Osun state launches free public Wi-Fi for residents and students

The Osun State Government has launched Imole Wi-Fi , a free public internet service aimed at expanding digital access for residents, students, businesses, and communities across the state.

The initiative, announced on Monday by the State Commissioner for Information and Enlightenment, Kolapo Alimi , is designed to increase opportunities across education, health, agriculture, commerce, and other sectors.

Initially, Imole Wi-Fi will be available at key government buildings and public spaces, 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.

Governor Ademola Adeleke described the service as “a gateway to opportunity,” adding that it will help cut barriers, connect people, and stimulate growth across the state’s economy.

The Special Adviser overseeing the project, Azeez Badmus , said the launch is the first phase of the initiative. He added that as the program expands, more government services and sector-specific digital tools will be made available, ensuring all residents benefit from Osun’s digital future.

Imole Wi-Fi is expected to be rolled out to additional locations over time, positioning Osun State as a pioneer in digital inclusion in Nigeria.
