“We must therefore, congratulate the people of Bayelsa for the positive transformation. It is exciting to know that this development is fairly distributed across the state. My brother, you have done what everybody knows is good for this state.

“This development has its challenges, especially in a terrain that is difficult as Bayelsas’. It is a task that can only be executed by a large-hearted leader like Diri. You have not only responded to the yearnings of the people of Bayelsa but also made your party, the PDP, proud as well as your friends with this impressive score card.”
