The management of Anchorage Leisures Limited, owners of the Radisson Blu Anchorage Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos has confirmed the commencement of renovation activities at the hotel. It, however, confirmed that its present focus was to ensure that the renovation exercise was finished at the targeted time so that it could resume operations.
In a statement by Anchorage Leisures Limited, all pre-renovation planning had been concluded while implementation would commence immediately. “We have successfully relocated guests into alternative facilities and all entitlements have been paid to the disengaged staff”.
Commenting on the protests by some members of staff, the company noted that those who protested must have misconstrued the intention of the management. The statement reiterated that the hotel, temporarily, shut down business operations strictly because of the magnitude of the renovation and not because it had issues with the workers, as insinuated.
