The Ekiti Fellows (ETF) has commended the Ekiti State Government for taking a bold step in enhancing the tourism industry in the state by mandating hotels to register with the Bureau of Tourism.
According to ETF, the move is a significant milestone towards ensuring the safety, security, and protection of hotels, guests, and lodgers in the state.
In a release signed by Prince Rotimi Awelewa, President ETF, the association noted that “We are delighted by the State Government’s decision to regulate the hotel and hospitality sector. This move is crucial for the growth and sustainability of tourism in Ekiti State. It is imperative that guests and lodgers feel safe, secure, and protected during their stay in our beautiful state.”
The ETF believes that for Ekiti State to truly flourish in tourism, it is essential that the hotel and hospitality sector be sanitized and regulated. By mandating hotels to register with the Bureau of Tourism, the state government is taking a step in the right direction towards fostering a conducive environment for both tourists and locals.
The ETF urged all hotels in Ekiti State to comply with this directive and ensure that they are registered with the Bureau of Tourism Development and also join the Association of Hoteliers in the state to do the same.
“By doing so, hotel owners will not only contribute to the growth of tourism in the state, but also prioritize the safety and well-being of their guests.”
