I told you Apc will Mess You up – Olusegun Bamgbose mocks Goodluck Jonathan
Barrister Olusegun Bamgbose, the National Coordinator, Concerned Advocates for Good Governance, CAGG, has mocked former President Goodluck Jonathan over the Supreme Court ruling that sacked former Bayelsa State governor-elect, David Lyon saying he had warned him that the all progressives party would mess him up politically.
Following a reported disagreement between the former President, the Governor of Bayelsa State, Seriake Dickson, and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the State, there were clear indications that he (Jonathan), his family and kinsmen backed the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, David Lyon during the governorship election in the state and also celebrated his victory.
He said “It should be recalled I did advise Jonathan to quit politics because APC may mess him up politically. This has eventually happened.
“Even though he has congratulated Duoye Diri and he advised him to unite with others to move the State forward, that is inconsequential because the deed has been done.
“One would have expected Jonathan to stand with him but he chose not to support Duoye Diri who was once his Commissioner. The Governor will certainly not respect him having abandoned him when he needed him most.
He further advised the former President to bow out of politics to redeem his image and reputation.
“Let him declare himself as an elder statesman. Presently he is in a dilemma, politically he has lost out. It’s really a sad development,” Bamgbose said.
