Eze added that major tourist centres – Ogbunike Cave in Oyi and the Ogbaukwu Caves and Waterfalls in Owerre Ezukala, Orumba South Local Government Area, were also approved for refurbishment.


He said: “The Obiano administration would, in its first 100 days, take steps to reposition tourism to enable the state mine the potential therein.

“These tourist centres will receive immediate attention with the construction of access roads to them.”
