The Osun State Government launched Imole Wi-Fi, a free public internet service designed to expand digital access for residents, students, businesses and communities across the state.
The Government disclosed this in a statement issued on Monday by the State Commissioner for Information and Enlightenment, Kolapo Alimi.
According to Alimi, Imole Wi-Fi is intended to facilitate digital access and increase opportunities across various sectors throughout the state.
The initial connection will be available in government buildings, including the Osun State Library, Alphastart Hub, Osun Mall, Salvation Army Middle School, Osogbo Grammar School and sites within the Ministry of Innovation, Science, Technology and Digital Economy.
The Commissioner added that the service is part of the administration’s push to deepen digital inclusion and stimulate growth in education, health, agriculture and commerce.
“Imole Wi-Fi is a gateway to opportunity. With this public digital infrastructure, we are cutting barriers, connecting people, and driving growth across every sector of Osun’s economy,” Governor Ademola Adeleke said, announcing the rollout.
The Special Adviser overseeing the initiative, Azeez Badmus, described the launch as an initial phase that will be expanded.
“This is just the first step. As we expand Imole Wi-Fi, more government services and sector-specific tools will follow, ensuring that every resident benefits from Osun’s digital future,” he said.
The statement added that Imole Wi-Fi is expected to be rolled out to additional locations over time.
