dc.descriptionThe name Ba-yel-sa is derived from the three acronyms BALGA for Brass Local Government Area. YELGA for Yenagoa Local Government Area, and SALGA for Sagbama Local Government Area. It is thus composed of the first two letters of BALGA, the first three letters of YELGA, and the first two letters of SALGA. The three local governments were combined to form a Senatorial District for the purposes of elections into the federal Senate all the 1979 national elections. Since then, Brass Local Government Area has been subdivided into Ogbia Local Government Area, Nembe Local Government Area, and Brass Local Government Area. Yenagoa Local Government Area of 1979 has become Southern Ijaw Local Government Area, Yenagoa Local Government Area, and Kolokuma/Opokuma Local Government Area. Sagbama Local Government area has been subdivided into Ekeremor Local Government Area and Sagbama Local Government Area
