World Tourism Day Nigeria – Badagry Beach Clean Up & Tree Planting

Nene-Uwa Hub Ltd in partnership with TVP Adventures and a host of other tourism and environmental enthusiasts would be partaking in a special BEACH CLEAN-UP & TREE PLANTING event to commemorate WORLD TOURISM DAY 2017 and to correlate with this year’s theme which is “SUSTAINABLE TOURISM – A TOOL FOR DEVELOPMENT”. On Saturday 30th September 2017, they would be hosting a volunteer BEACH CLEAN-UP & TREE PLANTING which will be held at the “POINT OF NO RETURN”, located at Badagry Slave Trade, Badagry, Lagos State. The idea is designed to create awareness of the benefits of being ECO-FRIENDLY and also in aiding the sustenance of tourist destinations by reducing environmental impact by being guardians of our natural resources. As one of Nigeria’s prominent tourism landmarks, this beach is the ideal location to carry out a campaign for sustainable tourism. The shoreline is eroding quickly and the white-sand beach is littered with trash from visitors as well as wash-back from the ocean. On the day of the event, they plan for 40 tourism and environmental enthusiasts to join Badagry local residents to clean up the beach. We would also be planting coconut trees along the shoreline as a way of leaving our footprint of impact. Do kindly contact Nnenna (08052149846) or send an email to  nenafakoyasmith@gmail.com, or Funmi (08059648876) for more information on how you can participate or contribute towards this upcoming commemorative event. Thank you.
