Water scarcity in Abeokuta will soon be over —Kunle Otun

Bankole Taiwo, Abeokuta

As rehabilitation work at the Ogun State Water Corporation’s dam site  is in top gear, an appeal has gone to the people of Abeokuta and environs to bear with the state government during the period.

Special Adviser to the Governor on Water Resources, Engr. Kunle Otun made the appeal while inspecting  the level of work completion of sluice gates rehabilitation at Arakanga Water Works, Iberekodo Abeokuta.

Engr. Otun said the purpose of the project was to ensure that adequate volumes of raw water is extracted from the source to the treatment plants and distribute massively to the growing demands of communities in Abeokuta noting that the appropriate time to successfully achieve the set plan is during the dry season.

On his part, General Manager, Ogun State Water Corporation Engr. Segun Maku assured residents that on completion of the project, every part of the city would enjoy  continuous supply of  potable water.
