Dickson appoints 60 new aides — five weeks to guber poll by References(op): 8:37am On Oct 11, 2019
Seriake Dickson, governor of Bayelsa state, has appointed 60 new special advisers.

This development was announced in a statement signed on Thursday by Fidelis Soriwei, chief press secretary to the governor.

The appointees, drawn from the eight local government areas of the state, Soriwei said would help the government finish well.

“His Excellency the Governor of Bayelsa State, the Honourable Henry Seriake Dickson, has approved the appointment of 60 new Special Advisers as part of the deliberate efforts to enable the Restoration Government to finish strong in the avowed commitment to deliver effective governance to the good people of Bayelsa State,” the statement read.

The appointment comes weeks to the state’s governorship election fixed for November 16.

Soriwei further said the “governor has directed the caucuses to nominate women for appointment as special advisers next week, in areas where they have not been considered for appointment.

“However, the government and the party deplore the ungrateful and unpatriotic attitude of a few appointees who have been sustained and recognised in the midst of far more qualified persons for over seven years but are falling prey to the antics of the All Progressives Congress which is inducing party members with money and fake promises.

“While the government wishes them well in their new endeavours, it is pertinent to note that for every appointee, the PDP has several other more qualified people who are ready and willing to be trusted with such privileged positions of responsibility.”

Dickson, who is completing a second term, have had over 2000 appointees in his cabinet since he got reelected in 2016.

Yeye dey smell. Governance is a joke in Nigeria so anything goes. What impact will these 60 new SA's make in less than 3 months? Never mind they will still go home with a good pay for doing God knows what.
The president always gets the bulk of the blame but these clowns occupying government houses all over the country are also major contributors to the lack of development in the country.

These aides are strictly for the election; mobilisers, Agents, share the money peeps, etc etc.
It doesn't make it right though, but such stuffs appeal to us here.

cry A man with over 2000 appointees and now 60 new aides and yet foot dragging to pay just the paltry N30,000 minimum wage. It shows that Nigeria is doomed with a very wicked elite with mumu and docile masses that allows this mess.

I agree with you to an extent, the president supposed to lead by example others will follow, but what do we have a president who set more confusion than those following.

It is now that he wants to be serious about work, when his tenure is almost over. He is simply making a fool of Bayelsans.

Dickson is wise. He knows government is about to close so everyone should quickly cash out while it lasts. grin

60? For what exactly? And to think the miscreants ipob youths won't see anything wrong with this but will instead focus on the south west.

And they even said they picked people who weren't so qualified ahead of people who are more qualified, how shameless. And the Ipobs and massob let's them get away with this?

How shameless, how disgusting.

In a Federal system, the President does not have to set examples.

In the U.S, there are quite a number of states that are more forward-looking on a number of issues than the U.S Federal government.

These governors need more scrutiny in their activities but sadly tribal bigotry often prevents us from scrutinizing them as well as we should; as the governors of the respective states are almost always of the same tribe with the people they govern.
