He said: “I came from Calabar to Bayelsa State, it took me like eight days trekking to reach Yenagoa, Bayelsa State.
“I decided to do this because of the love I have for my party the PDP and to celebrate with Senator Douye Diri over his victory at the Supreme Court and subsequent swearing-in as the Bayelsa State governor.
“This act is to show how I love and cherish my party, PDP, and to encourage the distinguished gentleman, who has come to work for prosperity, growth and development of Bayelsa State.
“I have never had any interaction with the governor or discussed with him, but I’ve been following him since his days in the House of Representatives and Senate, and I know he is the type of leader Bayelsa needs at this moment.
“Though some hoodlums attacked me between Akwa Ibom and Rivers, they snatched my phones, but I was not discouraged, because I was eager to celebrate my party’s victory in Bayelsa State.” He said.
