Governor Dapo Abiodun has expressed the readiness of his administration to resuscitate the moribund Gateway Hotel, Ota.
The governor described the current state of the once viable hotel as an eyesore, saying something urgent must be done to address the situation.
He spoke on Wednesday while responding to the presentations by the officials of the Ministry of Housing and related agencies at the Treasury Board Meeting.
Abiodun, who decried the total abandonment of the hotel despite its strategic location, said his administration was poised to rehabilitate and bring it back to its former state, as demanded by the people of Ota, during the town hall meeting on the 2023 appropriation budget.

The state helmsman, however, expressed displeasure that the hotel which was once a pride of the state is now a den for criminals, directing the Ministry of Housing to include the total rehabilitation of the edifice in its budget proposal for necessary action.
Meanwhile, Abiodun has disclosed that his administration will turn the sod of $800 million Special Agro-Processing Zone to be sited at the Agro-Cargo Airport in Ilisan-Remo, on Friday.
Abiodun said that the project which would be executed by Arise Integrated Company, would be the biggest investment in Nigeria as it would provide between 15,000 to 20,000 jobs for the people.
