A youth group, under the auspices of Isanlu-Isin Youth Forum on Thursday presented a 300KVA transformer to Isanlu-Isin community in Isin Local Government Area of Kwara.

The National Coordinator of the group, Mr Jacob Ayanda, presented the transformer to the Olusin of Isanlu-Isin, Oba Solomon Oloyede, on behalf of the youth.

Ayanda said that the group purchased the transformer at the sum of N2.4 million.

The coordinator said that the money was contributed by a good number of youths from the community.

He added that the gesture was meant to alleviate the suffering of the indigenes in the area of electricity which had been epileptic and the acute shortage of water caused by inadequate power supply.

Ayanda called on the state government to fulfil its promise to tar Oke-Onigbin – Isanu-Isin Road, which he said was the pride of the community.

After receiving the transformer, Oloyede expressed gratitude to the youth for the gift.

He said that what gladdened his heart about the gift was that youths of Isanlu-Isin were engaged in profitable venture that would bring joy and succour to the community.

The traditional ruler advised that people must be ready to help themselves as government alone could not do everything.

He prayed that God would continue to protect the youth and provide for their needs.

Oba Oloyede, therefore, called on others who had not been part of the group to team up immediately to bring more good things to the community
