The President of the African Tourism Board, Hon. Cuthbert Ncube has dedicated his received award to the ATB Brand Ambassadors that joined and supported the event when the award was given as well as all the ATB active Ambassadors.

He said this in his Twitter handle while appreciating those behind the award.

“This award goes to our Ambassadors from the African Tourism Board. Who joined in support and celebration of the Rwanda Tourism Week 2022” and those doing great work for ATB elsewhere, he said.

You will recall that during the Rwanda Tourism Week 2022 which was organised by the Rwanda Tourism Chamber in partnership with the African Tourism Board, held in various locations in Rwanda for two weeks had many delegates both from and outside Africa attended.

One of such was an organization named Project Tourism Africa, a tourism project of a Nigerian multi-billionaire, Ned Nwoko, who has a great vision to repositioning African tourism with novel initiatives .

Presenting the award to Ncube was Chuks Anyanduba, the Project Director who flew in from Nigeria to be a part of the event where a short ceremony was held at the coveted Kigali Convention center on the sideline of the Gala Dinner of Rwanda Tourism Week 2022.

The award reads: “Award For Tourism Champion, presented to Cuthbert Ncube, in recognition of your contribution to strengthening public and private sector services and your dedication and contribution towards the upliftment of African Tourism”.

This award came at the right time when there has been an urgent need for us as Africans to recognize and appreciate individuals that are front runners of lofty initiatives aimed at enhancing and promoting the continent, especially in the tourism space.
