Prof Adedoja
Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Reconciliation Committee and Governor of Bayelsa State, the Honourable Henry Seriake Dickson, has commended former PDP National Chairmanship Aspirant, Prof Taoheed Adedoja for withdrawing his suit challenging the party's national convention which produced Prince Uche Seconds as National Chairman in the party's December 2017 convention.
A press statement signed by the Governor's Chief Press Secretary, Francis Ottah Agbo, quoted Dickson as having made the remarks when Adedoja visited the Governor in Abuja to thank him for his reconciliation efforts in PDP.
Dickson called on politicians to emulate Prof. Adedoja whom he described as "a man of honour!”
He said: “I want to thank Prof Adedoja for agreeing to withdraw his suit against our party. I also commend him for placing party interest first above personal interest. By this action, he has proved that he is in politics to serve and not for personal aggrandisement and this is worthy of emulation by all!
