Governor of Bayelsa State, Duoye Diri.
The Bayelsa State Government has resolved the lingering leadership tussle in the Twon-Brass Kingdom following its intervention and the agreement of the feuding parties to immediately withdraw all pending court cases relating to the dispute.
The government also directed all government-recognised communities in the state to administer their affairs based on constitutions that align with the provisions of the state Community Administration and Chieftaincy Law to ensure effective grassroots leadership.
The Deputy Governor, Dr Peter Akpe, disclosed this at a meeting with the leadership of the five communities in the Twon-Brass Kingdom and other top government officials at Government House, Yenagoa, on Thursday.
He urged the people to complement government efforts in sustaining the prevailing peace in the state.
