The conversation and call to policymakers in Nigeria to make tourism more economically viable, resilient and less dependent on crude oil production has for some time been raised by pundits from diverse intellectual and professional backgrounds. .     The crux of their charge is for the state to pay more attention to the Non-Oil sector.
