Akinwande added that his mission with the mandate of Governor ‘Seyi Makinde is to provide potable water to the residents of the State.
He stressed further that all the outdated or vandalised equipment of the corporation would be replaced soon, so as to ensure that water flow in the state as promised.
The places visited were Agodi Booster Station, Mapo District, Beere Booster Station and Oke-Ado District.
Others were Eleyele Drawing point, Jericho District, Eleyele Water Supply Scheme, Mokola Booster Station as well as Bodija District.
Meanwhile, in the entourage of the Chairman was one of the Board Members of the Corporation, Alhaji Basiru Adesiyan and all the Directors of the Corporation.
