You went to Benue glorified village and you're expecting a Sheraton treatment?Have you been to their laison office in Abuja?It's like a mortuary.Try enter their toilet and you realize that even roaches can have thick laps.

If not for ND oil,Benue state,Kogi and some core northern state should be used as quarantine facilities to test strange outbreaks.


My God sad shocked.... why are you this heartless, a whole State? Well bro, that's part of the issue raised, corruption has eaten deep into every institution & our morals that people in authority no longer pay attention to details anymore and nobody is asking questions

Some idiots are very easy to convince. Did he tell you the name of hotel he checked in? Makurdi is a home of good hotels, must you lie?
That axis he made mention of, there are better hotels there that he can't afford to pay, the likes of "Hally Days", Door palece and many more.
Try to verify fact before commenting.

This story get comma inside ooo, how come when you lodged into the hotel you didnt notice the missing net and windows, how can a hotel be beautiful in the day and suddenly at night has no facilities.

The girls that were singing on the stairs when you first entered, how come they were no longer there again. Maybe the generator became faulty and the lights went off hence the sudden appearance of mosquitoes. cos this your story get K leg oooooo.

Be realistic bro, do you go deep checking every details when you lodged in a hotel apart from hidden cameras or someone hiding in the wardrobes? How could i have known where the ladies went or that there was no net attached to the window.. Nigerians sha!

My point is shabby hotels are quite noticeable from the exterior view only. It is very hard for everything to look great on the outside, only for you to retire to your room at 11pm then suddenly everywhere chaos. But my thoughts are the hotel was saving fuel or an electrical fault cos it seems there being no light being the problem afterall. Also once there is no light, there wont be water cos they have to pump water with electricity.

NOTHING WORKS HERE.

Like someone stated, if not for oyel money, Benue, kogi and taraba states will not be states at all.

NOTHING WORKS IN BENUE STATE.

I served in Benue in 2012, I enjoyed the food, drinks and serenity though it was in Katsina Ala and needless to say the people are accommodating and nice. Don't know about now albeit!

Customer service is at an all time low in Nigeria .People take alot of things for granted in this country.

Your experience is not out of the ordinary, Most hotels are struggling to stay afloat due to the harsh economic realities in Nigeria.That is why you see some of the hotels practicing unimaginable things just to survive.

Power is a huge problem for the average business man in Nigeria,if you don't do your calculations well honestly you will just be working for PHCN.


You are so right, everyone is just trying to get by in this country, and that is why I ignored those calling for the name of the hotel, I won't be part of the pull down syndrome. The government should be blamed for all these because measures are not in place!

This thread was inspired by the lady who shared her experience a while ago about the heat she experienced all night in Surulere.

I had a similar experience some years back when I went to Makurdi on a routine check to supervise a project. I got to Makurdi late, so was going through the modern market road when I saw a beautiful hotel, I quickly checked in, good structure, nice furniture, neat environment and security men on standby just to mention few.

As I was being lead to my room, I saw beautiful ladies descending the steps chattering and singing, at that point I gave a sigh of relief that I'm in the right place.
My room was much spacious And every necessary gadgets for a standard room was in place with good smell. when I was left alone, i checked everywhere as thats a normal routine to avoid story that touch the heart, then later Checked into the rest room and got refreshed.

Without wasting much time, my trauma began when I tried calling the kitchen and I discovered the intercom wasn't connected, well I decided I should seize that opportunity to go on sight seeing of the environment. I really did survey the area and relaxed in some cool spot where I took 2 bottles of my usual beer and a plate of noodles as dinner.

Then i retired back to my hotel around 10pm, was I in the wrong place? The compound was dark and quiet like mortuary, I came down and ask the securities personels why there was no light, they were just mumbling inaudible things, I just left them and headed for the reception visibly angry with the aid of my phone camera to vent my anger on the receptionist. Alas, everywhere was empty and no receptionist in sight, no voice to atleast give me succor that rapture hasn't taken place.

Well, I retired back into my microwaved room, tried to open the window and realized there was no net, I ain't risking invasion of mosquitoes, I prefer heat to mosquito bite, I quickly close the window. Went to the rest room to take a shower. Alas, no water shocked, which kind wahala be this? See how I take use my hand buy trouble! I was lost in thought when the tune of mosquito jeered me back to reality.

Okay I've had enough, I wore my clothes, carried my bag and headed downstairs, it was almost 11pm at this point, I ordered the securities to open the gate, I realized they didn't even bulge, I repeated same command, Oga abeg open gate make I comot, no response. Now several thoughts started running through my mind, what if this place is a ritualist den in disguise, if I start screaming who will come to my aid as it was obvious I was the only guest that night. I was still deep in thought when the voice came, Oga no vex, we no go open this gate for you as its late already and this area is very dangerous to drive at night. shocked

I bolted back into my room with trepidation, locked the door with every available locks attached to it, I pushed the chair at the back of the door and ready for whoever that will come to say I should open. I started praying silently and reflecting on how I found myself in this avoidable mess. That was the longest night of my life as I was up all night sweating and mosquitoes feasting on my blood.

Moral of the story: Not all that glitter is gold, always endeavour to look before leaping!


Since after the Otokoto story I hardly sleep in a hotel if it's only me on the journey. I once joined touts in a Benin park which was also busy and spent the money for lodgong with them on drinks snd they gisted me through out the night and at about 4.30 am fetched me water to bath. Be wise when you are on a journey.

Lolz, you should have asked questions like is there light in the hotel and if no light, will they on generator, I have been to hotels and have not regretted staying in any of them, because I do ask questions.


You are right, asking questions go a long way. But there are some hotels when u see the structure and how organized they are during the day, you won't ask questions my brother, you will just feel you've gotten to the right place, this hotel in question is such bro!
