Governor Douye Diri of Bayelsa State has sent the names of 24 commissioner-nominees to the state House of Assembly for confirmation as of the state executive council.

Diri’s cabinet list is coming six months after he was sworn in as governor on February 14, following the Supreme Court judgment which nullified the election of David Lyon of the All Progressives Congress.

Among the nominees on the list sighted by our correspondent are five former commissioners who served in the istration of former Governor Seriake Dickson.

They are Mr Maxwell Ebibai, Mr Daniel Igali, Ms Faith Opene, Dr Igwele Newton and Mr Akpoebidei Alamieyeseigha.

From the list, however, three nominees are from the Brass Local Government Area; three from Ekeremor LGA; two from Diri’s LGA of Kolokuma/Opokuma and three from Nembe LGA; three from ex-President Goodluck Jonathan’s Ogbia LGA.

Also, three persons are nominated from Dickson’s council of Sagbama; four people nominated from Southern Ijaw LGA and three persons from Yenagoa LGA.

Appointing a cabinet after six months of swearing-in.

They do not have APC or PDP in ineptitude, incompetence, and looting. They are one and the same thing obviously.

Naija la wa

Everybody wan be godfather

If they are good, then way to go

Ok

Great

Dickson is the new godfather in Bayelsa but he should be careful not to overdo things like Oshomhole


Your home is incomplete without good quality furniture thats why we are here for you

Dickson is technically still in charge.. Wen Diri's eyes finally opens na those appointee will pay the price

Oh that's good by the standard set by Buhari.

At least he didn't give the most lucrative ministerial position to himself like Buhari.

Very soon governors will be forming a cabinet after two years.

9ja is the place of the absurd.

Short sighted leadership

What actually are the commissioners doing, they help to loot, if you look at some states you won't see what they contribute to the development of the states



In some states the governors do not give them the opportunity to meaningfully contribute, so you see them just as rubber stamp in their ministries


We need to restructure so as to move forward
