Bayelsa Employs 50 To Boost Dev
Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State has given approval to the Capital City Development Authority (CCDA) to employ 50 persons to boost its workforce and ensure a modern city.
Dickson gave the approval at the inauguration of the authority’s Development Control Equipment at the premises of the agency on Sani Abacha Expressway, Yenagoa recently.
Dickson said the purpose of the equipment was to make Yenagoa a decent, clean, modern and well planned capital city.
He said that government was determined to change the face of Yenagoa from a slum to a modern city.
“You can see all the development going on in the state, including road and bridge constructions among other infrastructure development.
“All these will come to naught if the residents of Yenagoa do not understand our vision and where we are taking our state to,’’ he said.
He reminded the CCDA of its responsibility to ensure that building permits were issued to persons who complied with the law and those who refused to comply should also be punished accordingly.
Dickson equally mandated the CCDA to also ensure that structures that did not conform to the regulations of the Yenagoa Master Plan were demolished.
He directed the Executive Secretary of CCDA, Chief Ige Idaba, and his team to formally invite developers to submit their building plans within a stipulated time in line with the agency’s new mandate.
The governor urged Bayelsans and residents of Yenagoa who owned property to visit CCDA to regularise their building plans.
In his remarks, the Commissioner for the Capital City Development Authority, Mr Zuwa Konuga, said the equipment was provided to enable the authority to perform its duty maximally.
