1.1 Background of the Study
Lere Local Government Area in Kaduna State is home to various cultural heritage sites, including ancient landmarks, historical monuments, and traditional sites that reflect the rich history of the region. Despite their cultural significance, many of these heritage sites are underappreciated and at risk of being lost due to neglect or lack of awareness.
