Lai Mohammed Speaks On Why Buhari Has Not Congratulated Bayelsa Gov, Seraike Dickson

While speaking at a press conference in Abuja today Jan. 18th, Minister of Information & Culture, Lai Mohammed, gave reason why President Buhari has not congratulated Bayelsa state governor, Seriake Dickson, on his re-election as the governor of the state. Seriake who was the PDP flag bearer in the keenly contested election, beat Timipre Sylva who was the APC candidate ..


"This president is not in the business of interfering and intervening in elections. What if he sent a congratulatory message and they go to court and the election is overturned, will he call back the congratulatory message? This president believes that the presidency should be insulated from the conduct of elections and their outcomes"he said
