My good people of Okura constituency, it is in line with our tradition that when you send a child on an errand, in due time the child is expected to return to give feedback on how the message was delivered.
I want to thank you all for your patience while embarking on the errands you all sent me to the State HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY to represent you through your collective votes.
In as much as our responsibility as Legislators is to make laws that draws the attention of the Executive to the needs of our constituency, we have decided to overlap the boundaries into the active role of directly bringing solutions to the immediate need of our people.
It is in line with the above assertion that I, HON. HASSAN ABDULLAHI a member representing the good people of OKURA CONSTITUENCY, and also the DEPUTY SPEAKER of the House, have decided to execute the under listed programmes and projects;
WATER:
Water is said to be life, hence no people survives without it. But we discovered during our electioneering campaigns that some communities have no access to good water as they travel several kilometres to fetch water from streams.
We decided to provide the following communities with boreholes in the FIRST PHASE of our projects. The benefitting communities are:
1. Ofuloko
2. Agala-Ogane
3. Omedo 2

10. Ewune, and
11. Egboje
which are almost completed,
While AGWUDOKO and OBEYALILE boreholes both in ANYIGBA Community were rehabilitated.
EDUCATION:
It’s an obvious fact that our Public Schools are in dire need for attention. Though it’s an enormous task, but we must start from somewhere. Below are some of my efforts in that direction:

And so many more.
Finally, I must not fail to mention also other supports rendered to our constituents at various times such as payment of hospital bills, burial assistance, wedding assistance and several other family supports which happens almost on a daily basis.
Once again, I thank you all for your support and patience as we look forward to the commissioning of the projects and distribution of the Empowerment items.
