Bayelsa State Governor, Douye Diri, underscored the imperative for collective responsibility in enhancing citizens’ livelihoods, stressing that both governmental and private sector efforts are crucial. Speaking at the Easter Sunday service in Sampou, Kolokuma/Opokuma Local Government Area, Governor Diri emphasized the limitations of solely relying on palliative measures to address economic woes, advocating instead for sustainable solutions.

“While acknowledging the role of short-term relief, Governor Diri outlined his administration’s commitment to instituting enduring frameworks to tackle economic adversities,” the statement read.

The governor highlighted ongoing initiatives aimed at fostering long-term empowerment rather than fleeting assistance. These include the establishment of technical colleges across all eight Local Government Areas to address skills shortages and facilitate skill acquisition. Moreover, infrastructure development projects, such as road construction in remote areas, are underway to bolster socio-economic empowerment.

Governor Diri reiterated that governmental support alone cannot suffice, urging citizens to actively participate in entrepreneurial endeavors. “Government cannot be the sole provider; hence, engaging in business ventures and leveraging skill acquisition programs are essential for personal growth and the state’s development,” he remarked.

The governor’s call to action resonates with his vision of a proactive and self-sufficient populace, poised to contribute meaningfully to Bayelsa State’s progress.
