Bayelsa guber: PDP aspirant speaks on dumping party for APC
The Senior Advocate of Nigeria, who described politics as a service to humanity, is among the PDP National Campaign Councils for Bayelsa and Kogi States.George-Ikoli, an aspirant in the recently concluded governorship primary in Bayelsa State, believes that history is on the side of the PDP and that the people are not in a hurry to swap PDP for an uncertain opposition party.
“I personally believe in man’s innate ability to reform and reinvent himself and as such the need to rebuild through service is uppermost in my mind. I may not have succeeded in my bid to become governor but I don’t believe that should rob me of my desire to deliver service to my nation. “If we are here to serve the generality, does jumping ship serve that purpose? These are the real questions one must answer in the arduous process of decision making
‘’I believe there was a sense of exclusionism within the party from the onset of the entire process as it seemed only a select group within the party had the anointing of the establishment to contest. This I believe had the unintended consequences of degenerating into an ‘us versus them’ contest depending on which side of the divide one stood.He added, “The governor as any normal politician cannot be begrudged. He has his rights to participation and to have a favorite in the race.
