Ogun Deputy Governor: “Does anybody in this Local Government have pipe-borne water?” “No!” the participants responded. Mrs Deputy Governor, Engr. @NoimotOyedele, this response from residents of Ota should raise serious questions about access to basic public services in your state. It is troubling that you, as a sitting Deputy Governor, have to appeal to a Senator for intervention on a responsibility that should have already received urgent attention from your government. Between January and August 2026 alone, Ogun State received over N140 billion in FAAC allocations. How much of this has been invested in providing basic amenities such as safe and reliable water for communities like Ota? The people of Ota need more than public expressions of concern or promises from political aspirants. They need access to clean, reliable water. With the time remaining in this administration, concrete steps can still be taken to address this challenge. There is also no need to wait for the APC governorship candidate to intervene. Your office can also demand answers from the alleged Federal Ministry of Water Resources or other agencies responsible for the abandoned water project in the area. Public office comes with the responsibility to deliver. The people of Ota deserve answers, a clear intervention plan, and, most importantly, access to water. #Askquestions
