Government of the state pledged to ensure constant electricity supply to make
life more meaningful for the people when given the mantle of leadership to
govern the state.

Osaisai who earlier declared his intention to contest the governorship election
in the House of God in Koluama, and among the first to picked the PDP
expression of intent and nomination form, also assured to address the problems
of insecurity of lives and property in the state as soon as he was sworn in on
February 14, 2020.
Noting

daylight and carry everybody along in his administration.
“By October 1st Bayelsa state will
be 23years. There are quite a number of challenges here. And that is why we are
prepared to provide service. We are prepared to provide leadership.
One
thing that troubles me, you cannot move freely in Yenagoa after about 7pm.
Isn’t it? That is insecurity. We have to find away to prevent this to our
people.
We
have to find away to ensure that the level of poverty in Bayelsa is reduce in
such a way that the means of livelihood of every Bayelsan is provided. If I
become the governor those are some of the things I must do.
One of the challenges we have here also, does
the devil operate in Darkness or Day Light? One of the problems we find here in
Bayelsa even in the State Capital is Darkness,” he asserted.
The
PDP governorship aspirant promised to also construct motorable roads to link
communities in the rural areas to the state capital, starting from Yenagoa to
Brass, Akassa, Yenagoa to Southern Ijaw and to Agge in the three Senatorial
District of the state.

to him, his administration when given the mandate would establish functional
hospitals in the rural areas to enhance healthcare delivery.

Odibikuma extolled the virtues of Dr Osaisai and the right steps he has taken
towards his desire to govern the people of the state.
Venerable
Odibikuma stated emphatically that he has not seen a politician who has done
his formal declaration to contest an election in the House of God, but Dr
Osaisai did it in his home town Koluama, in the Church.
The
gesture, he said, was a clear manifestation of his desire to serve the people
to improve their socio-economic and political wellbeing but not to suffer them.
Noting
that when the righteous rule the people rejoice while when wicked rule the people suffer, the man
of God warned Bayelsans to be wise this time around not to put themselves into
suffering again by chosen the right man to govern them on November 16

smooth way to Creek Haven.

leader and a man who has the vision to rule the state for the overall benefit
of the people.

urged the people to vote for him during the PDP primaries and the governorship
election.
