PDP Members Who Defected To APC When Jonathan Lost Are Ijaw Enemies- Gov. Dickson

The Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson, has described
PDP members who defected to APC shortly after Goodluck Jonathan lost the last
presidential election as enemies of the party and the Ijaw Nation at large. He
said most of those who defected from the party sadly gained a lot from the past
administration.

Below is what he said in a statement on Tuesday after a
meeting between himself and some senior members of the PDP in the state under
the aegis of Bayelsa Elders’ Consultative Council in Yenagoa.

“These persons are clearly not for us, they are enemies of
the Ijaw nation and it is sad that people who have benefited immensely from the
PDP and Dr. Jonathan could within so short a time jump ship,” he said.

“And yet they come and deceive us that they love us. These
are not persons to be taken serious and we must not fall prey to their antics.”

The statement also quoted the PDP elders as saying those who left
the party were “fair-weather politicians with savage mentality.”
