Bayelsa@30: Celebrating Legacies
There is indeed every reason to celebrate our progress and milestones over the last 30 years as a state.
I recall with nostalgia my very humble contribution to the creation of this great state as a worthy “errand boy” to our leaders who were leading the State creation movement.
As one of the young people around at the time, I passionately delivered various tasks assigned to me in the collective interest of our people who have suffered long years of neglect, deprivation, environmental issues and infrastructural development.
30 years on, we have a great story to share during this celebration.
Join us to celebrate #BayelsaAt30

30 years ago, Bayelsa started with a single-lane road in Yenagoa and rudimentary govt structures. Today, we stand tall as the heartland of the Ijaw nation, bridging our riverine communities and asserting our rightful place in Nigeria. #BayelsaAT30#BayelsaCelebratingLegacies
