Bayelsa State Deputy Governor, Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo, was on Thursday rushed to the Federal Medical Centre, FMC, Yenagoa, after reportedly collapsing in his office.

Security operatives have cordoned off the hospital, and top government officials have visited to express concern.

Attempts to reach the deputy governor’s media aide, Mr. Doubara Atasi, for comments were unsuccessful.

However, a member of the hospital’s management disclosed that the deputy governor is receiving the best possible care and is stable.

As at the time of filing this report, no official statement has been released by the Bayelsa State government regarding the development.

Zionmdde:
Why did he collapse na
Bayelsa, small state, very high oil revenue and allocation
Absolutely nothing to show for it
Unless there is something we don't know, else all bayelsa indigenes cam be conveniently placed on at least 50k monthly salary

All their political leaders need more collapsing

mrvitalis:
And what would be the results of giving everyone 50k a month ? ... U no do economics?

Not defending bayelsa leaders but cost of doing any project in bayelsa is over 10 times higher because it's terrain

Zionmdde:
So which project has been done in the last 5 years?
Yes 50k will go a long way in helping the indigenes who are majorly struggling (I don't want to say poor)
