The Peoples Democratic Party on Thursday at its zonal office in Port-Harcourt, Rivers State screened its gubenatorial aspirants for Bayelsa governorship election. Among them was the incumbent Governor, Hon. Henry Seriake Dickson and three other aspirants.
The Governor called on other aspirants to abide by the outcome of all the processes and respect the organs and the leadership of the party.
He made the call in an interview with newsmen, shortly after participating in the screening exercise at the South-South PDP Zonal office in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, ahead of the party’s primaries scheduled to take place on the 24th of this month.
While describing the screening exercise as successful, the Governor said, the PDP is a party that believes in the practice of democratic principles, noting that other candidates in the governorship race needed to be encouraged to participate in any electoral process, in line with the tenets as enshrined in the constitution.
Governor Dickson said, he regards members of the party, who have expressed their intention to contest in the governorship election, as brothers.
