Bayelsa State and the State of Africa in Diaspora have signed a Memorandom of Understanding (MoU) covering development of the health, education and agricultural sectors.

According to a press release on Thursday October 9, 2025, signed by the Chief Press Secretary, Daniel Alabrah, speaking after the brief signing formalities in Government House, Yenagoa, on Thursday, the Bayelsa Governor, Senator Douye Diri, said the agreement will contribute significantly to development of the state and thanked the Africans in Diaspora for the collaboration.

His words: “We have just witnessed the signing of an agreement. On behalf of our government and the people of our state, we thank you for this. From this moment, you are our development partner and I hope the implementation can go on really fast.

“We need to work together as Africans and tell the story of how Africans are developing Africa. We are looking forward to a robust relationship with you.”
