The Nation Newspaper Bayelsa’s poverty index, evidence of PDP’s failure, says LP candidate
The Labour Party governorship candidate in the forthcoming election in Bayelsa, Udengs Eradiri has described as alarming and disastrous the ranking of the state as the second poorest in the country, after Sokoto State in the multidimensional poverty index.
The LP candidate, an engineer, said the PDP and Diri had nothing to campaign with. He added that the governor could not wrap his head around the stinking poverty in the state despite the small population of Bayelsa and huge revenue allocations from various sources.Eradiri attributed the woes of Bayelsa to many years of cluelessness, incompetence, avarice, profligacy and anti-people policies of the PDP insisting that the current administration had no idea of how to tackle the issues.
