This sounds fantastic! Cultural preservation is crucial for a nation’s identity, and seeing plans to create these cultural villages across the country really excites me. The collaboration between federal and state governments could bring about significant economic growth and job opportunities, especially for young people. I can’t wait to see how this plays out in Nigeria.
