Chief David Lyon, the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Bayelsa State, has promised to correct all the mistakes of the Peoples Democratic Party-led government, if elected as governor.

Lyon, who pledged to be a servant leader, if elected, gave the promise on Tuesday during the launching of the APC governorship campaign organisation at the David Lyon Campaign Office in Yenagoa.

He said that the PDP government in the state had impoverished the people in the past years, adding that people must all unite to send the party packing come Nov. 16.

According to him: “We must work hard; we must be united; the victory of the party lies on those of us who are here today.

“We must be courageous; I know we will face issues but we must stand firm to see that we defeat PDP come Nov. 16.
