As his first term draws to a close, Governor Douye Diri of Bayelsa State has set the wheels in motion for a smooth transition by instructing his cabinet members to begin preparing their handover notes.
The directive, issued during Wednesday’s State Executive Council meeting, comes after the 2023 gubernatorial elections and the potential continuation of Diri’s leadership.
He commended his cabinet members for adding value to the state through their performance and thanked them for the selfless service they rendered in the last four years, noting that the achievements recorded by his administration in its first term were collective and were not an exclusive preserve of himself or his deputy.
