The Governor of Bayelsa State and the Chairman of the Osun State PDP Governorship Primary Committee, Henry Seriake Dickson, has promised a quick resolve of the disputes arising from the Governorship primary.
Recall that Dr. Akin Ogunbiyi, the runner-up in yesterday’s Osun Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Primary election had earlier rejected the results declared and vowed to use internal mechanism of the party to seek immediate redress.
Addressing a press conference this afternoon at his Ile-Ogbo residence, Ogunbiyi insisted that the votes attributed to him at the poll were much lower than the votes he actually garnered. According to results declared at the event, Senator Ademola Adeleke scored 1569votes as against Ogunbiyi’s 1562votes.
However, Governor Dickson, in a private reply to osun.life ‘s tweet described the event as a PDP family affair and expressed optimism and confidence that it will be resolved quickly.
