 Ogun  Govt. Sympathises With Victims Of Ado Odo/Ota Over Rainstorm Destruction 


...says we're in touch with IBEDC for prompt action 


 Ogun State Government said it was in touch with the Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) to ensure the immediate fixing of poles damaged as a result of rainstorm occasioned by Sunday's downpour in some parts of Sango in Ado Odo/Ota Local Government Area of the state.


The government, in a statement signed by the Special Adviser on Media, Hon. Kayode Akinmade said a team from the state government was in the area on Monday to physically ascertain the extent of damage and to know how to engage with IBEDC, as well as sympathising with victims.


Akinmade noted the cables had not been energized before the destruction, which saved lots of lives.


"Our team went on physical site inspection of the affected area on Monday to ascertain the extent of the damage and to know how to engage with the IBEDC team.


"We are currently working with the IBEDC team led by the Regional Manager and the Technical Head for the Ogun Region. Some of the less affected feeders have been restored and energized while the clean-up of the most affected areas has already started. 


"Most of the poles on the roads have been removed while the remaining will be taken out today (Wednesday). We are working with IBEDC to ensure there will be full restoration of power in Sango Ota before the week runs out.


"The government is not relenting on its effort to make sure that we restore power to Sango Ota and its environs and we can assure the citizens that we are on top on the matter.


"We, therefore,  commiserate  with those whose properties were destroyed by the fallen poles, as the government urged those living in the area to remain calm.
