Bayelsa is one of the richest states in Nigeria yet one of the poorest.

With eight local governments yet only two and half are accessible by road despite the billions received monthly, the government could not link all the local governments by road.

Purewater is very expensive in Bayelsa, it's even sold for over 2,500 per bag in some communities despite being surrounded by water yet people don't have good water to drink.

Rich with oil and great waterways yet the people are so poor that I don't know who is poorer between the northerners and Bayelsans. Aside from Yenagua that is half developed, every other parts of the state is either a slum or shanties. You will see an expensive house owned by either politicians or oyel guys built in the committee of rickety and dilapidated houses.

They collect allocations monthly, share among the politicians and civil servants. Some local government staff only come to the secretariat at the end of the month to collect salary and withdraw back to their houses only to reappear the following month to collect their own share of the national cake.

Even Jonathan as a president for six years had no positive impact on the state,even his home community is not linked by road.

Youths have been made to believe that it is a waste of time to do legitimate hustle, schooling is a scam to most of them. Everyone want to have illegal refinery to chop oyel money.

All their governors are much richer than the state.

God please help Bayelsa.
