Vice President, Yemi Osibanjo is set to receive over seventy leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Bayelsa State led by the former Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Timi Alaibe to the All Progressive Congress (APC) in the state.


Osinbanjo, according to the leadership of the APC, will receive the PDP defectors at a mega rally slated for Saturday 15th of August, 2015.

Among the PDP bigwigs set to dump the party include the immediate past Senator representing Bayelsa West Senatorila district, Senator Heineken Lokpobiri; ex-former Acting Governors Nestor Binabo and Werinipre Seibarugu, former Deputy Governor of Bayelsa, Peremobowei Ebebi, Senator John Brambaifa, Senator Clever Ikisipo and Ambassador Emmanuel Otiotio.

Also listed are the former House of Representatives member, Dr. Stella Dorgu, former NDDC board chairman, Prof. Tarila Tebepah, Rear Admiral FBI Porbeni (rtd.), the former Reps members – Christopher Enai, Warman Ogoriba, Bonus Indiamaowei, Nelson Belief, Nadu Karibo, former Secretary to the State Government, Chief Gideon Ekeowe and former Deputy Speaker, Fini Angaye.
Most of the latest defectors, it was learnt, decided to dump the PDP due to the influence and assurance from the former NDDC boss,Timi Alaibe.
Alaibe, according to informed sources, was instrumental to the defection of some former commissioners in the state.

Confirming the decision of the former PDP leaders to defect to APC, Chief Alex Ekiotenne, former Honorary Adviser to Governor Seriake Dickson, said the defectors also comprised Chief Hings Dumbo, Selebina Saboh, Prince Abeki, Mrs. Tonye Apreala, Miebi Biribina (philanthropist), and many former special advisers and Governor representatives, among others.

He said the defectors would formally declare for the APC at a mega rally on Saturday, August 15, 2015, in the state.

The defectors would be received by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, National Chairman, APC, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, five governors, former Governor Timipre Sylva and top stalwarts of the party including its Chairman, Chief Tiwei Orunimighe,” he said.

The PDP family in the state it would be recalled had been enmeshed in crisis since it conducted its last primary elections for the state and National Assembly polls.

The development had led to divisions, infighting, suspensions, expulsions and defections of of its members.

Also, efforts by former President Goodluck Jonathan, the party’s Board of Trustees and critical stakeholders to resolve the crisis in the PDP had yet to achieve the desired results.

Defectors? Lmao! Political prostitutes. That is, without mincing words.
In politics, no permanent enemies but permanent interest.

I wouldn't be surprised if APC wins the upcoming Gubernatorial Poll in Bayelsa!









Meanwhile, there is every possibility that APC will win Kogi State Governorship Election!

Osinbajo your life is important to me ooo


Don't fall on politicians trap

APC gaining more ground!
APC conquering more territories!!
APC enlarging their coast!!!

while PDP keep on wailing...

All these heavy weight from PDP alone and from small Bayelsa?
With the exit of these politrickcians from PDP uncle Jona sure has loads of work to do back home as a PDP national leader.
Politics; no permanent enemies but permanent interest

This is bad for the polity.

If PDP loses Bayelsa to the APC in the upcoming gubernatorial election that would be a big blow, shame and loss to GEJ, politically

I have this feeling that APC will get Bayelsa come next election.

Wait and see!

These defections are just ploy to oust dickson, the Election in Bayelsa is not going to be easy sha!

I can smell PEJ handowork in this.

They are all eyeing government house.

Anything to oust Governor Dickson by Mama Piss is welcomed. Shebi she is now an APC supporter abi? She is now supporting Timipre Silva as the next governor of Bayelsa State. Even Jonathan no get mouth!

I dey laugh o.

I believe this election will be tough. Even some people's from Sagbama don't want Dickson back in second term. Exept pdp find another credible candidate, we're tired of them.

Although it will be tough, but APC taking Bayelsa will be brutality on PDP

PDP going down daily, na wa o
