The anniversary activities are expected to commence a week before February 14 as Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is expected in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State capital, for the ceremony.

While in Bayelsa, Osinbajo will flag off a bridge across River Nun at Angiama linking Oporoma linking Oporoma, headquarters of the Southern Ijaw Local Government Area.

In the company of his Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Moses Teibowei, Governor Diri had inspected some of the projects at various stages of completion over the weekend.
