A THREE-HUNDRED million hydro-power station, named “O’POWER” and located at Ikeji-Ile in Oriade Local Council Area, has been initiated by the Osun State government.
The Commissioner for Regional Integration and Special Duties, Mr. Bashiru Ajibola, disclosed this to journalists after the State Executive Council meeting in Osogbo, the state capital.
He said when the project is completed, it would generate enough electricity for the Ilesa-axis of the state for a start.
Ajibola explained that the sum of N180 million had been released for the project and work had started in earnest on the project.
In a statement, the Director of Bureau of Communications and Strategy in the Governor’s Office, Semiu Okanlawon, said the project is linked with another scheme considered at the council meeting, which is the establishment of International Modern Market at Owena Ijesa.
He said the town, being the boundary of Osun and Ondo states and the traditional market for food produce, had caught the attention of the current administration.

Romans 5:5 says, Hope maketh not ashamed.
ReplyDeleteFellow Nigerians lets not give up our hope that God is well able to make Nigeria be the best of country in the world. There is a reason why we are Nigerians. Hope lost, implies loss of faith in God to change Nigeria / Nigerians, loss of courage to pray to God, loss of morals for immoral acts, loss of normalcy for abnormality, etc the least is endless.
Isaiah 3:10 says ‘it is WELL with the righteous’. We are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
Nigeria will survive and gain back ALL her loss glory, in Jesus name, amen.
Satan the devil is our common enemy. Let’s get rid of his manipulation and be in the liberty that Jesus proffered!
Thanks
