Briefing Government House correspondents shortly after the meeting, the Commissioner of Information, Mr. CHARLES UDOH, explained that the decision of government to mandate the Information Ministry with the task, was to ensure coordination of those publications.
The Information Commissioner mentioned that the EXCO has further approved the commencement of immediate renovation of Ibom Hotels and Resort, noting that the initiative was to give a face- lift to the edifice while boosting tourism and revenue generation to the state.
He said the renovation was to be carried out in phases, adding that the Commissioner of Culture and Tourism, Mr. ORMAN ESIN, has been mandated to put out a strategy and plan for the commencement of the refurbishing project.
