The Ogun State Government on Friday disclosed that Olumo Rock Tourist Centre will be closed temporarily from April 14 for renovation and facelift of the centre.

Mr Sesan Fagbayi, the state’s Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, in a statement in Abeokuta, said the renovation was to boost tourism and preserve cultural assets across the state.

Fagbayi noted that the development was part of a broader commitment to revamp one of the most iconic tourist destinations.
