As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Dominion Sanctuary, ACME, Region 19, Lagos, has donated a modern borehole to residents of Idiagbon community in Ogba area of Lagos State.

The leadership of the church led by Pastor Brown Oyitso, made the donation to the rustic community, which has long lacked adequate clean water. This came on the heels of similar donation to Agidingbi community by the church last December.

Addressing the elated Idiagbon community, Pastor Oyitso who also doubles as Special Assistant to the General Overseer on Missions, said that the borehole had the potential of nourishing the entire community by providing access to clean water.

He said: “We thank God that with this fully functioning borehole, the community can now access potable water. We need to mention that water is life. Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is the giver of living water.”

At the event, the cleric, who was flanked by his wife, Pastor Helen and other elders including Head of Department CSR, Deaconess Abayomi Adeleye; Pastor in Charge, Dominion Sanctuary, Bayo Omojola and Minister in Charge, (CSR), Pastor Olugbenga Ogunmoyela, said the gesture was informed by the directive of the General Overseer, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, who tasked churches to impact positively on communities where they operate.

Baale of the community, Chief George Abayomi Osoba prayed God to meet members of the church in their hours of need, saying the borehole came as succour to the people who have long lacked access to clean water.
