It also offers choice drinks including local palm wine, brandy, Whiskey etc., little wonder Mecvilla Executive Garden is described as “Experience the Epitome of Comfort!
Eze Nwoye explained that Mecvilla Executive Garden is not a new name in Ejigbo. He recalled that few years ago, it was demolished by the Lagos Task Force when it was located at Mechanic Village.
“But today, this is what we have in remembrance of the old. We are relaunching today as it was formally opened partially last year.”
“Today, I am handing over this place to my son. He takes over, so we are celebrating that. We are creating awareness for our customers to know that Mecvilla is back uniquely with good food, lodging, event center and all sorts of entertainment, drinks and dinner at affordable prices. A professional chef runs this place. This place is on Google and you can read about it anywhere in the world.”
On why he ventured into hospitality business and other businesses, Eze Nwoye explained that since 1980 he has trained many people in businesses and they are doing well before he ventured into hospitality business. He stated that he has been creating job opportunities for youths by engaging in things that will create job opportunities, which the hotel business offers.
He pleaded with respected leaders to create employment opportunities for the unemployed Nigerians youths wherever they find ourselves instead of living false lifestyles.
“Creating jobs is my priority for now as a committed community leader” Nwoye said.
The wife, Lolo Chika Nwoye, collaborated what her husband, Eze Nwoye had said and explained that in the next five years, Mecvilla Executive Garden will be competing with five star hotels.
“It is one of a kind in Ejigbo, Lagos. We offer comfortability, 24 hours light and local/ continental dishes” she stated.
The son, Uchenna Nwoye, who is now the Managing Director of Mecvilla Executive Garden, explained that he recently took over management about three months ago and has changed the place.
“I am Eze Nwoye’s first son. I took over as a professional chef to manage the place. Inspite of my other engagements, I am aware of the problem Mecvilla faces, which prompted me to leave where I am and see what we can do here.”
“In three months, I have observed, learned and changed certain things and I can assure you there are improvements so far so good. Customer service is now excellent and once your clients are happy with your service, business grows. Challenges have been there like constant power supply, bad road network but I make it worthwhile and make sure there are reasons to come here.”
“I just want growth and consistency, making this place an escape from the chaos of life, having a good time and comfortability. I can guarantee that if you take your time and come to Mecvilla Executive Garden, you will be satisfied and happy. The members of staff are trained everyday and our food services is excellent. Like I said, I have gone through training myself as a professional chef. Our rooms are all new and well maintained. Kitchen Services are good, stable light and cold drinks. This anniversary is meant to stamp our presence in the community and let the people know that we offer the best services” Uchenna Nwoye stated.
