Hon. Seriki Lights Up Ward 8 With Solar Street Lights, Applauds Akande’s Development Drive

Residents of Ward 8 in Ibadan South West Local Government have begun enjoying improved visibility at night following the installation of solar powered street lights provided by the Councillor representing the ward, Hon. Seriki Idris Abiodun.

The intervention has brightened several parts of the ward that were previously without proper street lighting, bringing relief to residents and business owners who now feel more confident carrying out their lawful activities beyond daytime.

Hon. Seriki said the project was carried out in response to the requests of the people, explaining that every elected representative has a duty to listen to the needs of the community and provide practical solutions where possible.

He commended the Executive Chairman of Ibadan South West Local Government, Hon. Kehinde Akande, for maintaining a development driven administration that has continued to encourage growth across the council area.
