Details available have it

Ogun State Governor Ibikunle Amosun has presented a cheque of N50 million to Community Development Associations (CDAs) as grants-in-aid to complement their self-help projects.

The governor presented the cheque at the International Community Day Celebration at the MKO Abiola Stadium in Abeokuta, the state capital.

Amosun described the CDAs as veritable tools in nation building.

“I want to appreciate the CDAs for their self-help spirit. It is evident that the government alone cannot shoulder all responsibilities of developmental projects in the country.”

He pledged N5 million towards construction of their secretariat.

Commissioner for Community Development and Cooperatives Gbenga Adenmosun said about 300 CDAs, 100 CDCs and 20 Zonal Community Development Committee would benefit from the grants-in-aids
