The Institute of Hospitality, UK – Nigeria Region, has expressed concern over the Federal Capital Territory Administration’s plan to register, license, and grade hotels and other tourism establishments operating in Abuja.
The Chairman of the institute, Professor Wasiu Babalola, called for clarifications on the provisions of the new NTDA Act and the ‘Tourism Act’ of the FCTA, which the FCTA said it was relying on to undertake the exercise so as to avoid conflict that would adversely affect hospitality and tourism businesses that operate in the FCT.
Babalola highlighted that the Nigerian Tourism Development Authority’s primary responsibility, as outlined in the new act, was to promote the growth and development of the country’s tourism industry, and urging the government to prioritise the sector.
