The people of ancient Igbotele village in Odo-Otin Local Government Area of Osun State yesterday pleaded with the state government to provide them with social amenities to improve their lives. In a chat with New Telegraph, three villagers; Temitope Yusuf, Muritala Yusuf and Zulaykoh Jamiu, said basic amenities were not a luxury, but a necessity, calling for improved infrastructure necessary for their wellbeing and the continued prosperity of their community. Zulaykoh, a housewife, lamented that despite the importance of Igbotele to the local economy, the village was deprived of essential social amenities.
She said, “The lack of potable water makes life challenging for us in this village, hindering our ability to thrive and sustain our contribution to the state’s agricultural output”..
