At last, the All
Progressives Congress has captured a state in the south-south that used to be a
strongh0old of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP). The governorship election is
almost over and the APC candidate David Lyon is leading by a wide margin.
PDP Chieftains such as Timi Frank and even Goodluck Nathan felt that
Douye Diri was not a popular candidate but governor Dickson made the same
mistake as other governors by presenting him and working for him to emerge as
the PDP flag bearer.
Jonathan was reported to have visited Buhari over the governorship
election and may have likely endorsed the APC candidate who is currently
coasting to victory.
Bayelsa state is an oil-producing state and it is located in the heart of
the Niger Delta. It is a very big victory for the APC and will boost their
chances in future elections.
