Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of Rivers State congratulated Bayelsa State Governor Seriake Dickson for winning the recent governorship election.
The chairman, Felix Obuah made a statement which says that the PDP’s victory over All Progressive Congress (APC) is a political statement which shows that the PDP remains a grassroots party and the people’s first choice, notwithstanding the politics of intimidation and coercion being employed by the APC to thwart the will of the people.
Obuah also commended the people of Bayelsa for their steadfastness and resilience, in the face of several attempts to silence the voice of the majority, which eventually settled the month-long impasse in favour of the PDP.
He stated that all the party want is a conducive environment and level-playing ground for a keen contest, adding that the PDP has what it takes to win in Bayelsa and Rivers any day.
He enjoined the people of Bayelsa and numerous PDP members to key into the developmental agenda of the Dickson administration for the overall development of the state and also remain vigilant and alert to the APC’s propaganda and antics, so that they would not be deceived.
He said further that APC has no plans for the Bayelsa people other than to further impoverish the state by conniving with their paymasters at the centre to liquidate the remaining state resources.
Obuah felicitates with Dickson saying he is indeed proud of his efforts and insistence on his rights to have the kind of leader you want. The Almighty God that heard and granted your prayers will never fail you.
He added that PDP is now wiser and has no alternative but to improve the welfare of the people and the infrastructural development of the state.
