McDons Hotel Boss Lauds PFIPC on Steps for Economic Revival

The Chairman/CEO, McDons Skye Hotel, Owerri, Dr. Modestus Chigo Akweke, has lauded the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council (PFIPC), a non-statutory body that provides advice to the President on economic policy, on steps for the revival of the economy.

Akweke, who stated this during the ‘Future Hospitality Summit Africa’ held recently in Cape Town, South Africa, said “this is the first kind of an independent council composed of prominent economists and technical experts from various sectors needed to revive our economy and help in attracting foreign investors into our country.”

“I was impressed that the Director General, PFIPC, Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi, led his formidable team to attend the Future Hospitality Summit Africa (FSH Africa) held in Cape Town, South Africa, recently with the aim of meeting with various investors and woos them with government policies to Nigeria,” he added.

Akweke further said that he has the assurance that the in-depth discussions the PFIPC helmsman had with various investors at the forum will soon be yielding positive results on global and domestic economic developments in Nigeria in due course.

“With the participation of the PFIPC at FHS Africa, it was a true reflection that the council is more focused on attracting and facilitating foreign investments and partnerships in Nigeria’s hospitality sector. They have set the ball rolling and aim to create a supportive environment for foreign investors, ensuring they have the same rights and protections as local businesses in our country,” Akweke said.

The Future Hospitality Summit Africa (FH Africa), has been the launchpad for hospitality investment in Africa, driving growth, connecting visionaries, and transforming the continent’s tourism and hospitality landscape
