Gov Dickson Receives 1,000 APC Defectors In Bayelsa.

Bayelsa state governor Seriake Dickson at weekend received about 1, 000 youths from the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the Southern Ijaw local government area into the fold of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Speaking at the event, the governor said the future of the state and the Ijaw nation was in their hands and challenged them to stand firm and defend their votes.  Governor Dickson said that anyone who loved the Ijaw nation would not have anything to do with the APC and congratulated them for dumping it for the PDP.



The governor, who was elated by the decision of the youth, later renamed the group as Patriotic Bayelsa Youth Forum, as he praised the leader, Okilo Matthew, describing him as a true Ijaw man.
He urged them to get the group ready for the task ahead, adding that he would encourage them to enable them increase their membership and become relevant in the scheme of things.
Dickson assured the youth of adequate security during and after the election, as he enjoined them not to be intimidated by any threats from the APC.
Leadership.
