Department of Hospitality Management
ABSTRACT
This work was intended to investigate the extent to which
hospitality industry contributes to the economy in both potential
and in real term. Sufficient data was collected, analyzed and
tested using the Chi square statistical method out of the 80
sampled stakeholders in the industry. The study found that the
hospitality industry contributes veritably to economic development
of Nigeria and reshaping of her national image in the diaspora. It
was gathered from the study that a positive correlation exits
between the hospitality industry and the GDP of the nation. From
the findings the researcher recommends enhanced investment in
the sector and provision of adequate infrastructure and enabling
environment if the industry’s full potentials will be properly
harnessed towards economic development of the nation.
