Seriake Dickson Condemns Declaration Of Bayelsa Gov Election Results

The Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson, has condemned the Independent National Electoral Commission for announcing the results of the governorship election in the state.

He noted that the November 16 governorship election was marred with brigandage and violence.

Governor Dickson in a statement through his Chief Press Secretary, Fidelis Soriwei, stated this at the praise night for November held on Monday in Yenagoa.

The Bayelsa State Governor claimed that voting did not hold in places like Nembe, Ogbia, Southern Ijaw and parts of the Yenagoa local government areas.

Dickson who compared the electoral process to his political experience in 2012, urged the people of the state to keep faith with God as there would be light at the end of the tunnel.

He said, “It is at times like this that children of the most-high God should praise and worship even more. Don’t give up because you’re children of the most high.”
