Access to clean water is a basic human right, and we are proud to support the Ibadan community with this solar-powered borehole.

This initiative demonstrates LG’s commitment to sustainability and inclusive growth in Nigeria, aligning with their philosophy of understanding customers and offering optimal solutions to improve their lives.

Dr. Olatubosun stated, “I commend LG Electronics for their dedication to community development in Nigeria, and I am particularly delighted that they have chosen to bring this project to Ibadan, Oyo State. We hope this gesture inspires more sustainable initiatives, reaching communities in dire need of clean water and benefiting both the environment and its people.

Improving Lives with Clean Water

The solar-powered borehole will provide the Ibadan community with a consistent and safe water supply, crucial for health, hygiene, and daily living.
