Kwara LGAs, Meeting Citizens' Expectations - Bata

The Kwara State Government has once again rated the performances at the Local Government Areas of the State as commendable, meeting the expectations of citizens at the grass roots through impactful projects.

The Commissioner for Local Government, Chieftancy Affairs and Community Development, Hon. Abubakar Abdullahi Bata made the remark yesterday at the Ekiti and Oke - Ero project monitoring sites, respectively.

The Commissioner was full of praises for all the Councils for their tremendous achievements, which cut across several sectors, based on requests from the communities. He disclosed that Local Governments in the State have gone beyond payment of salaries only, but they are now better strengthened to live up to the expectations of citizens by ensuring  their constituents enjoy quality and impactful projects.
In his remarks, the Executive Chairman of Ekiti, Hon. Awelewa Olawale Gabriel disclosed that most projects executed under the second phase, stretch through several communities, especially in the construction of  bridges, which are quite capital intensive. He emphasized his desire to meet the yearnings of his people and promised to deliver more  interventions in the next phase of project executions.

Also in his remarks, the Executive Chairman of Oke - Ero, Hon. James Fadipe, thanked the Executive Governor of Kwara State, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq for ensuring that Local Government activities and decisions  solely rest on their officials, thereby granting the Councils, true autonomy.

Among the projects executed in Ekiti were; the ongoing construction of a bridge and a culvert along Epe - Opin - Owa - Atun Road, complete rehabilitation and restoration of electricity to Obbo Aiyegunle and Etan, ongoing opening, grading and construction of a bridge and culvert at Osi, among others.
