The former deputy Governor of Bayelsa State Rt. Hon Peremobowei Ebebi has called on the Governor of the State, Senator Douye Diri, to take advantage of the gale of defections across the Country and join the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
Ebebi, who made the political overtures to the Governor while speaking at the Ekeremor Local Government Area APC stakeholders meeting held in Yenagoa, urged the Governor to follow the footsteps of the Governors of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and join the APC before it is too late.
His words: “At this point, people should take advantage of the momentum of the gale of defections now. I am calling on the Governor of this State and other people that have mistakenly crossed over recently to PDP to retrace their steps and come back to APC now before it is too late. This is the time.
“Governor Diri is not doing badly but if comes over to the APC, I think he will do better. He should stop welcoming people to the PDP that is a sinking boat. PDP is a sinking boat and nobody should enter a sinking boat no matter the temptation because you will sink along with them.”
