The Golden Tulip Hotel Agulu stands as a shining example of what vision and collaboration can achieve.
Once a neglected gem, this hotel has undergone a remarkable transformation since 2017, when the state government partnered with Golden Tulip West Africa Limited to manage the facility.
Under former Governor Peter Obi’s administration, the hotel was built and access roads were provided, prompting new residential buildings by individual efforts, bringing life to the previously rustic village.
His successor, Governor Willie Obiano, further consolidated and elevated the hotel, with Prof Chukwuma Soludo, now the current governor, serving as Chairman of the Hotel’s Board.
As Governor Soludo embarks on his tenure, we urge him to build on this progress and propel the Golden Tulip Hotel Agulu to new heights. Specifically, we recommend:1Establishing an on-site clinic with telemedicine capabilities to provide essential medical services.
2. Landscaping and beautifying the expansive premises to create a breathtaking atmosphere.
3. Developing the adjacent lake into a tourism hub, complementing the hotel’s offerings.
By implementing these proposals, Governor Soludo can cement the Golden Tulip Hotel Agulu’s status as a premier tourist destination, showcasing Anambra State’s potential for growth and development.
Let us not allow political whims to undermine the progress made.
Let us unlock the hotel’s full potential now
