State Commissioner for Water Resources, Usman Yunusa Lade, provided this assurance during an on-site assessment of the project, stating that the rehabilitation aims to enhance water supply for Ilorin and surrounding areas. Represented by Permanent Secretary Christiana Omolola Asonibare, the commissioner underscored the urgency of completing the works, highlighting that a significant portion of the population depends on the facility as their main source of potable water.
Responding, Louis Onome Obukohwo, Project Manager – Hydro Gold Limited, pledged to complete the foundation treatment within a week.
