National chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Iyorchia Ayu, has said the party’s national secretariat will be a veritable revenue source if work on the project is completed.
He stated this during an inspection tour of the party facilities in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on Tuesday.
He said,“After so many years, we have lost a lot of revenue. The building is on 11 floors- two underground floors, and nine floors off the ground.
“The PDP will occupy three floors, and the rest will be commercialized to generate revenue for the party. And this is the Central Business District. So not completing it means we have lost a lot of revenue.
“The structure is complete. The briefing I have is that it is actually getting to finishing stages, and most of the critical components on ground have been moved for safe keeping.
“At Wadata Plaza, we are challenged by a lack of adequate Office space. So the party will now discuss with all stakeholders of the party and explore the necessary avenue for completing this edifice.
“We believe that apart from the critical holders in the party, we’ll look for other ways advised by experts to look into commercial considerations. I think it is possible to look for ways in the commercial sector to complete this building.”
