Former Governor of Bayelsa State, Seriake Dickson, has offered reasons for his noticeable absence from official functions organised by the administration of Governor Douye Diri, saying it is deliberate and in consonance with his values and principles.The ex-governor, in a statement issued and signed by him, dissociated himself from attacks against the present administration in the state.
"My role and my duty as a former governor and the first governor to have done eight years, who midwifed the process of re-election, is to advise, support, and pray for the success of this administration. My take is that every person in the current administration at all levels, beginning with the governor is part of our team.
"Their mission is to pull down dependable and loyal party members and undermine critical stakeholders just for their selfish personal political agenda. I believe the governor knows this too. "No one has a greater stake in the governor’s success than me. I am aware of the concerns raised about the distance I have kept since leaving office. This is deliberate and in consonance with my values and principles.
"In the process, where he deems it, he can consult stakeholders for their inputs and advice and that the governor does with me and others. This is why we did not enter into any agreement nor give the governor any condition for my and our full and total support other than to do his best for the state and the Ijaw nation and in doing so, he has our continuous support.
