“For us at the Goodluck Jonathan Foundation, our gesture, today, is a way of complimenting the efforts of different state governments by providing these palliatives to help cushion the economic impacts in many homes.

“This presentation is an ongoing process, and we are determined to cover other states in the country. So far, we have covered 20 states and some IDPs in the FCT.”

Governor Douye Diri, who was represented by his Chief of Staff, Benson Agadaga, expressed gratitude to the GJF for the support.

He said the state government would identify with the GJF as its vision and mission were in line with the prosperity agenda of the present administration.

Agadaga said: “We look forward to partnering with your foundation in more areas so that we can build a peaceful, prosperous and inclusive Bayelsa.”
