Bayelsa State

Bayelsa State is a southwestern Nigerian region known for its rich natural resources, especially oil and gas. It covers a small land area mostly made up of river deltas, with many waterways and islands. The state is primarily inhabited by the Ijaw people, who have a vibrant culture rooted in fishing and river-based life. Bayelsa plays a significant role in Nigeria's economy due to its oil production, but it also faces challenges like environmental pollution and development needs. Its landscapes, culture, and economy are closely tied to its aquatic environment.
