Built 62 years ago by the high-performing government of then Premier of defunct Eastern Region, the now-late Dr Michael Okpara, but left derelict by several successive administrations, the iconic Hotel Presidential Enugu has been reconstructed and modernized by Enugu State Governor, Dr Peter Mbah, and has thrown its doors open for business.
Picture shows the mammoth crowd at the hotel’s unveiling, with a section of the hotel building in the background. Gov. Mbah waves to the pleased crowd.
