Residents of Remi Akande Street in Alimosho Local Government were filled with joy today as they received a new transformer from the government.
The Executive chairman of Alimosho Local Government, Hon. Jelili Sulaimon as well as Lagos State Government led by Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu were eulogized.
The Landlords Association Secretary, Mr Richard Apata said, "today is a great day in our lives. Before now, it’s been so hectic for business owners using electricity to render services to people. At night, we find it difficult to sleep most especially during the heat period.
"This government is a government that fulfils promises. When they first told us we will be having a transformer, some of us were doubting the government. But today, we’ve all realized that our governments are really working to put smiles on our faces”, Mr Apata concluded.
A party and community leader, Elder Juwon Akinlaja added, "today is one of the happiest days in this environment because of what the Governor has done for us. He made a promise and he fulfilled it”.
Elder Juwon also appreciated the efforts of Hon. Jelili Sulaimon, and Ward E Councillor, Hon. Thonthel Abayomi for facilitating the project.
Hon. Thonthel commented: "I am very grateful that this came to my community. This is what the community needs now and it has brought light and joy to this community”.
He further advised the residents of the community to maintain the transformer and guide it jealously.
The delivery was attended by several members of the community including party leaders, S.A. Agric to Alimosho Local Government, Alhaji Adedapo among others.
