Dear Esteemed Leaders of the Tourism Community,

It is with a heart full of hope and a spirit deeply inspired by our shared passion for this extraordinary industry that I humbly offer myself to serve as President of the Association of Tourism Practitioners of Nigeria (ATPN).

Together, we have witnessed the heights tourism can reach when driven by vision, unity, and relentless determination, but we have also seen the shadows where ATPN has fallen silent, where its once powerful voice and influence have faded.

Today, I am reaching out to you, my fellow leaders and visionaries, to join me in a collective mission to revive and reposition ATPN to the greatness it was destined for.

The world around us is transforming rapidly, and we have a unique opportunity—and indeed, a duty—to reshape the future of Nigerian tourism.

We cannot afford to stand still or wait for someone else to bring the change we long to see. Our beloved industry is calling out for courageous and committed leadership, and I know that together, we can answer that call.

When I had the privilege of serving as the Southwest Chairman, I committed myself wholly to breathing life back into our organization.

Through collaboration, hard work, and unwavering faith in our collective vision, we accomplished what many had doubted was possible. We uplifted ATPN in our region, delivering results that resonated across the sector. Now, the opportunity to amplify that energy on a national scale stands before us, and I am ready to give my all once again—but this time, I cannot do it alone.

We are getting older, and the years may have added wisdom to our souls, but they have also brought an urgency to our purpose. What we leave behind matters now more than ever.

Our industry needs us—not as spectators, but as active, vibrant stewards who will champion innovation, invest in our youth, and ensure that Nigerian tourism takes its rightful place on the global stage.

Imagine a future where ATPN is a hub of inspiration and progress, where our legacy ignites dreams and fuels destinies in the tourism sector.

Our vision is not just a bright one; it is a necessary one. It is a future where our communities thrive on sustainable tourism practices, where our cultural heritage is preserved with pride, and where our nation’s unique wonders become the stories that the world can’t wait to experience.

I am calling on you, my fellow trailblazers, to stand with me once more. Let us give our all to a cause that has the power to transform Nigeria. Let us unite our skills, our influence, and our passion to bring forth a new dawn for ATPN. With your support, I know we can build a movement that will leave an indelible mark, not only for us but for generations to come.

Together, the future of Nigerian tourism is indeed bright. Let’s embrace it, shape it, and lead it—together.

With gratitude and determination,
Omo-Oba Adetunji Femi Fadina JP
