That which started like a
joke is fast becoming a reality. Yes! Leadership is one thing that binds all
spheres of life. Not oblivious of this fact, the Bayelsans, among their
contemporaries, have showcased their leadership prowess by taken a step
further. This time around, they have taken politics to the world's most
populated social media platform (Facebook) through the creation of a community
known as "Bayelsa Facebook Community".
Currently, there is an
ongoing gubernatorial election in this community on Facebook. An election that
will give birth to first governor and deputy governor of the community. It
might sound hilarious but don't forget that big things they say start little. These
persons might one day become the governor and deputy governor of Bayelsa State.
They might even turn things around for the betterment of the state.
