Residents of Olode in Ife south local government area of Osun State on Saturday blocked ever-busy Ondo-Ife road to protest over 12 years power outage in the area.
The residents trooped out en mass to express their grievance over the slow pace of the ongoing reconnection project by the state government.
They were armed with placards with different inscriptions all calling on Governor Adegboyega Oyetola to ensure their stay in darkness ends.
Several motorists and their passengers were left stranded as the road was blocked for over two hours by the angry protesters.
It was gathered that Governor Oyetola had in June 2021 flagged off reconnection of the town to national grid but the project has not seen the light of the day as darkness continues to persist in the area. CONTINUE READING..
