Former Bayelsa State governor and prominent figure in the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Seriake Dickson, has reacted to the entry of former governors Peter Obi of Anambra State and Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State into the party.
In a statement posted on his official X account on Monday, May 4, 2026, Dickson expressed optimism that the arrival of both political figures would strengthen the NDC and contribute to building a lasting political movement capable of serving future generations.

He further stated that both politicians represent values of dedication, sacrifice, and commitment to public service. According to him, their political journeys reflect a deep concern for the welfare of citizens and a consistent desire to promote leadership rooted in service and accountability.
