Gov. Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa has urged the people of Bayelsa to keep faith with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as they go to the polls on Nov. 16 to elect his successor.

Dickson, who made the call in a radio broadcast, on Sunday night, monitored by Nigeria News Agency in Yenagoa, noted that voting against the PDP would amount to betrayal of trust to PDP faithful nationwide.

He said that the faithful of the party who supported former President Goodluck Jonathan to become President would be disappointed if the people of Bayelsa dumped PDP for the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC).

He advised the people to make informed choices between Sen. Douye Diri of the PDP and Chief David Lyon of the APC haven heard the candidates sell their plans as they canvassed for votes in a peaceful atmosphere.

“I advise Bayelsa people in their own interest to keep faith with PDP; the followers of PDP across the country who made sacrifices and supported one of our own to become President will feel disappointed if we abandon PDP.

“It is on record that some of them were attacked for supporting former President Goodluck Jonathan and so it is only reasonable that we remain with PDP,” Dickson said.

On the purported rift with Jonathan over the choice of the PDP governorship candidate, Dickson blamed ‘political jobbers’ for making misleading comments and misrepresenting his actions.

Dickson said that those who claimed to be working for Jonathan did not mean well for the former President.

Election is just few days to come.

He is trying to push the bulk on Jonathan and thereby forcing him to react..

It's obvious Jonathan wants Buhari to probe Dickson.

Defeat stiring at him and his annointed candidate already

Division statement of a drowning man.
Looking critically at d statement, he is neither selling his candidate nor his achievement but PDP .This is bcoz he has done nothing to point at,but what marvels me is dat those ppl criticizing,prayed n praying for Buhari n Bello's lost in d poll are d one doing online campaign for a draconic failure. u can't b double standard in life .
Yes bello may have have failed but u can't crucify him n eulogise his like. Some ppl decided to go for him bcoz of all dis double standard issue, after all my own in d East here was elected seeing dat he has done absolutely nothing. What did he do,he started sharing kerosene .
