The State Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Mr. Daniel Iworiso-Markson, described the murder of Seiyefa as shocking, reprehensible and unacceptable.
He said that the government would do everything to ensure that those who perpetrated the dastardly act were fished out and brought to justice.
The commissioner said that the Government was elected primarily to bring peace, security development and stability to the state and would not condone the murder of innocent people.
Iworiso-Markson urged the people of the state to be united as the government intensifies efforts to rid Bayelsa of cultists and criminal elements who place no value on human life.
He said that the government was in touch with the police authorities in the state whose men had commenced immediate investigation to unravel to those behind the heinous act.
The Government's Spokesman also called on the people to volunteer relevant information to the police and relevant bodies on the activities of the miscreants involved in all manner of criminalities in the state.
According to him, what Bayelsa needs at the moment was intensified concerted action against the murderers of Seiyefa and their cohorts and not the apportioning òf blames.
He said, "The Government òf Bayelsa received with shock the gruesome murder of a 100 level student of the Niger Delta University by people suspected to be cultists on a robbery mission.
"The government condemns with all vehemence this collective assault on our humanity as a people and would do all within our power to address this provocative act.
"Government calls for the cooperation of all our citizens in the days ahead as deliberate efforts would be made to go after those who have declared war on our peace and security.
"This is a task that would involve everybody. We all need to take responsibility for our collective security.
"We must all collectively condemn this and rise up to confront these criminal gangs terrorizing our neighborhoods. The perpetrators are not spirits, they live among us. Let us not be silent. Let's not be afraid or shy away from reporting them because it could be anybody.
"Government commiserates with the family of the late Seiyefa and assures that the killers would not go unpunished."
