While we have agreed with Dickson that Jonathan has disappointed his primary constituency for not doing well to ameliorate the sufferings of the people, we are surprised that Gov. Dickson who was one of the prime factor for Jonathan&#8217;s poor performance is shamelessly berating the former President in the media. What moral right does he has to carpet Jonathan in such a despicable and unprintable manner?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<p><code><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- www.deltanewsroom.com --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2163942495525027\" data-ad-slot=\"1411897411\" data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/code><\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Jonathan Government was not a waste at the time he single handedly installed Dickson as the Governor of Bayelsa State? It was not also a waste when Bayelsa State was receiving huge monthly allocations to the envy of others during Goodluck&#8217;s tenure as the President of the Country? Now that the political pendulum clicked against the man, Dickson brazenly come out to make such sarcastic remarks on his benefactor. It is true of the saying that one can easily know his true friends in time of trial.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">For purposes of record, Jonathan actually failed his Ijaw\/Niger Delta people. Gov. Dickson and some of the former&#8217;s overbearing appointees from the region were the cause of his failure. Which people oriented project has the Governor executed and completed in the State inspite of the uninterrupted huge monthly allocations to the State during Jonathan&#8217;s tenure? Today, because Dickson has decided to throw caution in the wind by joining issues with the former President&#8217;s traducers, we are very sure he will criticise the man for not constructing a befitting road to his Otueke country home. However, a reasonable man will ask, on whose primary duties to develop the State?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeadvert.com\/show.php?z=30&amp;pl=13197&amp;ad_type=59&amp;rl=180\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The Governor&#8217;s uncultured homily can only buy the conscience of gullible and sycophantic thinkers to applaud him. What can he boost of in his five years of governance if not to reduce the State into a mono city state or a municipal city where Yenagoa is the only focus of the Government? What are the projects he can proudly boost of being completed across the three senatorial districts if not the accumulated unpaid civil servants&#8217; salaries despite the huge monthly allocations, the 13% derivations and the bailout funds?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><a href=\"http:\/\/newsroom247.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/JONATHAN-AND-DICKSON.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-14432\" src=\"http:\/\/newsroom247.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/JONATHAN-AND-DICKSON-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"http:\/\/newsroom247.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/JONATHAN-AND-DICKSON-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/newsroom247.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/JONATHAN-AND-DICKSON-768x433.jpg 768w, http:\/\/newsroom247.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/JONATHAN-AND-DICKSON.jpg 860w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">It is said that those who sit in glass house should not throw stone.
