Bayelsa PDP Power Tussle: Jonathans Accused Again

2019: Jonathan, wife plot to hijack PDP structures in Bayelsa
Source;  The Nation

Former President Goodluck Jonathan and his wife, Patience, are working desperately to hijack the strictures of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of the 2019 general elections.
 It was gathered that the former first family was scheming to ensure that Governor Seriake Dickson lacked the capacity to make an input in selecting his successor.
 Besides, it was learnt that Jonathan desired to use the control of the state’s PDP platform to present a strong argument on why he should fly the Presidential flag of the party in 2019 despite reports that the position had been zoned to the north.
 A source and PDP chieftain, who spoke in confidence, said the plot was real, adding that for the former President to present himself as a candidate he must be seen to be in charge of the state

He said despite the efforts of Dickson, the wife of the former President had never liked him and had been working intensely to either remove him or wrestle the party structure from him.
 The source said Jonathan and his wife were not happy that Bayelsa was not among the state’s executive committees dissolved by the National Chairman of the party, Senator Ahmed Makarfi.
 He said Patience later mandated Jonathan’s godson, Mr. George Turnah, who is being tried by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), to write a petition against Dickson and the PDP leadership in the state

  1. Dickson can not select governor in bayelsa state except he has no respect for his leader. By the way, did he rule the people of bayelsa to expectations?
