A member of the Bayelsa State House of Assembly, Hon. Wilson Ayakpo Dauyegha, has stated that the former governor of the state, Dr Serikae Dickson, failed during his tenure as governor of Bayelsa state.
Dauyegha, who is the Deputy Minority Leader as well as the acting National Chairman, APC Assembly Forum disclosed this during an interview with GbaramtuVoice saying that Dickson has failed Bayelsa both as a state governor and he is also not performing now as one of the senators representing the state.
The lawmaker who is presently representing Ekeremor Constituency II in the Bayelsa State House of Assembly and aspiring to become a senator come 2023, was responding to a question on what Dickson is not doing correctly as he is vying for the same position with the former governor stated that the tenure of Serikae Dickson as governor and now as a senator has not affected Bayelsans positively.

He said: “When he was a governor, he did a lot of wrong things. Like the location of the airport, for instance, is wrong and the amount he claims he spent on it. Dickson did not develop Bayelsa State. Sylva and Alamiesiegha had good plans for the state; Dickson came and scattered everything.
“As a commissioner, Dickson did not come close to anybody. Even as a member of the Senate, he has not been doing anything because he knows it is the turn of the people of Ekeremor. He is doing Ayetofele wrestling and football match, buying used cars for some youths so that he will cause violence in Ekeremor because he is known as a violent person. This time around, Ekeremor people will disappoint him because it is their turn and they will stand by it.”
Hon. Dauyegha also heaped praises on the administration of President Buhari saying that despite the challenges the government got from the previous administration, it has been able to provide succor and relief to the citizens.
