There was jubilation among Ekuku-Agbor and other communities in Ika South Local Government Area, Delta State following the restoring electricity in their communities after 15 years.
The communities include Ekuku-Agbor, Obi-Agbor, Egbudu Akan, and several others.
Residents of the community and its environs were not only enveloped in ecstasy but jubilated as they showered encomiums on the Delta State Governor, Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, and the Chairman of Ika South Local Government, Engr Jerry Ehiwarior for the completion of the substation, which has put an end to years of blackout.
Some of the community leaders who spoke to newsmen, including Chief P. C. Aliemeke, Mr. Simon Okocha, President-General of Ekuku-Agbor community, and Chief Isaac Ebonka of Agbor-Alidinma, said they were glad to witness this historic moment after years of lost hope.
While thanking the governor for the gesture, the people said both Gov. Oborevwori and Engr. Ehiwarior had proven to be empathetic leaders who restore their confidence in the state government.
“With the restoration of electricity supply, the economic activities in Ekuku-Agbor and adjoining communities that cut across Ika South and Aniocha South Local Government Areas have now been revived,” they stated.
