Ajayi who was represented by the Hotel’s Acting Admin Secretary, Anie Ebong said the hotel was also subjecting its staff to routine check and had heightened the attention paid ti the general sanitation of the facility.
“Considering the times we are in, hand sanitizers and are placed at strategic location around the hotel. All aimed at encouraging visitor and workers in the hotel to imbibe the culture of hand washing so as to combat easily transmissible diseases, most of which are also hand-borne.
“It is worthy for us to reiterate today that we take the issue of hygiene very seriously, as such, the proactive measures you are seeing today. All our guests are highly screened and this also covers those coming to swim at our super poolside, use our spacious gym, guest library and media facility as well as the underground night club,” he said.
