As INEC declared the APC Governorship candidate as the winner of the just concluded Governorship Election, some leaders of the All Progressive Congress (APC) went to pay a Thank You Visit to the former President Of Nigeria, President Goodluck Jonathan in Bayelsa on Sunday.
On the delegation were Jigawa State Governor, Badaru Abubakar, Kebbi State Governor, Atiku Bagudu, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Niger Delta Affairs, Ita Enang, among others.
It is still unclear if it was a courtesy or ‘Thank you visit’ as being suggested in some quarters.
Jonathan reportedly fell out with Governor Seriake Dickson after the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) primaries that produced Senator Douye Diri. He was conspicuously absent at the candidates’ campaign grand finale.
