THE PEAP AGENDA -

The PEAP (People, Education, Agriculture, Power) Agenda is a well-articulated list or outline of things to be done to enable us take Bayelsa state from its current state to a more virile and productive state.

The Agenda outlines a deliberate course of action that is tailored as follows:

The First "P" represents THE PEOPLE
This is a deliberate policy of engaging the people and making them part of governance. The People will participate in the government and would be inclusive in the decision making and running of the government. The Engagement of people will bring Renewed Health Care, Housing, Welfare, Water and Sanitation.

The “E” represents EDUCATION - A deliberate effort that will see to upgrading of all our educational Policies and Facilities including Infrastructure.  Intensification of Skills Acquisition, Digital Education, ICT Revolution, and Human Capacity Development. Scholarships would be readily available for Bayelsans to Study both within and outside the state and would be made to mandatory serve the state and contribute their quota to its development after their training and Study.

The “A” represents AGRICULTURE - A deliberate effort that will rejuvenate homegrown agriculture first to ensure that there is food sufficiency in Bayelsa as we begin to produce more than 50% of our food and embrace commercial Agriculture where we begin to use our produce as raw materials for the production of essentials like Sugar, Rice, and other foods that we can export for financial gains for both the state and its citizens. We shall set up a food processing facility at the Bayelsa Airport to complement food processing and preservation to enhance our Agricultural products and food export.

The Last “P” represents POWER - A deliberate policy that will ensure that enough Power is Provided for Bayelsans by acquiring off-the-shelf power turbines already available in advanced countries. The exploration of the abundant gas being flared, will be piped to power Industrial Hubs and areas will attract investors and industrialization to Bayelsa. Bayelsa State will be actively involved in the Oil and Gas Sector as we will revive, strengthen, and get Bayelsa Oil Company that has been non-operational back on track. This will stimulate the oil and Gas activities in the state and would naturally lead to the provision of Jobs and employment for the youths in Bayelsa.
