Senator Seriake Dickson Dumps PDP, Joins New Party
Former Bayelsa state governor, Senator Seriake Dickson has defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC).
Naija News reports that Dickson, who addressed the media on Thursday, said he is a man of conviction, warning that the PDP is presently in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
He added that the country cannot afford to drift into a one-party state.
Dickson noted that the irreconcilable differences in the PDP shrunk its umbrella which could no longer accommodate many members including himself.
He lamented that the “PDP has lost its voice” on national issues, saying the leadership tussle crippled the party totally.
The lawmaker, however, said the NDC, which was recently registered by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) will now be the desired opposition party in the country.
He enjoined Nigerians to identify and register with the new party for a better Nigeria.
