A leader of the Peoples Democratic Party in Bayelsa
State, Mr. Bello Bina, has lambasted some anti-
Governor Seriake Dickson politicians for alleging
that he was romancing with the All Progressives
Congress.
Bina, who declared his loyalty to the PDP and
Dickson, said his presence during the last week’s
inspection tour by the Minister of
Environment, Mrs. Amina Mohammed, to Brass
Local Government Area, had nothing to do with
romancing with the APC.
Bina, who is the Chairman of the local government,
said his presence at the tour of the minister was
purely to point out the breach of protocol of her
visit by neither informing the Governor nor the
council.
He stated that the claims of those involved in the
campaign of calumny against his administration of
the council were frivolous and born out of
bellyaching.
Bina, who spoke at a news conference in Yenagoa
on Sunday, said his open expression of displeasure
to the minister was meant to affirm the superiority
of Dickson as the Chief Security Officer of the state.
He stated, “The PDP is in charge of the state and
the local government area. I have taken charge of
Brass LGA as a PDP chairman and the achievements
I have made so far were because of the exemplary
support of the state governor.
“Maybe some of the anti-PDP forces linking me
with the APC are expecting me to kill the
opposition before they will confirm my loyalty. As a
council chairman, I am their father in Brass. These
people don’t like the present peace I have brought
to reign in Brass. I keep saying it that the PDP has
brought development to Brass.
“These politicians, involved in campaign of
calumny, stay in Government House and spread
false rumour. It is because I was not nominated by
them and that Governor in his wisdom found me
worthy and appointed me.
” I am just like a single stick standing in the forest.
If anyone has anything to say against me, they
should come to Brass and show their popularity.
