The Bayelsa State Government has commenced the construction of a nine-storey civil service secretariat in Yenagoa, a project valued at N46 billion.
The groundbreaking ceremony, held on Saturday, was attended by key government officials, including the Head of Service of the Federation, Mrs. Didi Walson-Jack, who welcomed the initiative.
The project builds on the government’s earlier move in September 2024, when it awarded a N45 billion contract for the secretariat complex as part of efforts to enhance working conditions for civil servants.
