Oyebanji says provision of infrastructure necessary for economic well-being

… Commissions electricity project

Ekiti State Governor, Mr Biodun Oyebanji has restated the commitment of his administration to continue to embark on projects that will serve as the fulcrum of future development in the state, adding that provision of critical infrastructure to enhance economic wellbeing of the people is his priority.

Governor Oyebanji stated this in Ado-Ekiti on Tuesday while commissioning the Oshodi electrification project. He said he recognized the significance of electricity to achieve radical development as it powers businesses, supports education, improves healthcare delivery, and enhances the overall quality of life in communities.

The Governor, who was represented by the Secretary to the State Governor, Prof. Habibat Adubiaro, said the project would be a game changer to residents of the community as tends to enhance their economic activities and improved opportunities for further expansion.

While commending the people of Oshodi community for their patience, cooperation and selfless support during the implementation of the project, the Governor also acknowledge the Ministry of Infrastructure and Public Utilities and all other stakeholders who contributed to the success of the initiative.

“This event is yet another testimony to the commitment of our administration to provide the critical infrastructure that enhances the welfare and economic well-being of our people. We recognize that electricity is essential for development. It powers businesses, supports education, improves healthcare delivery, and enhances the overall quality of life in communities.”

“With the completion of this project, also the community will experience renewed economic activity and better living conditions. The artisans, traders, and entrepreneurs will now have improved opportunities to expand while our children can study in the more conducive environments.

Earlier, the Special Advisor to the Governor on Power Infrastructure, Engr. Philip Atere, who described the project as a huge investment that takes only a passionate mind like that of Governor Oyebanji to attend to, stressed the need to continue to encourage and motivate rural dwellers with social amenities that stop them from migrating to urban centres.

Engr. Atere commended the Governor for his radical investment in the power sector that went through virtually all the local government areas of the state and supplying electricity to communities that have been in darkness for upward of fifteen years.

In their separate goodwill messages, the Chairmen of Ado North Local Council Development area, Hon. Tokunbo Gbadamosi and her Ado Central counterpart, Hon. Toyin Ojo urged residents of the area to take ownership of electricity transformers and other consumables to prevent theft and vandalism to ensure the durability of the infrastructure and its benefits to the community.

They added that by protecting the government projects, communities can maintain reliable power supply for economic activities to create sustainable livelihoods.

And it's the same infrastructure money una like to chop.

Too much bad roads in Ekiti state. I spend about 5hours or more in that state while travelling the last time.

It was a nightmare!

Government got a lot to do!

Nobody can tell me otherwise; Governor Oyebanji is either the new owner of Nairaland or a relative of Seun.
He is the most "topiced" person on the FrontPage this year aside from the President....

Hope he is a doing a good job!

Simply earning his wages while damaging Oyebanji the more especially because the figures as he presents them don’t add up! The Yorubas call that “ojoro”!

no wonder. Haba. For all ex governors to endorse him it means he is serving them and not the people.

This man is an audio gov
He's always in the news yet no tangible thing is happening in his state
Just talk and empty lipservice to development
While settling every politician of note in the state
Look at this news now
The only pictures we're seeing is the aso ebi of his minions. No pictures of the project being commissioned whether na i- better- pass- my-neighbour
Even the write-up does not describe the project. How many MW? How many people is it servicing?

With a scanty budget of 30 trillion naira or 17-20 billion dollars among 230mlion people before corruption sets in?

EKITI STATE IS NOT SELF SUFFICIENT ECONOMICALLY.. ANOTHER LIABILITY STATE LIKE YOBE JIGAWA ETC,.. EKITI SHOULD BE MERGED WITH ONDO STATE.
