Bayelsa: APC Chieftain Commends Jonathan

President Goodluck Jonathan, has been commended for shunning the People’s Democratic Party’s (PDP) gubernatorial campaign grand finale in Bayelsa State and subsequent activities of the party in the state.

Former National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP) and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, who gave the commendation in a statement made available to GreenWhiteGreen on Wednesday, said the former president’s action was a statement signifying the feeling of the people of Bayelsa State.

According to the statement, Dr Jonathan’s absence at the party’s campaign roundoff was the message needed to tell the world that the 20-year rule of the PDP in Bayelsa is at its end, especially as the people of the state had become weary of the party’s rule, which, according to Eze, had not given the people any dividend to show for all the resources that had entered the state’s coffers.

“We gathered that the Governorship Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Senator. Douye Diri, who was to be presented to the former President for endorsement and Official Presentation of Party Flag, was physically enraged with fury, displaying some signs of discomfort and disappointment at the absence of Dr. Jonathan who has been their pillar and source of hope over the years”, Eze said.

He further said the development had further dealt a big blow on the PDP family, scuttling  its chances of projecting a healthy competition with the APC and her governorship candidate, who reportedly enjoys general acceptability among Bayelsa electorate.

Eze’s assertion was despite the fact that his party’s chances in the polls were seriously damaged after an Abuja Federal High Court disqualified his party’s deputy governorship candidate, Senator Biobarakuma Degi-Eremienyo.
