As Bayelsans join the rest of the country and the world to celebrate the New Year, Governor Seriake Dickson has assured the people of the State that his Restoration Government would engender more development, peace and prosperity for the citizenry.
Governor Dickson gave the assurance in his New Year message to the people of the State.
He said Government would keep faith with its commitment to further consolidate on its programmes and projects, as most of them would be inaugurated this year as part of activities to commemorate 2 years of the Restoration Government on the 14th of February, this year.
The Governor, who addressed the people of the State on radio and television, expressed the hope that this year will bring about the much needed development given the substantial investments that have been made to enhance security, education, infrastructure and manpower development.
Others include promotion of good governance, diversification of the economy through tourism and agriculture, health, power generation, sports development, judiciary and health.
According to him, when these projects are completed they will stand as a lasting legacy of his administration for the present and future generation of Bayelsans.
Governor Dickson equally urged the people to be grateful to God for His mercies and abundant blessings and be prayerful that the New Year will be better than the previous one.
He also enjoined the people of the State to demonstrate the virtues of love in all they do, think and say to promote peaceful and harmonious co-existence.
