Bayelsa state governor, Douye Diri, has commended the exemplary character of his predecessor, Senator Seriake Dickson, saying the former governor does not act like a political godfather.
Diri also said their relationship remains cordial and unbroken.
The Bayelsa governor stated this at Toru-Orua, Senator Dickson’s hometown in the Sagbama local government area of the state during his usual Christmas visit.
He said since leaving office in 2020, the former governor had supported him and had not been overbearing.
Diri’s chief press secretary, Daniel Alabrah, quoted the governor as saying that the unity between him and the immediate past governor, who now represents Bayelsa West in the Senate, had contributed greatly to the peace and development of the state.
