Labour Party Governorship Candidate in Bayelsa Pledges to End Years of Suffering

YENAGOA - The Labour Party (LP) governorship candidate in Bayelsa State, Commodore Benjamin Natus (retd.), has assured the people of the state that the party's standard-bearer for the November 11 election, Engr. Udengs Eradiri, will end their many years of suffering caused by bad leadership.

Natus, who spoke shortly after Eradiri officially presented him to the State Working Committee (SWC) of LP in Yenagoa, said that he accepted to become a running mate when he saw the passion of the governorship candidate and his sincerity to turn the state around.

He lamented that Bayelsa had remained underdeveloped because of the cash-and-carry style of governance as well as the lack of capacity and incompetence of political leaders.

He said when elected on November 11, LP would carry the people along and execute policies that would positively impact on the state's economy.

Natus said, "I accepted to run with him to bring the plans he has for Bayelsans to fruition. Bayelsa has suffered for this number of years without meaningful development.

It has been cash-and-carry in Bayelsa. Our coming in to take over governance means we will carry people along and do things that will turn around the economy of Bayelsa."

In his remarks, Eradiri, while presenting his running mate to the party leaders, said that Natus was known for his strong military records and administrative experience.

He said the wealth of experience of Natus was needed to make Bayelsa the true glory of all lands, insisting that LP would deal with the issues of pipeline vandalism by engaging the people.

Eradiri said his government would be centered around the people, getting their endorsements of all policies and programs to speed up development.

He said, "I know that we should be able to reduce the pressure on Abuja by dealing with the issues of pipeline vandalism without all the military force and money the Federal Government is spending.

By the time we engage from the experiences that I have, we would have been able to solve the Bayelsa problems by 50 per cent. Once the people understand you, it will be easier to drive every developmental agenda."

This declaration by the Labour Party (LP) governorship candidate in Bayelsa State, Engr. Udengs Eradiri, has given hope to the people of the state who have suffered for many years under ineffective leadership. The choice of Commodore Benjamin Natus (retd.) as his running mate further strengthens the party's commitment to serving the people and bringing about positive change.

Natus's acceptance to run as a partner with Eradiri indicates his belief in the governorship candidate's vision and dedication. With his military background, Natus brings a wealth of experience to the table, making him a valuable asset in the quest to transform Bayelsa into a thriving state.

One of the major issues plaguing Bayelsa is the cash-and-carry style of governance, which has hindered development and left the people suffering. Natus recognizes this problem and promises to change the status quo. He understands that meaningful development cannot be achieved without engaging the people and implementing policies that have a positive impact on the state's economy.

When LP assumes governance, their priority will be the welfare of the people. They aim to carry everyone along, ensuring that their voices are heard, and their needs are met. This inclusivity will aid in the execution of policies and programs that promote development and uplift the state.

One key area of concern is pipeline vandalism, which has been a major issue in Bayelsa. Eradiri pledges to tackle this problem by engaging with the people instead of relying solely on military force and financial expenditure. By fostering understanding and creating a sense of ownership among the people, Eradiri believes that the challenges faced by Bayelsa can be significantly reduced.

Eradiri's approach to governance revolves around the people. He recognizes the importance of obtaining their endorsements for all policies and programs to ensure their effectiveness. This participatory approach will foster a positive relationship between the government and the people, speeding up the development of Bayelsa.

As the November 11 election approaches, the LP's pledge to end years of suffering and bring about meaningful change resonates with the people of Bayelsa. The promise of a government that prioritizes their needs and includes them in decision-making processes instills hope for a brighter future.

If Eradiri and Natus are elected, the people of Bayelsa can look forward to a government that prioritizes development, engages with the people, and tackles critical issues such as pipeline vandalism. With their determination and the support of the LP, Bayelsa has the potential to become a thriving state that is a true glory among lands.
