This was announced on the official Twitter page of the Ghana Presidency which explained the renovation forms part of a National Tourism plan.

This project is expected to bring enriched access to Ghana’s tourism market, better provision of tourism products and services as well as the upgrading of skills in the labour force in the tourism, arts, and culture sector.

It is also to ensure improved coordination with the private sector for job creation and economic expansion.

This comes a few days after the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture announced the closure of the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park for upgrade works.
