Five communities in Kwara State are set to receive new transformers to boost electricity power supplies in the communities.

This came just a few weeks after the administration directed the installation of 400 solar street lights and 18 transformers for various communities across the state’s sixteen local governments.
Agbaje stated that the gesture demonstrated the government’s commitment to citizens’ well-being, adding that Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq was concerned about socioeconomic development in all parts of the state.
He noted that a lack of access to electricity slows economic growth in affected areas, saying the administration will continue to address the issues steadily and urging communities that are still waiting for similar gestures to be patient while the government mobilizes resources for more.
