Tourism: Why You Need To Pay A Visit To Ikogosi Warm Spring

The Ikogosi Resort Centre Managing Director, Chief Ayo Ademiluwa, has declared that Ikogosi Warm Spring is more than just a resort centre but also has many wonders of nature divinely bestowed on the area with many medicinal leaves and strobes around the place.

The Managing Director, who is also the High Chief Asaoye of the community made this known while fielding questions from newsmen in Ikogosi Ekiti

According to Chief Ademiluwa, the warm spring has more than 65 different trees that are of high medicinal potency, while the water has natural power to cure headache and some other ailments.

Chief Asaoye of Ikogosi said, contrary to people’s believe that the water has just one meeting point which is the confluence of cold and warm, discovery has shown that there are more meeting points which include the confluence of warm and warmer, cold and colder, and the popular warm and cold springs.

He said part of the mysteries that abound in the area is that all the varying degrees of temperature of the waters take their source from the same place, thereby making it second to none in the whole world.

The MD of the centre who described the warm spring as a large deposit of untapped gold mine, said the facility could become a cash cow for Ekiti State if well harnessed.

He recalled that during the first tenure of Dr. John Kayode Fayemi, the place witnessed a turnaround from what it used to be which attracted more tourist patronage from all around the world.

Chief Ademiluwa who is a childhood friend to the Governor-elect expressed confidence in the ability of Mr. Abiodun Oyebanji to change the narrative at the tourist centre, describing the Governor-elect as exceptionally brilliant, extremely loyal and focused, stressing that those are the attributes needed for good governance.

The MD therefore called on Ekiti people to show understanding and patience during the course of the administration so that dividends of democracy will get to them.
