Represented by the Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, Ugochi Madueke, Mbah stated that clearing of bushes in the premises and surroundings of the hotel had started, urging the people of the state to be patient with his government.
“If you noticed, you will see that recently the Hotel Presidential was cleared. All the bushes and trees were cut. We are working seriously on the hotel, and very soon, you will see that work will start there. Authoritatively, before the next six months, you will see work commence there, and even at the abandoned international conference centre,” he stated.
