Yenagoa, May 5, 2021 The Bayelsa Government has urged members of the State Elders Council to support the struggle for restructuring of the country and passage of the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB).
Gov. Douye Diri made the call at the councilâs quarterly meeting in Yenogoa on Tuesday.
Represented by his deputy, Mr Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo, Diri reiterated the state governmentâs preparedness to identify with any worthy cause aimed at addressing the injustice and imbalances in the country.
The governor attributed the âunrelenting agitations for secession by some ethnic nationalities to absence of justice, fairness and equityââ.
He, therefore, advised the elders to be united at all times and expand their lobbying across ethnic lines to advance the cause for equitable representation in all federal agencies and institutions.
