Lagos Community Gets Power After 21 Years Of Darkness

The joy of the people of Agura Community in Ikorodu, Lagos, knew no bounds on Wednesday when light shone for the first time in 21 years.
The dream of the community came to reality when the member representing Ikorodu Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Mrs. Abike Dabiri-Erewa, inaugurated the transformers she donated to them.

Beside Agura, eight other communities benefited from the lawmaker's gift of 15 transformers, which had already been installed.
Other beneficiary communities were Ijede, Ikorodu, Solomade, Imota, Aga, Mowonla, Igbonpa, Igangbe and Okoitan.

The communities also benefited from no fewer than 15 solar-powered bore holes.

Chairman of the Community Development Association in Agura, Chief Saliu Erubami, described Dabiri-Erewa as a worthy ambassador.

Erubami said, "It is when our daughter (Dabiri-Erewa) was voted to represent us that we started to have the dividends of democracy again. We have never regretted voting for her and her Party."

Also, a community leader in Igbonpa, Pastor Olohunlomotito Stephen, said, "Dabiri-Erewa has proven beyond reasonable doubt that she is worthy of celebration. She is seeing to the welfare of our community in terms of infrastructure."

To crown their appreciation to her, people of Okoitan community named of their longest roads as Abike Dabiri-Erewa Road.
