Asari Mangeta, Governor Seriake Dickson’s Special Adviser on Grassroots Mobilisation on Wednesday defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Recall that his Commissioner for Youth Development, Hon. Ibarakumo Otobo, has also resigned.

Mangeta was received by the executive committee of APC at the party secretariat in Yenagoa, Bayelsa capital.

He explained that he left the PDP government because he was denied the right to express his political ideals and add value to the society.

“I am a politician with a ion for service to the people”, Mangeta said.

“They know that I am an asset, they lured me with an appointment but after the elections there was no enabling environment for me to perform.

“So, I have resolved to pitch my tent with APC.”

Speaking, State Chairman of APC, Mr Jothan Amos, noted that the party would take over the state come 2020.

Amos described the sack of 28,000 civil servants in the ongoing public service reforms at a time of economic hardship as regrettable.

“The way the government carried the reforms shows that they lacked ideas and are not capable of managing reforms.

“How can you finish sacking workers and then start holding town hall meetings when the town hall meetings should have been held before reforms,” he said.

A lawmaker, Mr Israel Goli, representing Brass 1 constituency, represented ex-Gov. Timipre Sylva.

He noted that APC would replicate its performance at the federal level in Bayelsa and transform it.

"I am a politician with a ion for service to the people”, Mangeta said.

Which people

Emma Powerless would soon issue a statement condemning this.

And some idiots still think Buhari may loose.

Nigeria aint ripe for democracy or even independence. All these animals are just after their pockets, today PDP tomorrow APC next tomorrow HIV

They've Started.. I am sure that's how Democrats and Republicans switch sides when they are desperate to win in elections. Nigerian politicians have no honor, no ambition.

Not just in Bayelsa Oga but Naija @ large. Your former amiable Presido under the flagship of PDP Mr. GEJ dey play hide and seek with Atiku. Hmm.! Abeg, APC my trust..!

Hhhd

APC had Bayelsa state on a platter of gold to take last elections because the people were tired of Seriake Dickson but then Timipre Sylva came with his arrogances, talking about federal might and other such nonsense. The v rest is history. Both parties should put their houses in order in the state

Your meme sold you out completely..
Anyone who associates who associates with buhari ends up becoming like buhari ..

A CLASS of water! Indeed

What's the population of Bayelsa State that has 8 LGAs, that 28000, civil service workers will be sacked. I don't believe it

Both APC and PDP won't even smell any seat

FROM GRACE TO GRASS

The only Asari we know is that overbloated one
