Ahead of the April 11 house of assembly election, Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State, has urged the people of Bayelsa to keep faith with the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, as the state is the traditional home and stronghold of the party since the advent of the present democratic dispensation in 1999.
According to a statement released on Monday by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Daniel Iworiso-Markson, the Governor made the appeal after a crucial meeting with key political stakeholders in the state in Yenagoa.
He noted that the people of the state, particularly the political class, owed the party a duty to remain loyal and committed to its principles, goals and ideals, which had become a part of the state.
Dickson noted that as one of the major beneficiaries of the party in time past, it has become even more expedient for the people to remain resolute in their support for every programme of the PDP with the governorship and state house of assembly elections still to come.
He stressed that Bayelsa could not afford to sit on the fence now, but maintain its ever relevant and dominant posture in the affairs of the party.
He used the occasion to reiterate his call on every Bayelsa indigene, who truly loves and wishes the state well, to turn out en masse and vote massively for all PDP candidates in next Saturday’s state house of assembly elections.
