Governor of Bayelsa state, Senator Douye Diri, has hinted that members of other political parties might be in the new cabinet to be unveiled soon. Governor Diri stated this Thursday shortly after the weekly five-kilometre Prosperity Walk, which terminated at the Samson Siasia Sports Complex, Yenagoa. Diri alongside his deputy, Senator Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo, were elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the November 11, 2023 governorship poll and were sworn in for a second term on February 14, 2024. The governor said he would consult widely and ensure he picks his cabinet members from across political parties in the state in order to form an inclusive government. He said: "l want to assure you that we will not take long in bringing our cabinet back because we are not going to create human beings from heaven. It is still the same Bayelsa people that will form my cabinet and we know ourselves".
