Bayelsa Election: Speaker And Southern Ijaw LGA Chairman Dumps PDP For APC by Henryjr(op):
Barely six days to the Bayelsa governorship election, the Speaker of the Bayelsa State House of Assembly, Rt Hon Monday Obolo Bobou and his supporters as well as the Chairman of Southern Ijaw Local Government Council. Hon Nigeria Kia has dumped the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for the All Progressive Congress (APC).

The new entrants to the APC are all from Southern Ijaw, the home council of APC governorship candidate, David Lyon.

They were led by the former Special Adviser to Governor Dickson on Waterways Security, Hon Tony Oki, who said their decision to join the APC is premised on the strong indication that Bayelsans are tired of the PDP government, even as he said the APC candidate has a better programme for Bayelsa.

Receiving the new members at different rallies at Olugbobiri, Peremabiri, Ekowe and Oporoma all in Southern Ijaw local government area, Lyon reiterated that APC would defeat the PDP through the ballot and clear the mess that has been heaped on Bayelsans since 2012.

He said if elected, that his administration will ensure the provision of social amenities and ensure that Peremabiri Rice farm receives adequate attention not only for food provision but also for providing gainful employment to the people.

It will pain Gov. Dickson to see this two leaving his camp just exactly when he needed them most. He did so much(including open shootings) to impeach Tonye Isenah to make this guy a speaker few weeks back, and to see him leave is really terrible.


For me, Dickson deserves even worse. It seems Tinubu hasn't revealed all to Dickson how to become a demigod in a state.

Like play like play, APC is about to take over Bayelsa State. If the party can pull this through, it would be the biggest political upset this year.

Apc win in Bayelsa is a political statement that south south is now politically sophisticated.

Pdp is no longer invisible in South South region.

Even from the result of the last presidential election, it is very obvious South south is gradually moving towards APC. Buhari got about 35% of the total vote cast in the region with states like Bayelsa, Delta, Edo, and I think Akwa Ibom electing APC National Assembly members.

If APC can win Bayelsa, the party should be looking towards getting nothing less than 50% of the total vote cast in the south south in 2023 presidential election.

exactly .come 2023 pdp should not expect bloc votes from South South region.Most of the governor's by then re completing their second tenure .they would be pre-ocuppied with the political tussle of installing their stooge as successor which break their ranks.
If Akpabio succed in delivering huge infrastructural project in NDDC like he did as a governor .then Apc will slug it out fiercely with pdp in 2023.
The people no longer follow pdp blindly what they want is good governance.
