Seriake Dickson Denies Defection, Says He Remains in PDP

Seriake Dickson, senator representing Bayelsa west, has dismissed reports claiming he has defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

Speculation had emerged earlier in the week suggesting that the former Bayelsa governor had joined the ADC, which has been positioned as a coalition platform ahead of the 2027 general elections.
However, in a statement released on Friday, Ajiri Daniels, Dickson’s aide, described the reports as false and misleading, stressing that the lawmaker has not defected from the PDP.
