Bayelsa election: The APC cannot win in a free and fair election – Dickson 

Admin October 4, 2019

Governor Seriake Dickson

Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson has said the APC could not win in a free and fair election in Bayelsa while calling for a violence-free gubernatorial election in the state as the citizens go to the poll on Nov. 16.

Dickson who was confident that the APC  will not win the  election, made the remark while speaking with newsmen on the sidelines of the Third Annual Conference of the Guild of Corporate Online Publishers (GOCOP) in Lagos.

The governor dismissed the claim by Mr Adams Oshiomhole, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), that the APC would win the election.

He however added,  “The election is coming and we call for a free and fair election. We call for impartiality and professionalism on the part of all the agencies and institutions”.

The governor alleged that recent elections in the country had been characterised by violence, stressing that the people Bayelsa should be allowed to vote for a candidate of their choice.

“They should be allowed to vote for a candidate that understands the state, a candidate that will continue with the massive infrastructural development that has come to stay in Bayelsa”, he said.
