Olokemeji agog as ARC Tope Ogunleye(RST) donates borehole to community

…Olokemeji Appreciates Borehole Donation from Architect Tope Ogunleye.

On Tuesday, the Olokemeji Community in Odo Ado, Ado-Ekiti, celebrated the commissioning of a new borehole, a gift from the Special Adviser and Director-General to the Ekiti State Governor at the Bureau of Special Projects, Architect Tope Ogunleye, fondly known as “RST.”

The event, which marked a significant milestone in the community’s access to clean and reliable water was graced by the presence of the Special Adviser to the Governor on Politics and Inter-Party Relations, High Chief Jide Awe, Aba Atiba of Erinjiyan Kingdom, APC Acting Chairman Chf. Olusola Elesin, as well as members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) party, including the Ado Ekiti APC Party Chairman, Executive Chairman, Ado Ekiti Local Govt Area, Chf. Bosun Osaloni and his Vice Mrs. Fausat Aladetoyinbo, Ado Ekiti Leaders Forum, and plenty loyal supporters.

“RST’s unwavering commitment to community development and grassroots empowerment has once again been demonstrated through this latest initiative,” said High Chief Jide Awe. “His tireless efforts in identifying and addressing the pressing needs of the people he serves are truly commendable.”

This borehole project which used to commemorate BAO 600 days in office is the second in a series of community development initiatives spearheaded by RST. Last year, he donated a motorized borehole to the Utaeku community, marking the 100 days of Governor Biodun Oyebanji’s administration, as he promised to reach out to other communities as the Governor celebrates significant days in office.

“RST’s dedication to improving the lives of the people in Ekiti State is a testament to his vision and leadership,” said a representative from the Ado Ekiti Leaders Forum. “His ability to mobilize community members and garner support for these projects is a clear indication of his deep understanding of the needs and dynamics of the people he serves.”

Rev. Dr. Ashaolu Anthony, Chairman of Oloruntedo Community, Olokemeji, Ado-Ekiti, praised RST for his thoughtfulness and for meeting the people at the point of their need, emphasizing how water has been a major problem in this part of Ado. He concluded that RST gave life because he who gives water gives life.

The commissioning of the Olokemeji borehole is a significant milestone in Ekiti State’s efforts to provide essential infrastructure and services to its citizens. By ensuring the availability of clean, accessible water, RST is not only addressing a basic human need but also contributing to the overall well-being and development of the community.

As the Ekiti State government continues to strive for greater progress and prosperity, individuals like RST will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in realizing this vision and making a lasting impact on the lives of the people they serve.
