The senator representing Taraba north, Senator Shuaibu Isa Lau has connected the Mayo-Lope community to the national grid
While inspecting the project, he also assured that upon completion the community would be linked to the national grid
The Senator, who was physically at the project site on Friday, bagged the traditional tittle of Dan-Iya Sanwi Chiefdom of Mayo Lope, as a mark of appreciation.
The project, according to the lawmaker, is meant to address the prolonged period of darkness in the community.
Before the commencement of the project, economic activities in Mayo-Lope were paralyzed due to lack of electricity supply
There was also wild jubilation in the community after the inspection of the project.
Recall that people within the various communities in the state have given him the nickname of Baba Mai Lantarki, which translates to the father of rural electrification.
