“In the past four years, the state has witnessed transformation and we are ready to do more.
“We will consolidate and expand security in the next four years; this victory is ours and I want us to build a strong synergy to accelerate development of Bayelsa.
“I must say that my government is ready to work with the Federal Government in ensuring that the issue of kidnap and oil pipeline vandalism is properly checkmated.
