A former Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Mr. Timi Alaibe a few minutes ago declared his ambition to be the next governor of Bayelsa State.

He said he will run a Blue Ocean Economy and invite private sector capital for a sustainable development in the state.

He has also obtained the relevant form from the National Secretariat for the governorship race.

Alaibe, who unveiled his ambition in Abuja, said: “I have had many consultations before declaring my interest. The consultations are still ongoing.

“Essentially, my vision for Bayelsa is that of a shared economic prosperity for the people of the state.

“The vision is about the government as a social investor and the government as an enabler to invite private sector capital…”
