Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State has stated that his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been adopted by the Ijaw people as their political party, noting that, the main opposition party in the state, All Progressives Congress (APC) will be defeated in the December 5 governorship election.

Dickson who is seeking reelection said this at the formally declaration of his intention to seek re-election on the platform of the PDP. “Having listened to our people and to avoid going back to Egypt, I have decided to announce my formal entry into the Bayelsa State governorship race on the platform of PDP to consolidate on my achievements. I count on you and God,” he said.

“Bayelsa state has no room for APC; the other party has no message for Bayelsans. We don’t even know their officials. The only thing they are relying on is federal might, security agencies and INEC. But we have you (Bayelsa people) and God. The good news is that they cannot win this state, they are not on ground in this state.
