The Oyo State Government says the 11 Megawatts Ibadan Hybrid Power Project commissioned by Governor Seyi Makinde early this month has taken off.

The state’s Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Dotun Oyelade, said the whole of the Oyo State Secretariat and its environs, covering all Ministries, Departments, and Agencies, including the Secretariat Clinic, the State House of Assembly, and the Governor’s office, have started to experience uninterrupted power supply.

According to Oyelade in a statement made available to journalists, the development is a fulfillment of Makinde’s promise to commence the process of power independence for the state.

The first phase of the project, according to the statement, is a 5MW integrated power plant consisting of solar power and natural gas.

The next phase will extend uninterrupted power supply to other critical arms of government, including selected schools, Adeoyo and Ring Road Hospitals, the High Court complex, and Adamasingba Stadium, among others.

The commissioner said that the state government, through the Ministry of Energy, in partnership with a private energy conglomerate under a structured Build, Own, Operate, and Transfer (BOOT) model, is undertaking the power project.

Hello Seyi Makinde and Oyo State Government.

Congrats to your electricity project.

But on the recent video I watched of you speaking on the sharia issue in your state, I think you spoke cowardly.

Well, with all the beautiful culture and traditions of the Yoruba race, from what these overzealous lots want to start, the civilization of the Oodu'a people might eventually fall to the waiting hands of the Arabs through religion.

A case in perspective is the sad development in Ilorin where traditional worshippers, who are not even disturbing other religions, do not have freedom/right to their own festivities.

Again, congrats on your power project.

Is that one of the dividends of the Sharia law they just started?

If that is the case, then let the law quickly spread to the rest of the sad-western states

IBEDC is it a lost cause. Band A is now on power supply rotation with power outage for 24 hours straight. 1k for 3 units
