Abia State just decided to track every single hotel guest officially. The government inked a deal with a private company to create a verified register for all hospitality spots. Commissioner Matthew Ekwuribe from the Tourism Ministry said the move aims for better oversight of these businesses. He explained the partnership should lower risks for customers and build traveler trust.
Ekwuribe noted the registry is a first step before passing broader tourism legislation. A key security rule will mandate proper identification from all guests during check-in. People will need to present valid ID cards before getting logged in at any hotel. The commissioner stated these measures are necessary for safety across the industry. The initiative forms part of a joint effort between the state and the private firm.
