Bayelsa State Governor, Senator Duoye Diri, yesterday, called on the Federal Government to amend electoral laws in order to reduce endless litigations after election.

 

Governor Diri made the call at the Glory of God Chapel, Bayelsa State Government House during a thanksgiving ceremony to commemorate his on year anniversary in office.

 

Some projects commissioned to mark the celebration are integrated waste incinerator; Kaiama Referral Hospital and newly reconstructed  Imiringi Bridge.

He said if the electoral laws were thoroughly made and guideline were properly adhered to, what happened in Bayelsa wouldn’t have happened.

 

Duoye promised that this year, his administration would work round the clock to recover what was it lost last year due to distractions from litigations.

 

Speaking further, the governor who was visibly elated, listed roads and bridges marked for approval, revealing that contractors have been mobilized to commence work at the Southern ijaw Access Road.
