Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun inaugurated some motorised boreholes and toilets on Monday to help provide adequate and hygienic water for residents.

Mr Adeleke, represented by the Commissioner for Budget and National Planning, Moruf Adeleke, said it would go a long way in alleviating the water supply challenges and providing alternative places for defecation.

The benefitting communities are Molodo, Sabo, Ile-funfun, and TAC Grammar School, Modakeke.

He commended the communities for making the project a reality through their collective decision and responsibilities.

“The inauguration of motorised boreholes and VIP toilets is just the beginning of better things to come. We urge you all to support Governor Adeleke in order to enjoy more dividends of democracy,” he said.

He appealed to the benefitting communities to safeguard the projects and make adequate use of them to benefit all.

Also, Funmi Abokede, the general manager, Osun Community and Social Development Agency (CSDA), commended Mr Adeleke for releasing funds for the construction of the projects.

Ms Abokede said the two projects inaugurated by the government were part of campaign promises made to the communities to reduce the area’s hardship.

In their separate remarks, Adefioye Bakare, the chairman of the community project and mobilisation committee in Molodo and Adeyinmi Ismail, the vice chairman of the Molodo community, commended the governor for making the projects a reality.
