A multi-billion naira entertainment centre named ‘Kada Plaza’ and owned by the Igbinedion family opened for business in Benin City, the Edo state capital on Monday.
The centre has five cinema halls, a digital projector, a Chinese restaurant, a dinner hall, a coffee shop, a banking hall, a restaurant and local kitchen, a games arcade, sports bar, business shops, snooker and tennis complex, Bureau de change and telephones shops.
The Esama of Benin, Chief Gabriel Osawaru Igbinedion while declaring the centre open, called on Edo people to ensure that a conducive atmosphere is created at all times in the state so as to attract investment that would enhance employment opportunities.
According to the Esama, “let me say one thing, the Igbinedion family has always been looking for ways to make the Edo people happy. We could have put this investment in any other place around the world, but irrespective of tongue-wagging, we still mean well for Edo people. We will continue to lead while people follow.
When people are asleep, we are thinking, what next should make people comfortable? This is one example, each and every one of us has travelled out, as soon as you bring your children anywhere, London or where, you can be rest assured there is no place that is better than this place. Therefore, the hand that created this place means well.
“You can now bring your children to an environment of security, a place your people can come and you have rest of mind that your children are safe. All of us will appreciate that you use this place to the glory of God. What a wonderful day. What a wonderful experience. If you were me, how would you feel?
“I am very happy today, this is one of my happiest days in life. My birthday still continues”.
Also speaking, former first lady, Mrs Eki Igbinedion said “this place is for the whole family, and we are glad to have brought it home to Edo State. Your family can be together, and enjoy.”
She stated that every member of the family has been thought of when the conception of the centre was done, and for relaxation and holistic enjoyment, adding that Kada Plaza is the right place to be.
