Wife of Ondo State Governor, Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, has said the Bemore Summer Boot Camp for year 2022, slated to hold from August 21 to September 3 will be the biggest tourist attraction in the state in the near future.
The first lady said the Bemore Empowered Girls’ Foundation is aimed at empowering girls.
According to a statement made available to Journalists in Akure on Monday by her Media Adviser, Mary Agidi, she gave the projection at Government House, Alagbaka, Akure, while interacting with the planning committee for Bemore Summer Boot Camp for year 2022.
The governor’s wife said: “I have mentioned it elsewhere and I am reiterating that, at the end of the day, Bemore summer boot camp will be the biggest tourist attraction in Ondo State. Very soon, during summer time, everybody will want to bring his or her daughter to Ondo State for Bemore boot camp, which is good for both the state and government”.
Betty Akeredolu who enthused that the permanent site for Bemore boot camp has been procured and plans for effective construction are ongoing, stressed that the impacts of the project is felt nationally.

She explained that it is better to situate the permanent site of the boot camp in Ondo State when one considers what goes into the annual summer boot camp in terms of planning, organisation and logistics.
Her words: “We had considered holding the Bemore boot camp in other parts of the country for the benefits of citizens living in other geo-political zones in the country, given the fact that its impact is felt all over the country.
“At the end of the day, it was decided that we should concentrate on holding it in our own Jerusalem, which is Ondo State. And this decision is even better when you consider the factors involved, including planning, organisation and the logistics. Those who desire to benefit from the programme can always come to Ondo State.”
