IMO GOVERNOR, UZODIMMA, BEGINS RENOVATION OF HISTORIC CONCORDE HOTEL

Governor Hope Uzodimma has started renovating the famous Concorde Hotel in Owerri as part of his plan to restore abandoned state properties.

The 245-room luxury hotel, once a pride of Imo State and the entire South-East region, had fallen into disrepair over the years.

The renovation will restore the hotel’s past glory and modernise its facilities to meet current hospitality standards. This major upgrade aims to boost tourism and create jobs for Imo residents.

When completed, the improved hotel is expected to attract more tourists and business travellers to the state, which should help grow local businesses and the Imo economy.

The project is already creating construction jobs, with more employment opportunities expected in hospitality and tourism once the hotel reopens.

Residents have welcomed the renovation. “The poor state of Concorde Hotel was embarrassing for us,” said Jonathan Amadi, an Imo indigene. “We’re glad the governor is fixing it.”

Another Imo indigene, Ebere Uzoh, noted: “Governor Hope Uzodimma has shown that he is a different kind of Governor. Some other governors would prefer to sell off the hotel, but he is renovating it. We are happy, and we thank God.”

The renovated Concorde Hotel is expected to help make Imo State a major tourist destination in Nigeria.
