The Deputy Chief of Staff to Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State, Mrs. Ebizi Brown  has come under severe attacks for her comments on the gale of defections, which has hit the PDP in the state.

Over 100 prominent members the party have decamped with thousands of their supporters to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC recently.

In a statement signed by the Coordinator of the Change Agents of Nigeria, Bayelsa Chapter, Elizabeth Ajuwa and made available to NF-Reports, the group condemned the attempt by the aide to discredit prominent politicians who had contributed immensely to the sustenance of democracy for 16 years through their membership of the PDP, which today has become a shadow of its former self.

The group wondered why Gov. Dickson's aide, who has no political experience would set a standard to judge those chieftains as spent forces.

Ajuwa lamented: "it is a display of political immaturity, ignorance and executive arrogance from a mediocre whose only known stint in politics and governance is the opportunity offered her by Gov. Dickson at a time when all the key players in the emergence of the governor have abandoned him for a more progressive and proactive party, the APC."

Ajuwa further urged Bayelsans to disregard the comments credited to the political "neophyte" who does not understand what it meant for the best political brains to ditch a party. She added that, the people of Bayelsa know better that the ship of the PDP was sinking with the massive defection which has hit the party under Seriake Dickson, whose high handedness and lack of performance has further decimated the PDP.

Ajunwa further advised the government to desist from media hype aimed at promoting a failed government and a party with discordant tunes.
