CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE TO HIS EXCELLENCY SENATOR DOUYE DIRI 

I congratulate His Excellency, Senator Douye Diri who was sworn in today as the 5th Civilian Governor of Bayelsa State, in compliance with the Supreme court verdict of yesterday, 13th February 2020.
As Governor, the responsibility of building hope and sustaining peace across the State now lies on your shoulders.
I urge you to always bear in mind that you are the Governor of all Bayelsans and to seize this moment of glory to build bridges of unity by entrenching a culture of love, fairness and justice in our polity.
Your journey to Creek Haven is a divine one, so I advise you to use the position to do good to humanity and pursue the development of the State in order to write your name in gold.
You have worked with me before as a commissioner, so I am without doubt that you will live up to the expectations of our people.
I call on all Bayelsans to be law-abiding, peaceful and embrace this transition in all sincerity, and work together towards a united and prosperous State.
Congratulations Your Excellency.
GEJ

Fifty-Nine years ago, we walked into the road of political freedom when the Union Jack was lowered and the Green-White-Green Flag hoisted as the symbol of our sovereignty.
Citizens sang for joy, with heartbeats of hope and eyes flooded with a new vision of liberty and justice.
In these past decades, we have lived with the mixed reality of abundance and lack, peace and conflict, hope and despair. Despite the challenges, we have kept faith in the strength of our unity and stood firmly to uphold Nigeria's honour and glory.
It is for this spirit, that we have always emerged stronger in the face of trials.
As we celebrate our 59th Independence Anniversary, let’s honour the memory of those who committed their lives towards advancing the course of our freedom and wellbeing, which this day signifies.

1. Exactly twenty years ago, our nation turned the corner with a general election that signalled the end of a long spell of military dictatorship. With that came promises of good governance, equity and justice under the ambience of leadership driven by the will of the people.
2. Our celebration of democracy is therefore, a mark of our commitment to the virtues of liberty, justice and the people’s freedom to daily engage government on how best to achieve our national goals.
3. We may not have realised these promises and all that are possible in the new dispensation but democracy to me remains an incubator for great ideas, visions, development and hope.

THIS SHOULD NOT STAND!!

The Supreme Court on Thursday sacked David Lyon and Sen. Biobarakuma Degi-Eremienyo, as the governor and deputy elect in the Nov. 16, 2019 Bayelsa governorship election.
Justice Ejembi Eko, who delivered the lead judgment reinstated the Nov. 12, 2019, Judgment of the Federal High Court in Abuja that disqualified Degi-Eremieoyo from participating in the governorship poll.
The court held that the trial court was right in finding the deputy guilty of presenting false information to INEC.

The Justice Mary Odili-led panel, held that no person shall be qualified to contest election if he presented false information for the purpose of election.

Firstly let me thank God for making this possible and finding me worthy of service to the Bayelsa People.

Also allow me to thank President @MBuhari, the @OfficialAPCNg Governors and true progressives all around the nation, especially the National Chairman of the APC, Comrade
Adams Aliu Oshiomole, the National Chairman of the APC Campaign Council and Governor of Jigawa State, Governor Muhammad Badaru Abubakar and the National Leadership of the Party, for the victory of the party at the polls.
Special appreciation to my party leadership and our dynamic leader and Minister of state Petroleum, Chief @TSylva_ for all the support and encouragement during this most demanding time.

Also, I appreciate the elderly advice and support from our traditional rulers, Community

The easiest way to become Nigeria’s President is by not wanting the job in the first place. This is because, the acquisition of Presidential power in Nigeria has always followed a particular pattern...

#Thread
Last night, I remembered a conversation that I had with one of my mentors about the fact that all Nigerian Presidents have been people that were first chosen by the elite or circumstance — not people that actually actively campaigned for the job.
Interesting to note also, all Nigerian Presidents have been propelled to power by other people’s resources — not their own.
