The Restoration Government under Henry Seriake Dickson has once again become the first Niger Delta States to show quintessential love for Fulani herdsmen by allocating a verse land in Okotiama Town, Yenagoa LGC for cattle ranch.
This is one blow too many on the head of Yenagoa from this administration. I really don't know what Yenagoa deed or failed to do, to attract so much ill will from this government
The most annoying part of the drama is that after all these messes on us, our leaders who are privileged to be restoration slaves would be used to defend the government and even attack the targeted victims of the annihilation who protests against the obnoxious and lives threatening policy.
Several months ago, our son in the executive arm of government was sent to tell the public that Yenagoa has no land left for building of tertiary institution. This time, may be a woman in another arm of the same government will tell us how Gbarain in Yenagoa has got land for cattle rearing.
Yenagoa, I pity you!
I have said it before, I'm saying it now and I'm ready to keep saying it until our people wakes up from their politically hypnotized slumber, that our problem is FOLO-FOLO & FEAR-FEAR SYNDROME (F⁴ Syndrome).
Yenagoa LGC has the highest voting strength in Bayelsa state but we are the most oppressed, marginalized and most pauperised set of people in our dear state because we fail to bargain with this special political strength of ours. Yenagoa aught to be a beautiful bride to all serious minded political parties but we give ourselves so cheaply to one and same political Juggernauts who do not care about us. ISN'T THIS MYOPIA?
Let our leaders go to the negotiation table and threaten mass defection or protest voting against any party that refuses to give its flag to Yenagoa or at worse a running mate and you will see the drama that will unfold.
Waste no effort in the argument, when Yenagoa sneezes, Bayelsa catches a cold! No party can win without us. We can make Bayelsa ungovernable at anytime we notice any administration's determination to exterminate our existence.
This is not a problem for Gbarain alone. Whether Epie/Atissa, Okordia/zarama/Biseni or Gbarain/Ekpetiama, we are one Yenagoa LGC. Injury to the eye is injury to the nose also. Let us unitedly say no to the cattle ranch proposed to be in Gbarain.
