Breaking: Dickson's Youth Devt. Commissioner Dumps PDP For APC at APC Secretariat, Yenagoa

Ahead of the 2019 general elections, a serving Commissioner for Youth Development in Bayelsa State, Hon. Ibarakumo Otobo, under the Seriake Dickson-led administration has dumped the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The 33-year old commissioner whose news of appointment in February 2018 received widespread commendation from youths in the state says he has resigned and is joining the APC because he lost his right to freedom in the PDP.

He said "I am a man of very strong character and you all know me for that. I don't work with failure.

"So as a citizen of Nigeria, I have the constitutional right to choose the party of my choice. From today henceforth, I am for APC and good bye to PDP."

Presenting the party's symbol to the decampee, the leaders of the party, Chief Timipre Sylva that was represented by Hon. Isreal Sunny-Goli said "this is sign that we are taking over from PDP.

"This means more persons would soon leave the PDP for APC. And when we take over, we will wipe out poverty the PDP has brought upon Bayelsans."
