2016 GUBER ELECTION:GOV DICKSON TO EMERGE SOLE PDP FLAGBEARER

Indications have emerged that Bayelsa State governor, Seriake Dickson, would emerged as the consensus candidate of the People Democratic Party, PDP in the forthcoming gubernatorial election in the state. It was also learnt that following heightened political activities in the state ahead of the election slated for later in the year, various groups are said to have endorsed the governor and more of such endorsements were also believed to be in the offing. Sources in Wadata Plaza, PDP Headquatres in Abuja said on Monday that it was a decision already concluded by the national leadership because conducting a primary would not be in the interest of the party.The source, who is a key member of the party’s decision making body, said various issues were considered before arriving at the position which, he said, were all about the chances of the PDP to win the state in the next governorship election.“Despite opposition to the governor, the party’s leadership thought it wise to give automatic ticket to Dickson because members were convinced that he was actually on the ground in Bayelsa State.
