In a major step toward addressing water scarcity in Kogi East, Senator Isah Jibrin (Echocho) has completed the construction of motorized boreholes in Idah, Ankpa, Dekina, and several neighboring communities. This initiative is set to ease the burden of water access for thousands of residents who have struggled with limited or unreliable water sources.
