FA Cup Glory: Truly, Bayelsa is in safe hands with Gov. Diri, By Imomotimi Sunday

Governor Diri



He is indeed a blessing to Bayelsa State.

His Excellency, Senator Douye Diri, Governor of Bayelsa State, represents one of the best things that has happened to this great state at this time.

Truth be told that he is admired by the generality of the people because of his great disposition and positive leadership vibes coming from this champion of Prosperity.

Good things are no doubt happening under his administration and those great things are marvelous in the sight of many Bayelsans.

The miracles of his emergence are rubbing off on every sector in the state and the latest being the double victory of the two state-owned football teams, Bayelsa United and Bayelsa Queens in both the men's and women's FA cup final on Sunday.

This is no mean feat by a club campaigning in the 2nd tier of the nation's football league.

The double victory was no fluke and not accidental but laced with grace, genuine support and investments in the two teams.

Indeed, the lyrics of Ijaw music maestro, Barrister Smooth describing emergence of Senator Douye Diri as no mistake is very apt looking at events in the state.

Sincerely, this man of hope and grace, Senator Douye Diri, is doing something right and with the support of Bayelsans, more God's glory will reach many other sectors.

Once again, congratulations to Bayelsa United, Bayelsa Queens and entire people of the state for this sports milestone.
