The Oyo State Government has embarked on the rehabilitation of water pipelines in the Eleyele and Sango axis of Ibadan, the state capital.

The Chairman, Water Corporation of Oyo State, Elias Adeojo, stated this in his office, after a meeting with the engineers of the corporation saddled with the responsibility of rehabilitating the pipes.

He reiterated that the government has devised means of segmenting the rehabilitation of the moribund pipelines in phases across the state, due to paucity of funds, noting that supply of water had met a brick wall before the advent of the current administration in the state.

Adeojo said the Eleyele drawing point has been facelifted by adding more treated water drawing points to cater to the yearnings of the corporation’s customers and boost its revenue drive.

The Chairman, thereafter, expressed his appreciation to Governor Seyi Makinde for giving the corporation the necessary support in carrying out the rehabilitation across the state
