Bayelsa State Governor, Douye Diri
has expressed how the year, 2025 ended for him.

Governor Diri mentioned this at the Lord’s Chosen Church Convention in Imgbidi on Saturday.

According to him, what made the year different was how it ended following the death of his deputy Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo and how the incident shattered his programs.

On December 12, the deputy governor slumped while working in his office, and was immediately rushed to a hospital in Yenagoa, but was later pronounced dead.

Diri said, “From when I assumed office as governor of Bayelsa State, I have never missed the convention. But 2025 became a different year.

“I lost my second in command, the deputy governor of my state and so we ended the year on a very sad note. I am happy again to be here with you.

“I call on politicians, it is not by our powers, it is not by our might, you are elected to serve the people, if you serve the people well, they will stand by you”.
