The Ogun State governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Hon. Ladi Adebutu, has provided a borehole for residents of Kemta community in Abeokuta through the party’s House of Representatives candidate for Abeokuta South Federal Constituency, Chief Toyin Amuzu.
The project was formally inaugurated for public use by the PDP candidate for Ogun Central Senatorial District, Senator Iyabo Obasanjo, who described the intervention as part of the party’s commitment to supporting communities and improving the living conditions of residents.
Speaking at the inauguration, Obasanjo said the provision of essential amenities reflected the PDP’s approach to community development.
She also called for a change in the representation of the people, urging residents to reconsider the performance of their elected representatives.
She further promised to complement the borehole project with solar power to ensure a more reliable water supply and improve its functionality.
In his remarks, Amuzu said the intervention went beyond politics, stressing that access to basic amenities should not be treated as a political favour but as an important responsibility to the people.
He maintained that communities should not continue to experience unmet expectations, adding that public resources must translate into tangible development projects that directly benefit citizens.
According to him, leaders who fail to deploy available government resources towards meaningful development demonstrate a lack of foresight and disregard for the needs of the people.
The borehole is expected to provide residents of Kemta with improved access to potable water and ease the challenges associated with sourcing water for domestic use.
