Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson, has inaugurated a 10-member Land Use and Allocation Committee, with a declaration that henceforth, government will be responsible for the provision and sale of land to members of the public for private, commercial and industrial purposes.
Governor Dickson said that the move was to check the incidence of land racketeering and unplanned development of the state, especially the Yenagoa metropolis.
The governor described the committee as a special standing body, put in place to advise the government on the use and management of public land, in line with the Land Use Act of the federation.
He directed the committee to commence the immediate allocation and sale of plots of land in the first phase of the Government Reserved Area, as the Government had already completed the survey and planning of the area.
