Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq at the weekend approved immediate rehabilitation of three major works across the state's senatorial districts.

"The three are the Lafiagi Waterworks (Kwara North); Igbaja Waterworks (Kwara South); and Asa Dam Waterworks (Kwara Central)," according to a statement on Saturday by Rafiu Ajakaye, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor.

The statement said the three water works are either in bad condition or not working at optimal capacity, and have been recommended for rehabilitation by the Ministry of Water Resources in line with the administration's commitment to tackle water scarcity in the state.

"Consequently, the Governor has approved the release of N48,548,720 for their rehabilitation," the statement added.

The Lafiagi Waterworks is currently running skeletal services owing to the damage to four of its five boreholes, the intake and transfer pumps, the statement said.

It said the facilities in Igbaja had since broken down as a result of poor electricity supply and the lack of proper rehabilitation..

The statement said the Asa Dam, which services the entire Ilorin, works at half its design capacity, adding that the intervention would boost its working capacity.

"The Governor remains committed to his desire to have water running in the state. This has started happening in certain areas, thanks to his interventions, but the idea is that every part of the state should have access to potable water," it said.

Nice move

48.5million for this wonderful project!

meanwhile former governor of Bauchi used 2.5billion to bury people in his state!

Good. Honestly I really hope Governor Abdulrazaq and all the new Governors succeed. It's about time Nigerians start enjoying dividends of Democracy.

Impressive!

Any government that has the interest of the masses at heart is the real deal.

Ondo state too is trying in this regard.

Kudos!

Saraki finally cried enough for everyone to have their bath

This is what is called governance. continue this way and be paying civil servants.

His ATM card

Otoge is the greatest thing to ever happen to Kwara State.

Active governor. His actions are speaking louder than his words on like the useless governor from IMO state busy witchhunting his political opponent

I smell progress in kwara after donkey years of stagnation.

Thank you. Working governor. Some will rather place tax on the bore hole sank by individuals.

And sanwo olu is still fighting danfo drivers in Lagos State..
Issokay,

Las Las, we go dy alright

That is our noble son. We knew him before voting for him. We knew his family and and his history. We are happy that he has not disappointed us. Never again will generational looters like Sarathief rule my grandma's state again, never. O to gee.

The man has touring since he assumed duty to know what is on ground ..it is good to see things for himself so as not to be deceived by sycophants

Cool

And some stupid Imolites are still making excuses for that Mbaise man called Ihedioha.

Since Ihedioha resumed office, he's been behaving like a typical Mbaise man and fighting everyone.

He's just a pitiable character.

Kwara ni walaahi kwara ni ipinle lojinna Sina tosunmalujanna kwara ni,

Omo kwara owoyinda ejekarowoyin ooo.

Kwara is getting better.
