PUBLIC OFFICE HOLDERS IN BAYELSA HAVE WORKED TO SHOW THAT THEY - TopicsExpress



          

PUBLIC OFFICE HOLDERS IN BAYELSA HAVE WORKED TO SHOW THAT THEY LOVE BAYELSA AND BAYELSANS: HOW TRUE IS THIS ASSERTION? I cannot remember the last or first time a public office holder in Bayelsa, ie, local Government chairman, a commissioner, a minister, senator,state law maker, local government law maker voluntarily choose to embark on a project that will make the people happy like sporting activities, inter school debates and other activities that will engage young minds, the reverse has always been the case, instead, they are primarily concern in acquiring wealth, marrying other peoples wife, chasing widows and single ladies, paying less regard to the office they occupy and give employment opportunities to their friends and love ones that is meant for all Bayelsans. One will begin to imagine or think otherwise as we were told there are scholarships for Bayelsans yet the sons and daughters of those in office get them, what then is the essence of making scholarships available? Is scholarship designed for the rich and wealthy or for the poor who cannot afford school fees, on the other hand, is scholarship meant for the gifted children or for very dull children that cannot identify their names on sign post? Considering the statistics of scholarship benefitiaries of the Bayelsa state scholarship scheme, 95 percent are(were) friends, sons, daughters great grand children of public office holders, my question at this point is, could this be demonstration of love for Bayelsans in disguise? Concern Bayelsans have been writing them proposals to develop youths, sponsor sports, academics enterprises in the state, non is willing to sponsor, except for Honourable Esenah Tonye reprenting Kolga constituency 1, non of them is interested in promoting sports in our local communities, as a child, I enjoyed some of these things under military regime, no wonder some persons see military regime as a better alternative to democracy, no wonder APC is condenming PDP with impunity, no wonder Buhari still thinks he is capable to rule again. I thought there is a ministry of sport, what do they do? S S A sports and Youths development, what does he or she do? YOU people complain there is no money to sponsor developmental projects in your local government and villages yet everybody around YOU expose the fact that there is money, no money to develop the state yet there is money to develop yourselves. Small state like Bayelsa with oil wealth suffers like a big state with no oil wealth, today! Big states cry because of budget problems, small state like Bayelsa also want to complain, what is the rationale behind for why Bayelsa is complaining, we did not see the billions when they were coming, now that are not coming as usual, we are still encouraged to endure the hardship when it finally comes...IT IS A PITY. This kind of post will continue to come from me because of my love for Bayelsa and its development.
