Eradiri, a former president of the Ijaw Youth Council, stated this while briefing journalists on his development agenda for the state at his campaign secretariat in Yenagoa on Thursday.
The LP standard bearer, who hails from Bayelsa Central as the second term-seeking governor Douye Diri of the PDP, said, “I believe that as a young man who has gone through the process of learning, it is time I shouldn’t be complaining but take action.
“My PEAP agenda will be propagated around every structure of leadership. We are going to run a pyramid system of government in Bayelsa State where local governments and communities understand the PEAP agenda. “And let me tell you, we are going to win this election. We are going to win this election because the poverty in Bayelsa is naked for everybody to see.
“I don’t have the money they have. In any case, I’m not even afraid of the money, it’s my money, our money that they are bringing. It’s your schools, it’s your economy, it’s your agriculture they are going to be bringing. They are gathering it to come and buy people for four hours. “If the people say they don’t want me, I’m not desperate to be governor. I will go and face my work. But young people must get up, it is you that are graduating and there is no job, it is our mothers that have nothing to do anymore, and businesses are leaving the state because it’s no longer conducive for them to stay. This is the liberation that Bayelsans have been waiting for.”All rights reserved.
