(a)Draw an outline map of Nigeria.

On the map, mark and name:

    (i) three natural tourist sites;

    (ii) one town in any of the three areas shown in 5 (a) (i).

 

(b)Explain three factors that hinder the development of tourism in Nigeria.

 

(c)In which four ways is the tourism industry important to the economy of Nigeria?

Observation

This question was popularly answered by the candidates. The drawing of the sketch map was a problem to some of the candidates who located the natural tourist sites in the poorly drawn outline. While quite a good proportion of the candidates who answered the question were able to list out the points on the factors that hinder the development of tourism in Nigeria, they mostly did not fully explain their points to secure full marks. Many of the candidates who took the examination were able to explain the ways in which tourism is important to the economy of Nigeria.
