Ogun Govt to shut down Olumo Rock

The Ogun State Government has announced the temporary closure of the Olumo Rock Tourist Centre for renovation and facelift, beginning April 14.

This was disclosed in a statement issued on Friday by the Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, Mr. Sesan Fagbayi, in Abeokuta.

He stated that the renovation is aimed at boosting tourism and preserving the state’s cultural heritage.

According to Fagbayi, the move is part of a broader effort to revamp one of Nigeria’s most iconic tourist attractions. He added that the facelift would enhance the experience of the over 70,000 visitors Olumo Rock receives annually and improve safety measures at the site.
