Osun State Community and Social Development Agency has revealed the Governor of Osun, Ademola Adeleke’s administration has spent about N2billon on 267 micro projects across the state.
This was revealed at a two-day media engagement programme organised by the agency, to show case various achievements of the CSDA.
The General Manager of the agency, Funmi Abokede revealed that the funds were made available by Adeleke owing to his interest in the provision of basic infrastructural needs for the rural dwellers in the state.
According to her, “Governor Ademola Adeleke has continually been given full support for the execution of micro projects spread across the state. The government has spent about N2 billion on over 267 micro projects across the state. One of the projects is the construction of a Development Centre for People with Disabilities.
“Throughout Nigeria, Osun is the only state that has a Centre for People with Disabilities. We have the centre at Edunabon. Some states have visited Osun to copy the idea.
“Provision of portable water, health facilities, provision of classrooms, among others are some other projects executed.”
She urged the journalists on the need to give total support for the agency by educating communities on the maintenance and sustainability of the projects executed by the agency in their various communities.
She appealed to the communities to ensure that the projects were properly maintained, Abokede called on the state government to ensure more funds were appropriated for the agency to implement several other micro-projects in rural areas.
