Ministry’s spokesperson Joseph Nkosi has confirmed the development in an interview with Zodiak Online. He said the hotel has been failing to comply with sanitation standards.

Meanwhile, according to Zodiak Online, the hotel management has been ordered to, among others, stop all operations, cancel all bookings and refund everyone who was already in the hotel.
