The All Progressives Congress in Bayelsa has advised the state
Governor, Seriake Dickson, to begin
the preparation of his handover
notes as victory was sure for the nation’s ruling party in the upcoming
gubernatorial elections.
The
party’s chairman in the state, Chief Tiwei Orunimighe, while receiving
an award in Yenagoa yesterday, stated that the party would win by a
landslide.
“The PDP-led government in Bayelsa State should be preparing its handover notes by now because the APC is winning the governorship election by a landslide,” the opposition party chairman said.
Ahead of the September 22 governorship primary of the APC, Orunimighe gave the assurance that the election would be a watershed in the state’s political history.
He said all the party’s aspirants would be given a level playing field to participate in the primary.
The APC chairman said, “On the September 22 primary of the APC, I want to assure the people of the state and Nigerians that Bayelsa would witness another success in the party.
“It is going to be a very peaceful primary where every aspirant will be given a level playing field to exercise their franchise.
“So, we are confident that the APC is prepared to win and change all things that need to be changed. We will occupy Creek Haven soon.”
Furthermore, he beckoned on the people of Bayelsa to vote for the APC and invite change to the state as the party was the only way forward for the state.
He added, “In the APC, we believe in internal democracy and level playing field for all those who aspire to elective offices.
“Bayelsans have seen that in recent times that the APC is now the only party for them to dream if they want to dream and aspire, if they want to aspire.”
In its reaction, the PDP described as laughable the comments by the APC chairman, saying the APC was dead on arrival in Bayelsa.
In a statement in Yenagoa on Sunday, state Secretary of the PDP, Keku Godspower, said the comments of the APC chair was bereft of knowledge.
The statement noted that the choice of either Timipre Sylva or Timi Alaibe meant that the “APC is dead on arrival.”
