Aniocha North Chairman Donates Transformer to Council Secretariat


Honours Late Vice Chairman of Council.

The Chairman of Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta state, Hon. Chuks Oseme has donated a brand new transformer to the council secretariat to boost electricity supply in the workplace.

The council boss who made the presentation in Issele-Uku on Tuesday, December 4, 2018 noted that the council secretariat was not fully connected to the national grid due to unavailability of transformer to serve the council.

According to him, today, another landmark achievement has been made in providing a brand new transformer to the council secretariat.

“It is a promise made, a project executed, and a project sustained. You may recall vividly that on 2nd September, 2015, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa commissioned electricity supply at the council area that was without electricity supply for over a decade, and today, another history is made also”

“There is no doubt that power supply through generator was in itself additional burden on the council’s lean resources. To ameliorate this unfavourable trend, my administration in the spirit of probity and accountability deemed it fit to provide a brand new transformer for the use of council secretariat” he stressed.

In another gesture, the chairman also presented a cheque of N500,000 to the Issele-Uku Electricity Project as part of support to the community self effort at providing security around the electricity installation.

Oseme noted that following the restoration of electricity supply in Issele-Uku, the massive rural-urban drift has reduced drastically and micro business activities have picked up in earnest.

While calling on all and sundry to contribute meaningfully to this noble cause, the council boss said electricity is bed rock of any meaningful development.
