Governor of Bayelsa State, Senator Douye Diri, has led members of the State Executive Council (Exco) in a valedictory session in honour of the late Hon. Ken Kayama, former Commissioner for Youths and Sports in the state.
The solemn session, held on Thursday at the State Executive Council Chambers, Government House, Yenagoa, brought together serving and former council members, top government officials, and associates of the deceased. Tributes were paid to celebrate the life, service, and contributions of the late cabinet member to the development of Bayelsa State.
In his remarks, Governor Diri described the occasion as a moment of deep reflection, noting the inevitability of death regardless of status or accomplishments. He said the valedictory session was organised to formally recognise and honour the legacy of Hon. Kayama, who served the state with commitment and dedication.
“Moments such as this remind us of the stark reality of life—that no matter our status or accomplishments, death is an inevitable end,” the governor said. “Today, it is Ken Kayama, and we are called to honour his name and service, which is what we are doing here.”
Governor Diri, on behalf of the Bayelsa State Government and its people, extended heartfelt condolences to the wife, children, siblings, and the entire Kayama family, praying for strength and comfort as they mourn their loss.
The late Hon. Ken Kayama was remembered by speakers at the session as a passionate public servant whose tenure as Commissioner for Youths and Sports left a positive impact on youth development and sports administration in the state.
