The church also constructed two additional toilet rooms and renovated the old ones, bringing the total number of toilets to six.
The pastor in charge, John Aroyo, said during the inauguration of the project that lack of such facilities could cause disease outbreak and the church deemed it fit to improve the lives of pupils and teachers.
He said, “Due to the closeness of the school to our church, and because of the need to invest in the future of these children, we liaised with the pastor of the province, Olusegun Osunsan, who told us to go ahead with the project.
“After Etunrere Primary School, we will go on to Igbaga Primary School which has 800 pupils and has no toilet.
“We also inaugurated a borehole system at Akunwape Street, Ikorodu and by God’s grace we’ll continue to do more.”
Aroyo said Etunrere Primary School, which was founded in 1946, had only four toilets and no potable water.
The education secretary, Ikorodu LG Education authority, Mr. Taiwo Oduloye, thanked the church for the gesture and urged members of the public to emulate the church.
He said, “These new toilets and septic tank will improve the health of our pupils because they will neatly ease themselves without any problem. We’ll keep the toilets clean and maintain them.”
Also, the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Spirit and Life Area, Mararaba has donated boreholes to Farin Ruwa community, Nasarawa State and Dutse Alhaji, Kubwa, Abuja.
The church also said it had concluded arrangement to build a maternity hospital to serve Farin Ruwa residents and reduce frustrations of pregnant women who pay exorbitant charges for antenatal service at private hospitals.
The Regional Pastor, RCCG Northern Province, Joseph Olaade, who commissioned the water project at Farin Ruwa on Sunday, described the gesture as the church’s corporate social responsibility to the community.
He said the project was part of the vision of the RCCG General Overseer, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, “who had the vision of the gospel of Jesus Christ which brings succour to life.”
Olaade in a short sermon said Jesus was concerned about people’s life, noting that his first miracle of turning water to wine at a wedding reflected this.
Speaking earlier, the provincial pastor, Adedoyin Titus, said the church had created an office to coordinate community projects that impact on people wherever the church is domiciled.
In a related development, RGCC, Lagos Province 29, on Sunday donated boreholes to Dalemo area of Alakuko and Daleko area of Alagbado in Lagos State.
The church said the project was part of its community development programmes aimed at giving back to the society.
Member, Corporate Social Responsibility Board of the province, Pastor Ropo Fabusuyi, said the church started the project after carrying out a needs analysis of the communities.
A resident of Alakuko, Rotimi Ogunmekan, said the water project would save them the stress of walking several miles to fetch water.
