The launch, held on June 4, 2026, signifies a major milestone in Presken Hotel’s decade-long journey of hospitality excellence and social impact.

Speaking during the launch, the Managing Director of Presken Hotels, Mr. Pius Obaje, stated that the organization has consistently undertaken impactful outreach and humanitarian activities over the years. According to him, the formal establishment of the Presken Cares is a strategic step towards institutionalizing the hotel’s commitment to social responsibility.
“Over the years, Presken Hotels has quietly supported various charitable causes and community projects. Today, we are proud to officially launch Presken Cares, which will focus on touching lives, providing assistance, and restoring hope to the less privileged and vulnerable members of society,” Obaje said.

He noted that the initiative aligns with the vision of the Chairman, Mr. Kadiri Momoh, whose leadership has guided the hotels group’s growth over the past decade while emphasizing the importance of giving back to the society.
As part of activities marking the launch, Mr. Obaje led members of the management team on outreach visits to several beneficiary communities and institutions across Lagos.
The team visited Bethesda Home for the Blind in Surulere, Little Saints Orphanage in Ogudu and the Makoko community in Yaba, where they donated various food items, household essentials, and other relief materials aimed at supporting residents and improving their welfare.
The beneficiaries expressed appreciation for the gesture, describing it as timely and impactful. The donations brought smiles to many faces and reinforced the importance of corporate organizations partnering with communities to address social challenges.
The launch of Presken Cares underscores Presken Hotel’s commitment to sustainable community development and social inclusion.
Beyond hospitality services, the organization seeks to create lasting positive change by supporting education, healthcare, welfare programs, and other initiatives that empower vulnerable groups.
As Presken Hotels celebrates ten years of growth and excellence in the hospitality industry, the introduction of Presken Cares marks the beginning of a new chapter, one driven by compassion, community impact, and a shared commitment to building a better society.
The dual celebration of the Chairman’s birthday and the hotel’s 10th anniversary provided a fitting occasion to reaffirm the organization’s values and dedication to making a difference where it matters most.
“With Presken Cares now officially launched, the hotels chain has set a strong foundation for expanding its social impact and ensuring that its success continues to create opportunities, hope, and support for communities across Nigeria”, Obaje concluded.
