” tourism services
to residents of Nigerian cities seeking tourism services to leading
destinations in Africa, The Middle East and Asia.
