June 09, 2010: Ekiti (Araromi-Ekiti, Ijero LGA) - Osun (Molufon) - Lagos
We're into Day 15 of the Solar for the Masses expedition. Our 29th and 30th stops were Ekiti state (Araromi Basic Healthcare Centre in Ijero LGA), and Osun state (Molufon Health Centre in Orolu LGA).
In Osun state, the Oba of Orolu Kingdom, Ifon - His Royal Highness Oba Moruf Magbagbeola Adekunle - took our mission so seriously that he asked three of his high chiefs to escort us to the Molufon centre. One of the chiefs informed us that the threadbare Molufon Health Centre served 3 local governments, meaning that critically ill people often lost their lives during the long trek to the clinic.
In a show of appreciation for our solar lamp gift, the staff of Molufon health centre presented us with several bottles of vitamin supplements.
We spent the night in Lagos
Connectivity:
Internet: Good signal strength from GLO in Ekiti and Osun states
Mobile phone: In Ikoro Ekiti, MTN service was good, while GLO was weak
