Seriake Dickson


LAGOS APRIL 19TH (NEWSRANGERS)-Bayelsa State Governor, the Henry Seriake Dickson has condemned what he called the constant demonization of the Peoples’ Democratic Party, PDP, by the APC. He described the action of APC as childish and uncalled for.
While noting that the looters lists were a distraction on the polity, the governor advised the Federal Government to deliver on their promise to Nigerians.
In a statement made available to NewsRangers, he lamented the spate of senseless killings in Nigeria and urged the APC-led Federal Government to focus on tackling insecurity and economic recession instead of distracting Nigerians with the so called looters lists.
His words, ”This country needs two strong political parties. A united not fragmented party in government, and a cohesive and clear-headed opposition party. The constant demonization of the PDP by the APC, for me, is childish and uncalled for. I have the feeling that the APC, though in power, still behaves like a party in the opposition and on a campaign mode. I believe the APC has failed on its promise to Nigerians. They have failed to secure the country. The country is on a precipice. I think they should have done better than they are doing right now.
“The PDP made its mistakes but it achieved a lot for our democracy and our country. There is too much division in the country right now, and the Federal Government has to unify the country. They should look at the wanton killings in the country not only by Boko Haram, but by the herdsmen and arrest the ugly situation.
