We Will Identify An Additional 40 Communities For The Provision Of Electricity Supply In Our Rural Communities Through The Mini-grids System At The Rate Of 10 Communities/year.

Our Assessment

The promise to provide electricity to 40 rural communities via mini-grids is off to an exceptionally strong start. Exceeding the first-year identification target by 70% and progressing to the design stage demonstrates a government that is not just keeping its promise but is aggressively pursuing it.

17 Communities identified for provision of mini grid in Oyo state

As part of its commitment to rural development and economic inclusion, the Makinde administration made a specific, time-bound promise to expand electricity access. The government pledged to identify an additional 40 communities for the provision of electricity supply through the mini-grids system, at a rate of 10 communities per year. This initiative aims to bridge the energy gap, stimulate local economies, and improve the quality of life in underserved rural areas.

This project stands as a leading example of a pledge that is being implemented with clear purpose and efficiency. If the current momentum in planning and design is successfully translated into the construction and commissioning phases, this initiative has the potential to be one of the most impactful and successfully delivered promises of the Omituntun 2.0 administration, fundamentally transforming the lives of thousands of citizens in rural Oyo State.
