Kwara State Begins Reconstruction of Patigi Regatta Motel to Boost Tourism
According to a news report from This Day, the Kwara State Government has commenced the reconstruction of the long-abandoned Patigi Regatta Motel in Patigi town, marking a new frontier in the state’s aggressive tourism drive.
The reconstruction work is set to span eight months and will include shopping areas and an expansive parking space, as stated by the Commissioner for Business, Innovation and Technology (BIT), Damilola Yusuf.
The motel will feature standard rooms, VIP suites, a conference hall, restaurants, and courtyards, among other amenities.
“We have already handed over the site to the contractor,” she added.
The Patigi Regatta Motel is located along Kpada Road (Federal Road) and 1500m from Kusogi Park in Patigi town of Kwara State.
The government embarks on the total overhaul and remodelling of the existing structures to expand the tourism potentials of the state, generate jobs, and improve the current revenue generation drive of the state.
The commissioner said the facility would come handy once the Annual Patigi Regatta and fishing festival is revived for recreational purposes in that axis of the state.
