Also recognized was Cuthbert Ncube of African Tourism Board.

Ikechi Uko of Akwaaba African Travel Market in a message issued to the tourism trade said “Massive recognition to share the same space with my Oga St. Ange“.

Dr. Alain St.Ange, on his part said he was humbled by the recognition received at a packed Official Dinner and thanked his hosts for this great honour.

 

 

Dr. Alain St. Ange had earlier that day paid a courtesy call on the ATCNews publisher and managing editor and Ikechi Uko, the following day, also visited the lakeside residence of the ATCNews team, both of them discussing ongoing projects and future cooperation to advance the common goals for African tourism.
