He said it would also provide an opportunity for the incoming administration to take off as it would involve commissioners, heads of key parastatals and agencies taking turns to make their presentations in graphic details.
While stating that despite some challenges, the Restoration Government did not shy away from its agenda of providing a new lease of life for the people, the commissioner attributed the success of the government to the leadership style of Governor Seriake Dickson and his commitment to using public resources for the good of the people.
“Through the purposeful leadership of Governor Dickson, Bayelsa has been set on an unstoppable trajectory of growth and development that will continue to be seen in the coming years.
“The Restoration Government has indeed been one that has instilled decency and accountability into the governance of the state as never seen before.
“Bayelsans should expect proper accountability of our stewardship during the programme as every commissioner and heads of agencies will come before the people to present their scorecard.”
